In this study, body weight levels of glucose, insulin and triglyceride in blood and glucosidase activity of the small intestine were investigated to determine the effect of Sangbaegpitang and Supungsungiwhan on the glucose metabolism of db/db mice. The GLUT4 mRNA of muscle tissue and the Acetyl CoA Carboxylase and the activation rate of GLUT2 mRNA of liver tissue were measured by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method and by the vitro transcription. The results were obtained as follows: 1. In the Sangbaegpitang administration group, (1) The level of triglyceride was decreased significantly and the glucosidase activity of the small intestine was inhibited remarkably, (2) The amounts of the GLUT4 mRNA in muscle tissue and Acetyl CoA Carboxylase mRNA in liver tissue were increased significantly. (3) Though glucose level in both fasting and non-fasting, were decreased and the insulin level in blood was increased, the results showed no statistical significance. 2. In the Supungsungiwhan administration group, (1) The levels of glucose and triglyceride were decreased significantly in the blood of non-fasting animals. (2) The glucosidase activity of small intestine was inhibited markedly and the amounts of GLUT4 mRNA of muscle tissue and GLUT2 mRNA of liver tissue were increased significantly. (3) The glucose levels in the fasting group were reduced, while insulin level was increased but showed no statistical significance, Based on the above results, our conclusions are as follows: Sangbaegpitang & Supungsungiwhan are thought to be capable of inhibiting the activity glucosidase, the enzyme which influences carbohydrate metabolism in the small intestine of db/db mice(the experimental diabetic model) and delaying the absorption of carbohydrate, thus proving effective on inhibiting the increase of non-fasting glucose level effectively. Futhermore Sangbaegpitang and Supungsungiwhan are though: to be capable of preventing the composition of free fatty acids by restoring the production of GLUT4 mRNA of muscle tissues and GLUT2 mRNA of liver tissues. Those results suggests that above prescriptions can be applied to non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus in order to improve insulin resistance.

흰쥐 적출소장의 수축성에 미치는 GABA의 영향을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. GABA는 소장을 이완시켰으며 그 이완 작용은 십이지장, 공장 그리고 회장의 순이었다. GABA A수용체 효현제인 muscimol 역시 소장을 이완시켰으며, 그 효능의 강도는 십이지장, 공장 그리고 회장의 순이었다. 그러나 GABA B수용체 효현제인 baclofen은 소장의 운동성에 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 2. 상경적 GABA A수용체 길항제인 bicuculline과 비 상경적 GABA A수용체 길항제인 picrotoxin은 십이지장에 대한 GABA와 muscimol의 이완 작용을 현저히 억제시켰다. 그리고 bicuculline의 억제 작용이 picrotoxin 보다 강하였다. 3. Sodium channel blocker인 tetrodotoxin은 GABA의 이완 작용을 봉쇄하였다. 4. 신경절 봉쇄적인 hexamethonium은 십이지장에 대한 GABA의 이완작용을 길항하지 못하였다. 이상의 실험 결과로 볼 때 흰쥐 소장의 자발 수축운동에 대한 GABA의 이완작용은 소장이 부위에 따라 다르게 나타나며, 그 작용은 postganglionic presynaptic neuron에 존재하는 GABA A 수용체에 작용함으로써 나타나는 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different methods of feeding and processing of diets on performance, morphological changes in the small intestine and nutrient digestibility of young pigs. A total of 120 pigs (Youkshire${\times}$Landrace${\times}$Duroc; initial body weight of $5.83{\pm}0.67kg$) were randomly allotted into six treatments in a $2{\times}3$ factorial design. Treatments were 1) dry feeding with a mash diet (DM), 2) dry feeding with a pelleted diet (DP), 3) dry feeding with an expanded crumble diet (DEC), 4) wet feeding with a mash diet (WM), 5) wet feeding with a pelleted diet (WP), 6) wet feeding with an expanded crumble diet (WEC). Average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) were not significantly (p>0.05) different among treatments. However, feed conversion ratio (FCR) was significantly improved when pigs fed a pelleted diet or an expanded crumble diet. Pigs fed an expanded crumble diet showed 9.2% and 17.3% improvement in ADG and FCR compared with those fed a mash diet. The morphological changes in the small intestine were examined at the termination (4 weeks after weaning) of the experiment. Differences in morphological changes of gastrointestinal tract were not significant among treatments. Though villus height was not significantly affected by feeding method or feed processing, the villus height of weaned pigs tended to be preserved by wet feeding. The use of a pelleted diet also helped to prevent the shortening of villus height. Pigs fed a WP diet maintained the highest villus height at all parts of the small intestine. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in nutrient digestibility among treatments. However, nutrient digestibility for pigs fed a pelleted diet had a higher than that of pigs fed mash diets. Especially, pigs fed a WP diet digested 5.3% more P each day than those fed a DM diet. Compared with the mash diet, the expanded crumble diet decreased feed cost per kg weight gain by 15%. The net profit per pig was 79% higher in the expanded crumble diet pigs than in mash diet pigs. In conclusion, this study suggests that feeding processed diets to piglets can be more beneficial in terms of FCR and production cost.

