Abstract
Hyperglycemic hyperinsulinemia cannot stimulate intestinal protein synthesis in healthy individuals but does so in conditions characterized by an altered somatotropic axis such as diabetes. Only in a state of growth hormone resistance (high growth hormone but low insulin like growth factor [IGF-1] concentrations), extra insulin may acutely reverse the impaired, growth-hormone-induced IGF-1 release, thereby exerting anabolic actions at the intestinal tract. Growth hormone resistance can be also found in patients after surgical stress. Therefore, we wanted to test the hypothesis whether hyperglycemic hyperinsulinemia would stimulate ileal protein synthesis in the latter condition. Mass spectrometry techniques (capillary gas chromatography/combustion isotope ratio mass spectrometry) were used to directly determine the incorporation rate of 1-[(13)C]-leucine into ileal mucosal protein. All subjects had an ileostomy, which allowed easy access to the ileal mucosa, and consecutive sampling from the same tissue was performed during continuous isotope infusion (0.16 mumol/kg min). Isotopic enrichments and fractional protein synthesis were determined at baseline (period I) and after a 4-hour glucose infusion (170 mg/kg/h) or after infusion of saline (control group) (period II). In controls, ileal protein synthesis declined significantly during prolonged isotope infusion (period I: 1.11 +/- 0.14%/h, period II: 0.39 +/- 0.13%/h, p < .01). In contrast, ileal protein synthesis remained constant during glucose infusion (period I: 1.32 +/- 0.35%/h, period II: 1.33 +/- 0.21%/h, n.s. vs period I, but p < .005 vs the corresponding value at the end of period II in the control group). Using the continuous tracer infusion technique, ileal protein synthesis seemingly declines over a short time in control subjects. We found evidence that this artificial decline was due to mass effects of a rapidly turning over mucosa protein pool in which an isotopic plateau was reached during the experiment and of which the size amounted to approximately 4% of the total mixed protein pool. Maintenance of ileal protein synthesis during glucose infusion therefore indicates a rise of ileal protein synthesis in a slowly turning over protein pool. This effect in postsurgical patients would be compatible with the concept of intestinal insulin action to depend on the specific clinical state (eg, growth hormone resistance).

Abstract
In ruminants, microbial-derived nucleic acids are a major source of N and are absorbed as nucleosides by small intestinal epithelia. Although the biochemical activities of 2 nucleoside transport systems have been described for cattle, little is known regarding the regulation of their gene expression. This study was conducted to test 2 hypotheses: (1) the small intestinal epithelia of beef cattle differentially express mRNA for 3 concentrative (CNT1, 2, 3) and 2 equilibrative (ENT1, 2) nucleoside transporters (NT), and (2) expression of these NT is responsive to small intestine luminal supply of rumen-derived microbes (hence, nucleosides), energy (cornstarch hydrolysate, SH), or both. Eighteen ruminally and abomasally catheterized Angus steers (260 +/- 17 kg of BW) were fed an alfalfa cube-based diet at 1.33x NE(m) requirement. Six steers in each of 3 periods were blocked by BW (heavy vs. light). Within each block, 3 steers were randomly assigned to 3 treatments (n = 6): ruminal and abomasal water infusion (control), ruminal SH infusion/abomasal water infusion, or ruminal water infusion/abomasal SH infusion. The dosage of SH infusion amounted to 20% of ME intake. After a 14-or 16-d infusion period, steers were slaughtered, and duodenal, jejunal, and ileal epithelia were harvested for total RNA extraction and the relative amounts of mRNA expressed were determined using real-time RT-PCR quantification methodologies. All 5 NT mRNA were found expressed by each epithelium, but their abundance differed among epithelia. Specifically, jejunal expression of all 5 NT mRNA was higher than that by the ileum, whereas jejunal expression of CNT1, CNT3, and ENT1 mRNA was higher, or tended to be higher, than duodenal expression. Duodenal expression of CNT2, CNT3, and ENT2 mRNA was higher than ileal expression. With regard to SH infusion treatments, ruminal infusion increased duodenal expression of CNT3 (67%), ENT1 (51%), and ENT2 (39%) mRNA and ileal expression of CNT3 (210%) and ENT2 (65%) mRNA. Abomasal infusion increased (54%) ileal expression of ENT2 mRNA and tended to increase (50%) jejunal ENT2 mRNA expression. This study has uniquely characterized the pattern of NT mRNA expression by growing beef cattle and found that the mRNA abundance for CNT3, ENT1, and ENT2 in small intestinal epithelia can be increased by increasing the luminal supply of nucleotides (CNT3, ENT1, ENT2) or glucose (ENT2).

