Effect of decerebration on the enzymatic system of stomach and intestine of Indian cattle leech, Poecilobdella granulosa.
Experiments on decerebration have brought to light an interesting inverse relationship between the phosphatases of two digestive components, at least up to a week. With the activation of all the gastric phosphatases, intestinal phosphatases are inhibited. This has been correlated with metabolic metameric control in leech.
