Intussusception in the Syrian golden hamster.

Of a series of ninety-six young male Syrian Golden hamsters, 13% developed lethargy, anorexia, diarrhoea and colocolic intussusception when their diet was changed from a basal laboratory-grade rodent chow to a nutritionally complete semi-purified diet. Histologically, the colon of the hamsters with intussusception had markedly reduced mucus production. Plasma levels of gastric inhibitory polypeptide ( GIP) were reduced 80% (P less than 0.01) but peptide tyrosine/tyrosine and enteroglucagon in plasma were increased 290 and 526% respectively in hamsters with intussusception. Variations in dietary fatty acid composition had no effect but intussusception was not observed after changing the dietary carbohydrate from sucrose to starch.[1]
