title: Comparative expression of the mRNA for three intestinal hydrolases during postnatal development in the rat.
abstract: The distribution of the mRNA for intestinal aminopeptidase-N, lactase-phlorizin hydrolase and sucrase-isomaltase was compared during rat postnatal development as well as along the longitudinal axis of the intestinal tract including small-intestine and colon. We found out that each mRNA exhibited a specific pattern of accumulation, suggesting proper regulation steps for the expression of the corresponding digestive enzymes.
