title: [Relationship between the degree of the small intestine motility and the activity of hexokinase in its smooth muscle layer].
abstract: Interrelationship between the motility of the small intestine and the intensity of energy formation in its smooth muscle layer was studied. The hexokinase activity was found to be significantly higher in the muscle layer of the duodenum as compared to that activity in the ileum and jejunum. No statistically significant differences in the hexokinase activity were revealed between the ileum and jejunum. The results obtained showed hexokinase activity to be highly variable, these values directly correlating with the motor activity of the intestinal muscle layer, representing the contractile apparatus of the intestine.
