Abstract
Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a relatively common complication in individuals receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). IFALD can be manifested as different types of liver injury, including steatosis, cholestasis, and fibrosis, and could result in liver failure in some cases. The onset and progression of IFALD are highly dependent on various patient and PN-related risk factors. Despite still being under investigation, several mechanisms have been proposed. Liver injury can originate due to caloric overload, nutrient deficiency, and toxicity, as well as phytosterol content, and omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids ratio contained in lipid emulsions. Additional mechanisms include immature or defective bile acid metabolism, acute heart failure, infections, and sepsis exerting negative effects via Toll-like receptor 4 and nuclear factor κB inflammatory signaling. Furthermore, lack of enteral feeding, gut dysbiosis, and altered enterohepatic circulation that affect the farnesoid x receptor-fibroblast growth factor 19 axis can also contribute to IFALD. Various best practices can be adopted to minimize the risk of developing IFALD, such as prevention and management of central line infections and sepsis, preservation of intestine's length, a switch to oral and enteral feeding, cyclic PN, avoidance of overfeeding and soybean oil-based lipid formulations, and avoiding hepatotoxic substances. The present review thus provides a comprehensive overview of all relevant aspects inherent to IFALD. Further research focused on clinical observations, translational models, and advanced toxicological knowledge frameworks is needed to gain more insight into the molecular pathogenesis of hepatotoxicity, reduce IFALD incidence, and encourage the safe use of PN.

[PMID: 38429962 PMCID: PMC10914324 DOI: 10.1002/ncp.11119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Fat malabsorption is central to the pathophysiology of short bowel syndrome (SBS). It occurs in patients with insufficient intestinal surface area and/or function to maintain metabolic and growth demands. Rapid intestinal transit and impaired bile acid recycling further contribute to fat malabsorption. A significant portion of patients require parenteral nutrition (PN) for their survival but may develop sepsis and liver dysfunction as a result. Despite advancements in the treatment of SBS, fat malabsorption remains a chronic issue for this vulnerable patient population. Peer-reviewed literature was assessed on the topic of fat malabsorption in SBS. Current management of patients with SBS involves dietary considerations, PN management, antidiarrheals, glucagon-like peptide 2 agonists, and multidisciplinary teams. Clinical trials have focused on improving intestinal fat absorption by facilitating fat digestion with pancreatic enzymes. Targeting fat malabsorption in SBS is a potential pathway to improving lifestyle and reducing morbidity and mortality in this rare disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Data on the relationship between body composition (BC) and physical activity (PA) in children with intestinal failure (IF) are lacking. The objectives were to collect data on PA and BC in children with IF, both parenterally and enterally fed, and to assess the relationship between PA and BC. METHODS Cross-sectional study in children 5-18 years with IF including those receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) and those fully enterally fed. PA levels were measured using accelerometry. BC was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Data were compared to age- and sex-matched population norms using t tests. Regression analysis assessed the relationship between BC and PA. RESULTS Fifty-eight children with IF (38 males), mean (SD) age of 10.0 (3.5) years, 20 dependent on PN were included. Patients with IF had significantly fewer steps per day ( P ≤ 0.001) compared with literature controls, with a mean (SD) of 7,972 (3,008) and 11,749 (1,106), respectively. There were no significant differences between patients receiving PN and those enterally fed, but both groups were significantly less active than literature controls ( P < 0.001). Patients with IF had higher fat mass and lower fat-free mass compared to literature controls ( P = 0.008). PA had a significant effect on BC ( r2 = 0.32, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Children with IF, those receiving PN and those fully enterally fed, are at risk of decreased PA and altered BC. PA should be part of ongoing rehabilitation and management to optimize outcomes.

