[Correlation between alkaline phosphatase activity and the degree of villi atrophy of the intestinal mucosa in children with glutenic enteropathy].
Eight children with primary and secondary enteropathy were examined, in whom predominantly advanced partial atrophy and subtotal atrophy of the villous apparatus were established. Enzymic histochemical study of the activity of alkaline phosphatase showed correlation with the degree of villous atrophy. Our results confirm that the alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme, indicating regenerative activity of enterocytes.
