Cytochemical and autoradiographic study of nuclei in zinc-deficient rat buccal epithelium.
Ammoniacal silver stain showed that there was a decrease in nucleohistones in zinc-deficient rat buccal hyperplastic epithelium as compared to control. Autoradiographic study showed that there was decreased incorporation of 3H-arginine and 3H-lysine in the hyperplastic epithelium.
