High impact information on Slc34a2

  • Quantitative RT-PCR analyses revealed that the amount of Npt2b mRNA, an isoform of Npt2, in Hyp mouse tooth germs was significantly lower than that in wild-type mice, in both in vivo and in vitro experiments [1].
  • In addition, tooth germs from wild-type mice cultured in medium supplemented with antisense oligo-deoxynucleotide for Phex also showed a reduction of Npt2b mRNA expression [1].
  • The presence of NaPi-2a and NaPi-2b, gene products of Npt-2a and Npt-2b, was verified in vivo by immunohistochemistry on mouse teeth [2].