Abstract
Forty crossbred beef steers (243 +/- 2 kg of BW) with ruminal and abomasal infusion catheters were used to test 2 hypotheses: 1) visceral mass is responsive to energy input and site of carbohydrate (CHO) infusion and 2) rate and site of adipose accretion are dependent on site of CHO infusion and complexity. Treatments included a pelleted, forage-based, basal diet fed at 161 (LI) or 214 (HI) kcal of ME/(kg of BW(0.75) x d), LI plus ruminal (R-SH) or abomasal (A-SH) infusion of a partial starch hydrolysate (SH), and LI plus abomasal infusion of glucose (A-G). The basal diet was fed in 12 equal portions daily at 2-h intervals, with starch and glucose infused over a 22-h period at rates of 12.6 and 14.4 g/(kg of BW(0.75) x d). After 35 d of infusion, steers were slaughtered; and visceral organ and adipose mass, subcutaneous adipose thickness over the 5th and 12th rib, and LM intramuscular fat concentration were determined. Total intake energy (IE) increased (P = 0.0001) with ME intake. Dietary IE was similar between LI and CHO treatments, but total IE increased (P < 0.001) with CHO infusion. Greater dietary ME intake and CHO infusion increased or tended (P < or = 0.09) to increase final BW and HCW. As a percentage of empty BW, total stomach complex, rumen, omasum, liver, pancreas, and kidney weights were greater (P < or = 0.05) for HI vs. LI. Stomach complex, rumen, pancreas, and kidney weights as a percentage of empty BW were greater (P < or = 0.05) for R-SH vs. A-SH. Compared with ASH, A-G increased (P < or = 0.02) total and mucosal weights from the 10-cm sections of the ileum. Increases in rumen mass were associated with no change or an increase in rumen total and mucosal DNA concentrations. Greater dietary ME tended (P = 0.06) to increase subcutaneous fat thickness at the 5th rib but did not affect alimentary adipose accretion on an empty BW basis. Omental and total alimentary adipose weights were increased (P < or = 0.04) by A-G compared with A-SH. Although SH infusion did not alter adiposity, there was a consistent numerical pattern in total alimentary and subcutaneous fat depots with CHO infusion (A-G > ASH > R-SH). Our findings demonstrate that increasing ruminal CHO supply results in a disproportionate increase in rumen mass, whereas increasing small intestinal CHO supply does not alter gastrointestinal organ mass. Small intestinal energy in the form of glucose resulted in greater adipose accretion, particularly the omental depot.

Abstract
Although early enteral feeding has been shown to benefit cutaneous healing when compared to parenteral feeding, the effect of the route of nutritional support in gastrointestinal anastomotic healing has not been defined. The aim of the present study was to determine whether the route of nutritional support influences colonic anastomotic healing. Twenty male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 270 to 290 grams underwent identical surgical manipulation consisting of central venous catheterization, gastrostomy insertion, and distal colonic anastomosis (single-layer, inverted). Identical nutrient infusates composed of 4.25% amino acids, 25% dextrose, and vitamins were administered, with half the animals receiving the infusions via the gastrostomy and the other half via the venous catheter. Animals were killed 5 days after surgery. There were no differences in nutritional parameters between the parenterally and enterally fed groups. Colonic anastomotic bursting pressure was significantly higher in the enterally fed group (180 +/- 6 vs. 150 +/- 11 mm Hg; P <0.01). The measured insoluble collagen and total protein content in anastomotic tissue were enhanced in the enterally supported group. The fraction of soluble (newly synthesized) collagen did not differ between the two groups. The data demonstrate that the route of nutrient administration influences colonic anastomotic healing. The preservation of colonic structural collagen in the enteral group may improve the ability of the gut to hold sutures and thus enhance anastomotic healing.

Abstract
The management of short bowel syndrome requires long-term nutritional support and monitoring, medication, and occasionally additional surgical procedures. Constant attention is required to ensure adequate adaptation of the gut. This article reviews the normal function of the small bowel, adaptation following resection, total parenteral and enteral nutrition, and the role of adjunctive surgical procedures in the management of short bowel syndrome.

