Abstract
BACKGROUND We have recently reported a mouse model of PN-associated cholestasis (PNAC) in which combining intestinal inflammation and PN infusion results in cholestasis, hepatic macrophage activation, and transcriptional suppression of canalicular bile acid, bilirubin and sterol transporters Abcb11, Abcc2 and Abcg5/8. The aim of this study was to examine the role of TNFα in promoting PNAC in mice. METHODS First, recombinant TNFα was administered to mice as well as in hepatocyte cell culture. Second, Tnfr1/2KO or wild-type (WT) mice were exposed to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 4 days followed by soy-oil lipid emulsion-based PN infusion through a central venous catheter for 14 days (DSS-PN). Finally, WT/DSS-PN mice were also infused with infliximab at 10 mg/kg on days 3 and 10 of PN. PNAC was defined by increased serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bile acids, and bilirubin. RESULTS Intraperitoneal injection of TNFα into WT mice or TNFα treatment of Huh7 hepatocarcinoma cells and primary mouse hepatocytes suppressed messenger RNA (mRNA) transcription of bile (Abcb11, Abcc2]) and sterol transporters (Abcg5/8) and their regulators Nr1h3 and Nr1h4. DSS-PN mice with PNAC had increased hepatic TNFα mRNA expression and significant reduction of mRNA expression of Abcb11, Abcc2, Abcg5/8, Nr1h3, and Nr1h4. In contrast, PNAC development was prevented and mRNA expression normalized in both Tnfr1/2KO /DSS-PN mice and DSS-PN mice treated with infliximab. CONCLUSIONS TNFα is a key mediator in the pathogenesis of PNAC through suppression of hepatocyte Abcb11, Abcc2, and Abcg5/8. Pharmacologic targeting of TNFα as a therapeutic strategy for PNAC thus deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Lipid injectable emulsions (ILEs) are complex pharmaceutical formulations intended as a source of energy and fatty acids for parenteral nutrition (PN) therapy. Part 1 of this series addressed issues associated with and safety recommendations pertaining to adult ILE use. Part 2 addresses ILE safety in neonatal and pediatric patients. Considerations for ILE use in the neonatal and pediatric populations differ from those of adults. For example, these patients often require higher doses compared with adult counterparts to support growth, development, and daily metabolic needs. ILE is also frequently administered as a separate infusion as opposed to in a total nutrient admixture owing to compatibility and stability issues and limitations to intravenous access in the neonatal and pediatric populations. ILE is the most frequent PN ingredient associated with PN errors occurring in the administration, prescribing, and transcribing processes. Concerns exist with use of in-line filters and repackaging of commercial products for infusion. ILE use in neonatal and pediatric patients has been associated with both minor and major adverse effects, which most often occur with doses exceeding manufacturer recommendations. Gaps in ILE best practices for neonatal and pediatric patients predispose to errors in the PN use system. This paper describes safe-use considerations for ILE products available in the United States in neonatal and pediatric patients, including indications, prescribing, order review, preparation, administration, and monitoring. This paper has been approved by the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) Board of Directors.

Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains the most common severe complication of preterm birth, and nutrition plays a crucial role in lung growth and repair. A practical nutritional approach for infants at risk of BPD or with established BPD is provided based on a comprehensive literature review. Ideally, infants with BPD should receive a fluid intake of not more than 135-150 mL/kg/day and an energy intake of 120-150 kcal/kg/day. Providing high energy in low volume remains a challenge and is the main cause of growth restriction in these infants. They need a nutritional strategy that encompasses early aggressive parenteral nutrition and the initiation of concentrated feedings of energy and nutrients. The order of priority is fortified mother's own milk, followed by fortified donor milk and preterm enriched formulas. Functional nutrient supplements with a potential protective role against BPD are revisited, despite the limited evidence of their efficacy. Specialized nutritional strategies may be necessary to overcome difficulties common in BPD infants, such as gastroesophageal reflux and poorly coordinated feeding. Planning nutrition support after discharge requires a multidisciplinary approach to deal with multiple potential problems. Regular monitoring based on anthropometry and biochemical markers is needed to guide the nutritional intervention.

Prenatal indole-3-carbinol administration activates aryl hydrocarbon receptor-responsive genes and attenuates lung injury in a bronchopulmonary dysplasia model. Exp Biol Med (Maywood) 2021; 246:695-706.

