Physiol. 30): R793-R801, BUDDGTON, RANDAL DIAMOND. 1991.-The ability omnivores and herbivores to regulate reversibly their testal brush-border nutrient ers is functionally related to the unpredictably variable composition their natural diets. To determe whether are able similarly to regulate the activities their testal nutrient ers, we fed to three species vertebrates that are carnivorous as adults (cats, mk, and leopard frogs) diets with either at least 50% digestible carbohydrate or with negligible carbohydrate levels. Rates for the sugarsglucose and ctose and the amo acids (AAs) artate, ce, lyse, and le were measuredthroughout the teste (only le and glucose the frogs) by an vitro evertedsleevemethod. Although all three speciesconsumemuch carbohydrate durg early development, only the mk was able to regulate sugarer activity response changes to levels carbohydrate. contrast, the sugarers the cat were unresponsiveto varyg carbohydrate levels, and long-term feedg a high-carbohydrate diet causeddown sugar frogs.
