Diabetes-prone BioBreeding (BBdp) rats often present an enteropathy that may precede the onset of autoimmune insulitis. The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of sex, the time course, the strain specificity, the distribution along the intestinal tract and the effect of diet for the changes in the activity of gut invertase, maltase and lactase found in BBdp rats, as compared with both...
