From: Calcium and Vitamin D increase mRNA levels for the growth control hIK1 channel in human epidermal keratinocytes but functional channels are not observed

Figure 3

VitD modestly upregulates mRNA for hIK1 (and INV, TG-1) in explant cultured skin biopsies. Real-time PCR analysis of mRNA expression levels (normalized to GAPDH) in human skin biopsies from healthy donors. Each column represents the mean ± SEM fold change in mRNA levels for three treated biopsies relative to three untreated, time-matched controls. Changes in gene expression did not reach statistical significance.
