Changes in Calcitonin Receptor Binding in the Shell Gland of Laying Hens (Gallus domesticus) During the Oviposition Cycle

Changes in Calcitonin Receptor Binding in the Shell Gland of Laying Hens (Gallus domesticus) During the Oviposition Cycle

This study was conducted to examine calcitonin (CT) receptor binding in the membrane fraction of the endometrium of the shell gland of laying hens by the use of [125I] CT binding assays. Specific [125I] CT binding was found in the endometrium of the shell gland and increased during the first 1h of i...
