Effect of glutamine on the mRNA level of key enzymes of malate-aspartate shuttle in the rat intestine subjected to ischemia reperfusion Efeito da glutamina sobre o nível de RNA Mensageiro das enzimas-chave do ciclo malato-aspartato no intestino de ratos submetidos à isquemia e reperfusão
PURPOSE: To determine the effects of oral L-glutamine (L-Gln) and the dipeptide l-alanyl-glutamine (L-Ala-Gln) upon the activity of the malate-aspartate shuttle in the rat distal small intestine following ischemia and reperfusion. METHODS: Seventy-two Wistar rats (350-400g), were randomized in 2 gro...
