Lactase-Phlorizin Hydrolase and Sucrase-Isomaltase Genes Are Expressed Differently Along the Villus-Crypt Axis of Rat Jejunum1

ABSTRACT Lactase-phlorizin hydrolase (LPH) and sucrase-isomaltase (SI) are two disaccharidases specifically expressed in small intestinal absorptive cells. We previously showed that the transcripts of both genes are elevated within 12 h of carbohydrate intake. To examine at which locus of villus-crypt axis this response to dietary carbohydrate occurs, 6-wk-old rats were fed a low-carbohydrate diet (5% energy) for 7 d, and then force-fed either the low-carbohydrate ...
