Plasma concentration of bioactive glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2; A) and proglucagon expression in colon (B) in rats subjected to distal small bowel resection (60% jejunoileal resection + cecectomy) and maintained with total parental nutrition (TPN) plus GLP-2 infusion. The treatment groups included the following: TPN control (no GLP-2, n = 5); sustained GLP-2 [1–18 days (d), n = 7]; early GLP-2 (1–7 days, killed at 7 days, n = 10, or 18 days, n = 8); and delayed GLP-2 (12–18 days, n = 8). The oral group includes nonsurgical reference animals fed ad libitum, n = 8. Values are means + SE. a,b,c Means with different superscripts are significantly different (P < 0.05).
