Impaired pulmonary clearance of pneumococci in neonatal rats.

abstract：:Small bowel resection decreases brush border membrane (BBM) glucose uptake kinetics. Oral epidermal growth factor (EGF) returns net glucose transport across intact tissue to control levels despite persistence of a defect in BBM glucose uptake. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of resection and EGF t...