Effects of subtotal pancreatectomy and long-term glucose and lipid overload on insulin secretion and glucose homeostasis in minipigs. Endocrinol Diabetes Metab 2023:e425.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nowadays, there are no strong diabetic pig models, yet they are required for various types of diabetes research. Using cutting-edge techniques, we attempted to develop a type 2 diabetic minipig model in this study by combining a partial pancreatectomy (Px) with an energetic overload administered either orally or parenterally. METHODS Different groups of minipigs, including Göttingen-like (GL, n = 17) and Ossabaw (O, n = 4), were developed. Prior to and following each intervention, metabolic assessments were conducted. First, the metabolic responses of the Göttingen-like (n = 3) and Ossabaw (n = 4) strains to a 2-month High-Fat, High-Sucrose diet (HFHSD) were compared. Then, other groups of GL minipigs were established: with a single Px (n = 10), a Px combined with a 2-month HFHSD (n = 6), and long-term intraportal glucose and lipid infusions that were either preceded by a Px (n = 4) or not (n = 4). RESULTS After the 2-month HFHSD, there was no discernible change between the GL and O minipigs. The pancreatectomized group in GL minipigs showed a significantly lower Acute Insulin Response (AIR) (18.3 ± 10.0 IU/mL after Px vs. 34.9 ± 13.7 IU/mL before, p < .0005). In both long-term intraportal infusion groups, an increase in the Insulinogenic (IGI) and Hepatic Insulin Resistance Indexes (HIRI) was found with a decrease in the AIR, especially in the pancreatectomized group (IGI: 4.2 ± 1.9 after vs. 1.5 ± 0.8 before, p < .05; HIRI (×10-5 ): 12.6 ± 7.9 after vs. 3.8 ± 4.3 before, p < .05; AIR: 24.4 ± 13.7 µIU/mL after vs. 43.9 ± 14.5 µIU/mL before, p < .005). Regardless of the group, there was no fasting hyperglycemia. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we used pancreatectomy followed by long-term intraportal glucose and lipid infusions to develop an original minipig model with metabolic syndrome and early signs of glucose intolerance. We reaffirm the pig's usefulness as a preclinical model for the metabolic syndrome but without the fasting hyperglycemia that characterizes diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is life-saving therapy for the pediatric patients with intestinal failure (IF) who cannot tolerate enteral nutrition (EN). However, TPN-induced metabolic alterations are also a critical issue for the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis, and thus the global metabolomic signatures need to be addressed. In this study, ileal mucosal biopsies were collected from 12 neonatal Bama piglets receiving either EN or TPN for 14 days, and changes in the intestinal metabolism were examined by multi-omics (HM350 Metabolomics + Tandem Mass Tag (TMT)-based proteomics). As a result, a total of 240 compounds were identified by metabolomics, including 56 down-regulated and 9 up-regulated metabolites. Notably, tissue levels of fatty acyl-carnitines (decreased by 35-85%) and succinate (decreased by 89%) dramatically decreased in the TPN group, suggestive of disrupted processes of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and the citrate cycle, respectively. Interestingly, however, no differences were found in the production of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) between groups, suggesting that these dysregulated metabolites may have mainly led to the loss of bioactive compounds rather than energy deficit. Additionally, 4813 proteins were identified by proteomics in total, including 179 down-regulated and 329 up-regulated proteins. The analysis of protein-protein interactions (PPI) indicated that most of the differentially expressed proteins were clustered into "lipid metabolism" and "innate immune responses". In summary, this work provided new findings in TPN-induced intestinal metabolic alterations, which would be useful to the improvement of nutritional management for IF patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Growth failure (GF) is a multifactorial problem in preterm infants. The intestinal microbiome and inflammation may contribute to GF. OBJECTIVES This study's objective was to compare the gut microbiome and plasma cytokines in preterm infants with and without GF. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of infants with birth weights of <1750 g. Infants with a weight or length z-score change from birth to discharge or death that was less than or equal to -0.8 (GF group) were compared with infants without GF [control (CON) group]. The primary outcome was the gut microbiome (at weeks 1-4 of age), assessed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing using Deseq2. Secondary outcomes included inferred metagenomic function and plasma cytokines. Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States determined metagenomic function, which was compared using ANOVA. Cytokines were measured by 2-multiplexed immunometric assays and compared using Wilcoxon tests and linear mixed models. RESULTS GF (n = 14) and CON group (n = 13) had similar median (IQR) birth weight (1380 [780-1578] g vs. 1275 [1013-1580] g) and gestational age (29 [25-31] weeks vs. 30 [29-32] weeks). Compared with the CON group, the GF group had a greater abundance of Escherichia/Shigella in weeks 2 and 3, Staphylococcus in week 4, and Veillonella in weeks 3 and 4 (P-adjusted < 0.001 for all). Plasma cytokine concentrations did not differ significantly between the cohorts. When all time points are combined, fewer microbes were involved in TCA cycle activity in the GF group compared with the CON group (P = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS In this study, when compared with CON infants, GF infants had a distinct microbial signature with increased Escherichia/Shigella and Firmicutes and fewer microbes associated with energy production at later weeks of hospitalization. These findings may suggest a mechanism for aberrant growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES With increasing number of children with intestinal failure (IF) on long-term parenteral nutrition (PN), this study assesses the impact of IF on muscle strength, speed, and agility and body composition (BC), identifying clinical factors that may predict impairment. METHODS Cross-sectional study in children 5-18 years with IF on PN. Assessments included Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency-2 strength and agility subtest (BOT-2), and grip strength. BC data from dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements and clinical variables were collected by chart abstraction. Data were compared to age and sex matched controls and population norms. RESULTS Twenty-one children with IF (14 males), median age 8.33 (IQR: 6.96-11.04) years and 33 controls (20 males), 8.25 (6.67-10.79) years were included. Strength and agility ( P < 0.001) and grip strength ( P = 0.001) differed between groups. Nine of 21 (43%) of children with IF scored >1 standard deviation (SD) below mean on BOT-2 and 13 of 21 (62%) had grip strength >1 SD below mean. DXA measurements showed 10 of 18 (56%) of children had lower fat-free mass (FFM)% and higher fat mass (FM)% than reference norms. Decreased FFM% was associated with lower BOT-2 scores ( r = 0.479; P = 0.044) and grip strength scores >1 SD below mean ( P = 0.047). Additional clinical factors significantly impacting strength and agility included prematurity, height, hospitalizations, sepsis, and small bowel length. CONCLUSIONS Children with IF are at risk of decreased muscle strength and agility, along with altered BC. Ongoing medical, nutritional, and rehabilitation intervention is vital to optimize outcomes.

Carbamazepine mitigates parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease in a novel ambulatory piglet model. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2022; 46:1384-1392.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) remains a critical therapeutic option in patients who cannot tolerate enteral feeding. However, although lifesaving, PN is associated with significant side effects, including liver injury, the etiology of which is multifactorial. Carbamazepine (CBZ), an antiepileptic medication, is known to modulate hepatic fibrosis and hepatocellular injury in a variety of liver diseases. We hypothesized that CBZ could prevent PN-associated liver disease (PNALD), which we tested by using our novel ambulatory PN piglet model. METHODS Piglets were fitted with jugular catheters and infusion pumps for PN and randomized to enteral nutrition (n = 7), PN (n = 6), or PN with parenteral CBZ (n = 6) for 2 weeks. Serum and liver tissue were analyzed via light microscopy, quantification of serum liver injury markers, Ki67 and cytokeratin-7 indexing, and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS PN-fed piglets in our model developed manifestations of PNALD-particularly, increased serum bilirubin, gamma-glutamyltransferase, liver cholestasis, and Ki67 expression compared with that of EN-fed animals (P < 0.03). CBZ therapy in PN-fed animals led to a significant reduction in these markers of injury (P < 0.05). Investigation into the mechanism of these therapeutic effects revealed increased expression of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP-1), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-α), and fatty acid binding protein (FABP) in PN-fed animals receiving CBZ (P < 0.03). Further investigation revealed increased LC3 expression and decreased lysosomal-associated membrane protein (LAMP1) expression with CBZ (P < 0.03). CONCLUSION CBZ administration mitigates PNALD severity, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy targeting PN-associated side effects, and may present a paradigm change to current treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Almost 9%of deceased donor livers are discarded as marginal donor livers (MDL) due to concern of severe ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). Emerging data supports ferroptosis (iron regulated hepatocellular death) as an IRI driver, however lack of robust