Expression levels of mRNA correlated with bone metabolism. Relative expression levels of target mRNA are graphed with reference to that in Vit.D+ UV− group as defined 1.0. Expression levels of target mRNA were normalized with those of Gapdh mRNA. (A) Relative ALP mRNAs. (B) Relative Osteocalcin mRNAs. (C) Relative Runx2 mRNAs. (D) Relative expression levels of Osterix mRNAs. (E) Relative RANKL mRNAs. (F) Relative expression levels of NFκb mRNAs. (G) Relative expression levels of NFATc1 mRNAs. (H) Relative expression levels of TNFα mRNAs. *p < 0.05. Vit.D− vitamin D-deficient diet; Vit.D+ vitamin D-replete diet; UV ultraviolet irradiation; ALP alkaline phosphatase; Runx2 Runt-related transcription factor 2; RANKL receptor activator of NFκB ligand; NFκB nuclear factor kappa B; NFATc1 nuclear factor of activated T cells.
