In order to know the adaptive changes of small intestine regions (duodenum, and proximal, medial and distal jejunum-ileum) due to the reproductive stage (virgin, pregnancy and lactation), the weight, mucosal proportion, mucosal DNA and protein contents and protein/DNA ratio in female Wistar rats were measured. Pregnancy induces hypertrophy of the proximal half of the small intestine (duodenum and proximal jejunum-ileum), whereas lactation induces hyperplasia in all small intestinal regions and also hypertrophy but only in the duodenum.
为了解雌性Wistar大鼠小肠不同区域(十二指肠、空肠-回肠近端、中段和远端)在生殖阶段(未孕、妊娠和泌乳)的适应性变化,对其体重、黏膜比例、黏膜DNA和蛋白质含量以及蛋白质/DNA比值进行了测量。妊娠会导致小肠近端(十二指肠和空肠-回肠近端)肥大,而泌乳会导致所有小肠区域增生,也会导致肥大,但仅在十二指肠。
