The presence of alkaline phosphatase in the coronal suture of rat
Acta Anatomica
|January 1, 1978
Abstract:
The purpose of the present study was to determine the presence of alkaline phosphatase within the coronal suture, the dura mater and the pericranium. The histologic sections reveal that no alkaline phosphatase activity could be observed within the coronal suture as well as the dura mater, while the pericranium did contain this enzyme. These findings are brought in relation with the occurrence of synostoses, which can be induced under experimental conditions.
