Induction of UO-44 gene expression by tamoxifen in the rat uterus and ovary.

abstract：:Stimulators of bone resorption, such as PTH, 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25-(OH)2D3], or prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), do not cause calcium release from cultured calvaria of the genetically determined osteopetrotic microphthalmic (mi/ mi) mouse, due to a defect in the function of osteoclasts. To investigate the capaci...
