DM Notes 1.14.16

Articles: A vertebrate model of extreme physiological regulation -mention of glucose transporter regulation gene, SGLT1

Adaptive responses to feeding in Burmese pythons: pay before pumping, 1995 -suggests up regulation of intestinal nutrient transporters and hydrolytic enzymes (Karasov and Diamond; Tolaza et al.) -addressed sampling issue from intestines? what if it was all serosa or all mucosa? what if it was different between the treatments?

Plan of attack: -look for housekeeping genes for uniquely the intestine, use those to tell if we get the right tissue -genes for cell proliferation? is brush border getting bigger because of cell division (we can find those proteins), or cells getting bigger? -uptake, proliferation, and housekeeping
