Diabetic intestinal growth adaptation and glucagon-like peptide 2 in the rat: effects of dietary fibre
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
Dietary fibre influence growth and function of the upper gastrointestinal tract. This study investigates the importance of dietary fibre in intestinal growth in experimental diabetes, and correlates intestinal growth with plasma levels of the intestinotrophic factor, glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2).
