โœฆ Synopsis

Complexed iron (III) induces a local calcification of soft tissues in mice that is strongly dependent upon the nature of the complexing molecule. Ferric lactate is much more effective in inducing calcification than iron dextran.

Tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (AP) plays a well-known role in bone mineralization. This role was first suggested by a human AP deficiency disease, hypophosphatasia. Further studies with AP gene knockout mice have also suggested a role for AP in mineralization. However, AP is also expressed
