Morphological preservation of structure was observed and an increase in the levels of alkaline phosphatase and a decrease in the lactic dehydrogenase from coeliac mucosa was noted. Similar trend in non-coeliac mucosa were not statistically significant. The initial elevted lactic dehydrogenase activity in coeliac mucosa has not previously been reported.
