Abstract
Starvation for 48 h reduced the activity of sucrase relative to unit length in rat proximal small intestine by approximately 30%, irrespective of whether mucosal scrapings, isolated villus epithelial cells or brush border membranes were investigated. Sucrase activity relative to unit weight, unit protein or to unit DNA of intestinal epithelium did not change.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
