Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharides decrease molecular expression and activity of disaccharidases and aminopeptidases in weaned pigs

Background:Escherichia coli populations in the gut increase after weaning, releasing cell wall lipopolysaccharides (LPS), which are potent pro-inflammatory substances.Objective: this study evaluated LPS intake effects on protein expression and activity of intestinal disaccharidases and aminopetidase...
