Abstract:
:The effects of 10-day bilateral adrenalectomy on morphometry, proliferation, and apoptosis were determined in the small intestine of 3-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats. The activities of sucrase, lactase, and its respective mRNA, aminopeptidase N, and intestinal alkaline phosphatase were also evaluated. Adrenalectomy lead to partial atrophy and disorganization of the epithelium, with an increased number of goblet and Paneth cells and a reduction of crypt cell proliferation paralleled by a marked increase in villus apoptosis. Biochemical assays revealed that aminopeptidase N and intestinal alkaline phosphatase activities were significantly decreased, whereas disaccharidases were increased by adrenalectomy. The corresponding induction of lactase mRNA suggests an active response of the epithelium. In conclusion, adrenalectomy modified maturation and the differentiation processes of the small intestinal mucosa, especially in the proximal part of the small intestine. This result points to an important role of adrenals and glucocorticoids in the trophic status of the adult small intestinal mucosa.
