Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) increased proximal jejunum total weight. Piglets delivered 12 days preterm were randomized to control (CON) or GLP-2 treatment and given TPN for 2 days. On day 3, total parenteral nutrition was withdrawn and enteral feeds were initiated for 96 hours. GLP-2 significantly increased proximal jejunum weight, whereas stomach weight was significantly reduced compared with CON.
