A Comparative Study on the Distribution Pattern of Endocrine Cells in the Gastrointestinal Tract of Two Small Alpine Mammals, Plateau Zokor (<i>Eospalax baileyi</i>) and Plateau Pika (<i>Ochotona curzoniae</i>)

A Comparative Study on the Distribution Pattern of Endocrine Cells in the Gastrointestinal Tract of Two Small Alpine Mammals, Plateau Zokor (<i>Eospalax baileyi</i>) and Plateau Pika (<i>Ochotona curzoniae</i>)

Endocrine cells can secrete a variety of gastrointestinal hormones that regulate gastrointestinal digestion and absorption, which, in turn, play an important role in animal growth, metabolism, and acclimation. The small alpine mammals, plateau zokor (<i>Eospalax baileyi</i>) and plateau...