Abstract
The development of cachexia may complicate cancer therapy, yet controversy exists concerning its nutritional management. For example, use of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) may not be appropriate because of gut atrophy, possible stimulation of tumor growth, and lack of total host protein repletion. In the present experiment, host and tumor responses were compared after identical parenteral or enteral nutritional supplementation (EN). Eighteen days after subcutaneous inoculation of adult male Fischer-344 rats with fresh methylcholanthrene-induced sarcoma (tumor-bearing [TB] rats), catheters were placed into either the external jugular vein or the stomach. Four days later, rats were started on an 11-day course of either TPN or EN with a Freamine-III-based formula (amino acids = 6%, dextrose = 21.5%, lipid = 1.5%). When the rats were killed, there was no difference in tumor weight between the various TB groups. Carcass weight was increased significantly in both the TB-TPN and TB-EN groups, and there was an elevation in gastrocnemius protein content in both groups compared with the TB-rat food group. Small intestine protein was preserved in the TB-EN group to the level observed in the control-rat food animals. Total lipids in the liver were increased in both TB-TPN and TB-EN groups; however, the magnitude of the increase was less in the TB-EN animals. Neither treatment resulted in complete protein repletion of tumor-bearing rats. EN may be more appropriate than TPN in that gut mass is preserved. The maintenance of gut mucosa may prove to be beneficial in the treatment of the depleted, immunocompromised, and metabolically stressed host.

Abstract
Advances in long-term venous access devices and in parenteral nutrition solutions have made it possible for patients with severe short bowel syndrome to survive and to live in our society. The spectrum of this disease is such that some patients may be able to lessen their dependence or even become free from parenteral therapy. This review will discuss the role of nutrition support in the patient with short bowel syndrome.

Abstract
Intestinal adaptation, in terms of increasing intestinal length and weight, usually occurs rapidly after small-bowel resection. However, this response depends on provision of enteral nutrients. If total parenteral nutrition without enteral feeding is prolonged, hypoplasia of the intestinal mucosa results. Adaptation is probably mediated through the presence of luminal nutrients, particularly glutamine, which is preferentially used by the intestine. However, systemic hormonal factors, possibly gastrin, cholecystokinin, and glucagon, also influence intestinal adaptation. Thus, in the management of short-bowel syndromes, enteral nutrition should be added to total parenteral nutrition as soon as possible.

Abstract
We compared the relative efficacy of medium- and long-chain triglycerides and dextrose on intestinal adaptation. Parenterally nourished rats received an isocaloric luminal infusion of one of these three substrates for 1 wk into either the jejunum or the ileum. Intestinal mass (mucosal weight and protein content) as well as the in vivo absorption of 5 mM glucose, valine, and aspartic acid were measured. In the jejunum, long-chain triglycerides were the most trophic, whereas in the ileum, long-chain triglycerides and dextrose were equally effective, but significantly more trophic than medium-chain triglycerides. In general, absorptive function was better maintained by dextrose and medium-chain triglycerides than long-chain triglycerides in the jejunum or by dextrose in the ileum. These data demonstrate that the jejunum and ileum respond differently to caloric substrates. Medium-chain triglycerides do not appear to have a clear superiority to long-chain triglycerides or dextrose in producing intestinal adaptation.

Abstract
Luminal nutrients are a major effector of intestinal adaptation. Amino acids are trophic to the intestine, but their role in regulating amino acid transport is not well documented. The presence of several distinct amino acid transport systems raises the question of whether adaptation is class-specific. Studies were carried out in parenterally nourished rats receiving a 7-day jejunal infusion of a 3% solution of either aminoisobutyric acid, aspartic acid, glutamine, histidine, lysine, or valine. While all amino acids were trophic to the intestine, their effects on the in vitro uptake of 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 mM aspartic acid, lysine, and valine (representative acid, basic, and neutral amino acids) were variable and nonspecific. Compared to controls receiving either total parenteral nutrition alone or total parenteral nutrition plus luminal saline, prior lysine and aspartic acid infusion significantly increased in vitro uptake of all three amino acids tested, whereas valine had little effect on transport. No effect on transport was seen with glutamine (actively metabolized by the intestine as is aspartic acid), aminoisobutyric acid (a nonmetabolizable amino acid congener), or histidine (the most trophic amino acid). In conclusion, while individual amino acids cause an adaptation of amino acid uptake, the effects are nonspecific and independent of their metabolic or trophic potential.
