The study aimed to assess changes in the activity of intestinal enzymes, glucose absorption, transporter content (SGLT1, GLUT2) and intestinal structure in young Wistar rats with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). To induce these conditions in the T2D (n = 4) and IGT (n = 6) rats, we used a high-fat diet and a low dose of streptozotocin. Rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD) (n = 6) or a standard diet (SCD) (n = 6) were used as controls. The results showed that in T2D rats, the ability of the small intestine to absorb glucose was higher in comparison to HFD rats (p &lt; 0.05). This was accompanied by a tendency towards an increase in the number of enterocytes on the villi of the small intestine in the absence of changes in the content of SGLT1 and GLUT2 in the brush border membrane of the enterocytes. T2D rats also showed lower maltase and alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity in the jejunal mucosa compared to the IGT rats (p &lt; 0.05) and lower AP activity in the colon contents compared to the HFD (p &lt; 0.05) and IGT (p &lt; 0.05) rats. Thus, this study provides insights into the adaptation of the functional and structural parameters of the small intestine in the development of type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance in young representatives.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu14020385","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,17]],"date-time":"2022-01-17T20:46:03Z","timestamp":1642452363000},"page":"385","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Effect of Type 2 Diabetes and Impaired Glucose Tolerance on Digestive Enzymes and Glucose Absorption in the Small Intestine of Young Rats"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Lyudmila V.","family":"Gromova","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alexandr S.","family":"Polozov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizaveta V.","family":"Savochkina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna S.","family":"Alekseeva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yulia V.","family":"Dmitrieva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oleg V.","family":"Kornyushin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Almazov National Medical Research Center, Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, 2 Akkuratova Str., 197341 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrey A.","family":"Gruzdkov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pavlov Institute of Physiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, 6 Makarova emb., 199034 Saint-Petersburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"672","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpeds.2014.11.029","article-title":"Rapid deterioration of insulin secretion in obese adolescents preceding the onset of type 2 diabetes","volume":"166","author":"Elder","year":"2015","journal-title":"J.