Abstract
Hyperoxia-hypoxia exposure is a proposed cause of alveolar developmental arrest in bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants, where mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress vulnerability are increased. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is one of the main activators of the antioxidant enzyme system that protects tissues and systems from damage. The present study aimed to determine if the activation of the AhR signaling pathway by prenatal administration of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) protects rat pups from hyperoxia-hypoxia-induced lung injury. To assess the activation of protein-encoding genes related to the AhR signaling pathway (Cyp1a1, Cyp1b1, Ugt1a6, Nqo1, and Gsta1), pup lungs were excised at 0, 24, and 72 h after birth, and mRNA expression levels were quantified by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays (RT-qPCR). An adapted Ratner's method was used in rats to evaluate radial alveolar counts (RACs) and the degree of fibrosis. The results reveal that the relative expression of AhR-related genes in rat pups of prenatally I3C-treated dams was significantly different from that of untreated dams. The RAC was significantly lower in the hyperoxia-hypoxia group (4.0 ± 1.0) than that in the unexposed control group (8.0 ± 2.0; P < 0.01). When rat pups of prenatally I3C-treated dams were exposed to hyperoxia-hypoxia, an RAC recovery was observed, and the fibrosis index was similar to that of the unexposed control group. A cytokine antibody array revealed an increase in the NF-κB signaling cascade in I3C-treated pups, suggesting that the pathway could regulate the inflammatory process under the stimulus of this compound. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that I3C prenatal treatment activates AhR-responsive genes in pup's lungs and hence attenuates lung damage caused by hyperoxia-hypoxia exposure in newborns.

New-generation intravenous fat emulsions and bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants: a systematic review and meta-analysis. J Perinatol 2020; 40:1585-1596. [PMID: 32636446 DOI: 10.1038/s41372-020-0716-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2019] [Revised: 05/22/2020] [Accepted: 06/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fat emulsion is an important component of parenteral nutrition in premature infants. However, intravenous fat emulsions (IVFE) was reported to be associated with some serious complications, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Compared to conventional soybean oil-based IVFE, new-generation IVFE may protect against BPD but the results are conflicting. METHODS Relevant literatures search was conducted and the summary effect estimates of odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated with fixed-effects models. RESULTS Of 22 studies involving 3781 infants were selected in this study and BPD was reported as part of the included studies. The pooled estimate for 13 studies, comparing administration of new-generation IVFE with conventional IVFE, indicated that new-generation IVFE was not associated with a reduced risk of BPD in preterm infants, compared with conventional IVFE (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.80-1.14); the pooled estimate for 18 studies, comparing administration of fish oil-containing IVFE with non-fish oil IVFE, indicated that fish oil-containing IVFE has no protective effect against the occurrence of BPD in preterm infants (OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.71-1.08). CONCLUSIONS There is no evidence to support that the new-generation IVFEs could prevent the incidence of BPD or fish oil-containing IVFEs could show a beneficial effect to BPD in premature infants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare neurodevelopmental outcomes of extremely preterm children who received soy-medium chain triglycerides-olive-fish oil-containing lipid emulsion (SMOF-LE) vs soy-based LE. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a pre-post comparative cohort study of children born < 29 weeks' gestation who received > 7 days of LE. Outcomes were mortality/significant neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI), mortality/any NDI, significant NDI, any NDI, and individual components of NDI. RESULTS Among children with follow-up data (Intralipid: n = 340/442, 77%; SMOF-LE: n = 214/286, 75%), baseline characteristics were comparable except for postnatal steroids. There was no significant difference in death/significant NDI between groups. Adjusted odds of death/any NDI [0.68 (95% CI 0.48, 0.97)], any NDI [0.64 (95% CI 0.44, 0.93)] and Bayley-III language score < 85 and <70 were significantly lower in the SMOF-LE group. CONCLUSIONS In extremely preterm children, a change from soy-based LE to SMOF-LE was not associated with deleterious effect on neurodevelopmental outcomes and may have been associated with some improvement.