Intestinal phosphate (Pi) absorption across the apical membrane of small intestinal epithelial cells is mainly mediated by the type IIb Na-coupled phosphate co-transporter (NaPi-IIb), but its expression and regulation in the chicken remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the mRNA and protein levels of NaPi-IIb in three regions of chicken small intestine, and related their expression levels to the rate of net phosphate absorption. Our results showed that maximal phosphate absorption occurs in the jejunum, however the highest expression levels of NaPi-IIb mRNA and protein occurs in the duodenum. In response to a low-Pi diet (TP 0.2%), there is an adaptive response restricted to the duodenum, with increased brush border membrane (BBM) Na-Pi transport activity and NaPi-IIb protein and mRNA abundance. However, when switched from a low-(TP 0.2%) to a normal diet (TP 0.6%) for 4 h, there is an increase in BBM NaPi-IIb protein abundance in the jejunum, but no changes in BBM NaPi-IIb mRNA. Therefore, our study indicates that Na-Pi transport activity and NaPi-IIb protein expression are differentially regulated in the duodenum vs the jejunum in the chicken.

This study was performed to investigate the influcence of mugwort on the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration in rats. Five groups of rats were fed each experimental diet containing 0%, 5%, 15%, 30% of mugwork powder for 10 weeks. Duodenal ulcer was induced by cysteamine injection (400mg/100g body weight) after 10 weeks of feeding experimental diets (C-0, C-5, C-15, C-30). Control animal that fed 0% mugwork powder added diet were injected saline (S-0) to compare with cysteamine injected groups. When the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine-HCI administration, all animals in the C-0 group formed erosion and perforating ulcer was found in 44% of animals. Higher the added mugwork ratio, more inhibited of the duodenal ulcer induced by cysteamine administration (C-5, C-15). But when the ratio of added mugwort is 30%, the inhibition effect disappeared (C-30). The alkaline phospatase activities were lower at the duodenal mucosa and small intestinal mucosa in the cysteamine treated groups(p<0.05). The acid phophatase activities were higher at the stomach, small intestine and large intestine of the cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, the changes of enzyme activites were lessended. The maltast activities were lower at the duodental mucosa and small intestinal mucosa of cysteamine treated groups. But in mugwort added diet group, maltase activites were recovered.

A thirty-five week old elk was referred for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) confirmation from Chungnam province in Korea. Necropsy revealed much bloody contents in the lumen of small and large intestines, and reddening of its mucosa. Microscopically, few coccidia showing various developmental stages were infiltrated in lamina propria of small intestine with granulomatous inflammation and congestion. They were identified as Eimeria spp. according to their location and morphological characteristics. Because fecal examination and oocyst culture were not available, the species of the Eimeria could not be confirmed. There were no detection of pathogenic bacteria such as clostridia and virus in intestinal contents. CWD was shown to be negative in immunohistochemistry test. In conclusion, it was the first Eimeria case detected in small intestine of Korean domestic elk as far as we know although Eimeria spp. were not the main cause of death.

Alimentary lymphoma accounts for approximately 5% of neoplasm and diffuse lesion is more common than solitary nodular form in dogs. An eleven year-old male Yorkshire terrier was examined because of nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms such as anorexia and vomiting for 10 days. An abdominal mass was palpated, which was originated from small intestinal wall in abdominal ultrasonography. Small intestine was obstructed by hypoechoic mass and lost normal layering and measured 24.5m. After fine-needle aspiration, septic peritonitis due to intestinal rupture occurred and emergency surgery was performed. Solitary mass was found in small intestine and diagnosed as alimentary lymphoma through histopathologic examination. Conclusively, abdominal ultrasonouaphy could verify the thickened bowel, loss of wall layering and decrease of motility and percutaneous ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration is considered as useful diagnostic technique, especially in nodular form of alimentary lymphoma.
