유당(乳糖)을 함유(含有)하지 않은 분유식(粉乳食)을 섭취한 흰쥐의 장관내(腸管內)에는 Casein함유식(含有食)을 섭취한 때와 마찬가지로 C.P.P.가 생성(生成)되며 이 C.P.P.에 의해 장관내(腸管內) 칼슘이 증가(增加)되며 소장하부(小腸下部)에서의 칼슘흡수(吸收)가 촉진(促進)되는 것을 밝혔다. 그러나 10% 또는 30% Lactose를 첨가한 경우, 위의 제(諸) 현상(現象)은 보이지 않았다. 이것은 장관내(腸管內)에서의 칼슘의 가용화(可溶化) 및 흡수(吸收)에 대 한 C.P.P의 촉진효과(促進效果)가 유당(乳糖)과는 독립적(獨立的)으로 일어나는 것임을 시사함이다.
The effects of lactose on the formation of casein phosphopeptide (CPP), the increment of soluble calcium and the enhancement of calcium absorption by dietary casein in the intestinal tract were investigated. Rats were fed a lactose-free diet, 10% lactose diet and 30% lactose diet containing powdered milk. In rats receiving a lactose-free powdered milk diet, CPP formation was confirmed by gel filtration of the intestinal content on Sephadex G -25 and the amount of soluble calcium was increased in the small intestine and calcium absorption, measured by the ligated ideal loops in situ was enhanced. However, In rats receiving a powdered milk diet containing 10% lactose or 30% lactose, the similar effects were not seen. These observations indicate that CPP-stimulated effects on soluble calcium and calcium absorption in the small intestine are not dependent upon lactose.
