| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to investigate the center of sucking reflex in mice by the histological methods. The sensory input from upper jaw is important for sucling reflex, however, it has not taken part in suckling reflex yet at post natal days 12. Calcineurin exists abundantly in the central nervous system. We comfirmed that calcineurin took part in the formation of tooth.
