Cornea Cell Diffusion Coefficients: 4-Week-Old Mice

Genotype	Cell Type
	Superficial Squamous Cell	Middle Wing Cell	Inner Basal Cell
VDR+/+	14.21 ± 1.18	9.05 ± 3.72* (P < 0.05)	6.98 ± 2.29† (P < 0.01)
VDR+/−	12.99 ± 1.36	9.87 ± 1.58* (P < 0.05)	7.93 ± 2.54† (P < 0.01)
VDR−/−	14.32 ± 2.61	8.91 ± 2.23* (P < 0.05)	5.82 ± 0.81† (P < 0.01)

Data represent 93 superficial squamous cells, 64 middle wing cells, and 101 inner basal cells from 10 corneas of 5 VDR^+/+ mice; 119 superficial squamous cells, 44 middle wing cells, and 111 inner basal cells from 10 corneas of 5 VDR^+/− mice; and 88 superficial squamous cells, 74 middle wing cells, and 76 inner basal cells from 10 corneas of 5 VDR^−/− mice.

^*P < 0.05 middle wing cell versus superficial squamous cell for all genotypes.

^†P < 0.01 inner basal cell versus superficial squamous cell for all genotypes.
