  • Title: Control of disaccharidase activities in brush-border membranes of guinea pig fetuses: a role of pancreatic proteases?
    Author: McNamara D, Teitelbaum J, Potier M.
    Journal: Biomedicine; 1981 Sep; 35(4):122-4. PubMed ID: 7028147.
    Abstract:
    The intestinal brush-border disaccharidases most resistant to pancreatic protease digestion in vitro are lactase and trehalase. When compared to maltase and sucrase, they are also those which showed the largest increase during development of guinea pig fetuses. These results suggest that pancreatic proteases may play a role in the control of brush-border disaccharidase activities during fetal development.
