Abstract:Activities of digestive enzymes (maltase, alkaline phosphatase, aminopeptidase M, and glycyl-L-leucine dipeptidase) in small and large intestine, liver, and kidney were studied in rats of different ages kept at the period of lactation under conditions of the standard (8 individuals per litter) and low (3 individuals) number of pups per litter. The low-protein diet for 10 days at once after weaning was found to change the mass of organs and their digestive enzyme activities in all studied rat groups. The revealed changes were more prominent in rats kept under conditions of excessive breast feeding. In adult animals of this group, distribution of the alkaline phosphatase activity along the small intestine differed from that in control rats. The obtained results seem to confirm that any disturbance of the nutrition quality in early ontogenesis leads to disturbance of the «metabolic programming of enzyme systems» of digestive organs.