Abstract
Aims To model the parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) in rat normal hepatocytes BRL and investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress- (ERS-) related IRE1α signal in the process of PNALD. Methods The BRL cells were treated with different concentrations of soybean oil emulsion (SO) to induce hepatocyte fatty degeneration. The PNALD cell disease model was further confirmed by analysis of Oil Red O staining and biochemical parameters. Next, the IRE1α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD. Results The results of Oil Red O staining indicated that the PNALD was successfully established in BRL cells and the CCK-8 data indicated which 0.6% that SO was further applied to the experiment owing to its better induction of PNALD and less toxicity to the cells. Besides, the value of biochemical parameters (TBIL, DBIL, ALT, and AST) was also elevated in the SO group compared with the NG group. After knockdown of IRE1α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD. Conclusion IRE1α was induced in PNALD cell model and suppression of IRE1α resulted in reduced steatosis in this cell disease model. Taken together, our data suggested that the IRE1α pathway may be involved in the development of PNALD.α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD. α signal in the process of PNALD.

Abstract
Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is characterized by either liver steatosis or cholestasis and may develop in patients on long-term home parenteral nutrition for chronic intestinal failure. The pathogenesis of IFALD is multifactorial and includes gastrointestinal disease-related, parenteral nutrition-related, and systemic-related factors. Alteration of bile acid enterohepatic circulation, gut microbiome, and intestinal permeability, seem to be the main mechanisms. Patients forced to a total oral fasting regimen are at greater risk. Parenteral nutrition overfeeding and/or of soybean-based lipid emulsion may be contributing factors. Prevention and treatment are based on avoiding and promptly treating all the risk factors.

A More Comprehensive Approach to the Neuroprotective Potential of Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Preterm Infants Is Needed-Should We Consider Maternal Diet and the n-6:n-3 Fatty Acid Ratio? Front Pediatr 2019; 7:533. [PMID: 31998669 PMCID: PMC6965147 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2019.00533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2019] [Accepted: 12/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
There is growing evidence that long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) are of importance for normal brain development. Adequate supply of LCPUFAs may be particularly important for preterm infants, because the third trimester is an important period of brain growth and accumulation of arachidonic acid (n-6 LCPUFA) and docosahexaenoic acid (n-3 LCPUFA). Fatty acids from the n-6 and n-3 series, particularly, have important functions in the brain as well as in the immune system, and their absolute and relative intakes may alter both the risk of impaired neurodevelopment and response to injury. This narrative review focuses on the potential importance of the n-6:n-3 fatty acid ratio in preterm brain development. Randomized trials of post-natal LCPUFA supplementation in preterm infants are presented. Pre-clinical evidence, results from observational studies in preterm infants as well as studies in term infants and evidence related to maternal diet during pregnancy, focusing on the n-6:n-3 fatty acid ratio, are also summarized. Two randomized trials in preterm infants have compared different ratios of arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid intakes. Most of the other studies in preterm infants have compared formula supplemented with arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid to un-supplemented formula. No trial has had a comprehensive approach to differences in total intake of both n-6 and n-3 fatty acids during a longer period of neurodevelopment. The results from preclinical and clinical studies indicate that intake of LCPUFAs during pregnancy and post-natal development is of importance for neurodevelopment and neuroprotection in preterm infants, but the interplay between fatty acids and their metabolites is complex. The best clinical approach to LCPUFA supplementation and n-6 to n-3 fatty acid ratio is still far from evident, and requires in-depth future studies that investigate specific fatty acid supplementation in the context of other fatty acids in the diet.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Intravenous lipid emulsions (IVLEs) are an essential component of parenteral nutrition. With the recent incorporation of new lipid emulsions into the Canadian and American market, the clinician responsible for prescribing these lipids should be educated regarding the different fatty acid (FA) profiles of these lipids, as well as their metabolic and functional effects. RECENT FINDINGS New IVLEs contain a mix of soybean oil and olive oil, or a mix of soybean oil, coconut oil, olive oil and fish oil. These new lipid emulsions provide less essential fatty acids (FAs) (linoleic and alpha linolenic acids) than in pure soybean oil, yet incorporation of fish oil into an IVLE may decrease the amount of essential FAs required. Fish oil is a treatment for hypertriglyceridemia, and therefore, IVLEs that include fish oil may decrease serum triglycerides. Historical perspective is that fish oil can be associated with increased bleeding time. Evidence suggests that there is no association between fish oil and increased bleeding in patients, even those who are using anticoagulants. New IVLEs provide less vitamin K than soybean oil alone. Patients, or the parenteral nutrition solutions that include these new IVLEs should be supplemented with vitamin K. SUMMARY Canadian and American Guidelines for IVLEs were based on soybean oil. Current practice should be tailored to which IVLE is being prescribed.