preclinical model limits therapeutic testing. In this manuscript we describe the development of a novel rigorous internal control system utilizing normothermic perfusion of split livers to test ferroptosis regulators modulating IRI. METHODS Upon institutional approval, split human MDLs were placed on our normothermic perfusion machine, Perfusion Regulated Organ Therapeutics with Enhanced Controlled Testing (PROTECT), pumping arterial and portal blood. Experiment 1 compared right (UR) and left (UL) lobes to validate PROTECT. Experiment 2 assessed ferroptosis regulator Deferoxamine in Deferoxamine Agent Treated (DMAT) vs. No Agent Internal Control (NAIC) lobes. Liver serology, histology, and ferroptosis genes were assessed. RESULTS Successful MDL perfusion validated PROTECT with no ALT or AST difference between UR and UL (∆ALT UR: 235, ∆ALT UL: 212; ∆AST UR: 576, ∆AST UL: 389). Liver injury markers increased in NAIC vs. DMAT (∆ALT NAIC: 586, ∆ALT DMAT: -405; ∆AST NAIC: 617, ∆AST DMAT: -380). UR and UL had similar expression of ferroptosis regulators RPL8,HO-1 and HIFα. Significantly decreased intrahepatic iron (p = .038), HO-1 and HIFα in DMAT (HO-1 NAIC: 6.93, HO-1 DMAT: 2.74; HIFαNAIC: 8.67, HIFαDMAT: 2.60)and no hepatocellular necrosis or immunohistochemical staining (Ki67/Cytokeratin-7) differences were noted. CONCLUSION PROTECT demonstrates the therapeutic utility of a novel normothermic perfusion split liver system for drug discovery and rapid translatability of therapeutics, driving a paradigm change in organ recovery and transplant medicine. Our study using human livers, provides preliminary proof of concept for the novel role of ferroptosis regulators in driving IRI.

Holgersen K, Rasmussen MB, Carey G, Burrin DG, Thymann T, Sangild PT. Clinical outcome and gut development after insulin-like growth factor-1 supplementation to preterm pigs. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:868911. [PMID: 35989990 PMCID: PMC9389362 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.868911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevation of circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) within normal physiological levels may alleviate several morbidities in preterm infants but safety and efficacy remain unclear. We hypothesized that IGF-1 supplementation during the first 1-2 weeks after preterm birth improves clinical outcomes and gut development, using preterm pigs as a model for infants. METHODS Preterm pigs were given vehicle or recombinant human IGF-1/binding protein-3 (rhIGF-1, 2.25 mg/kg/d) by subcutaneous injections for 8 days (Experiment 1, n = 34), or by systemic infusion for 4 days (Experiment 2, n = 19), before collection of blood and organs for analyses. RESULTS In both experiments, rhIGF-1 treatment increased plasma IGF-1 levels 3-4 fold, reaching the values reported for term suckling piglets. In Experiment 1, rhIGF-1 treatment increased spleen and intestinal weights without affecting clinical outcomes like growth, blood biochemistry (except increased sodium and gamma-glutamyltransferase levels), hematology (e.g., red and white blood cell populations), glucose homeostasis (e.g., basal and glucose-stimulated insulin and glucose levels) or systemic immunity variables (e.g., T cell subsets, neutrophil phagocytosis, LPS stimulation, bacterial translocation to bone marrow). The rhIGF-1 treatment increased gut protein synthesis (+11%, p < 0.05) and reduced the combined incidence of all-cause mortality and severe necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC, p < 0.05), but had limited effects on intestinal morphology, cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, brush-border enzyme activities, permeability and levels of cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8). In Experiment 2, rhIGF-1 treated pigs had reduced blood creatine kinase, creatinine, potassium and aspartate aminotransferase levels, with no effects on organ weights (except increased spleen weight), blood chemistry values, clinical variables or NEC. CONCLUSION Physiological elevation of systemic IGF-1 levels for 8 days after preterm birth increased intestinal weight and protein synthesis, spleen weight and potential overall viability of pigs, without any apparent negative effects on recorded clinical parameters. The results add further preclinical support for safety and efficacy of supplemental IGF-1 to hospitalized very preterm infants.

Depletion and enrichment of phytosterols in soybean oil lipid emulsions directly associate with serum markers of cholestasis in preterm parenteral nutrition-fed pigs. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2022; 46:160-171. [PMID: 33581699 PMCID: PMC8361868 DOI: 10.1002/jpen.2088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2020] [Revised: 01/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical reports show a positive correlation between phytosterol concentrations and severity of cholestatic liver disease markers in infants during long-term administration of parenteral lipid emulsions. Establishing a causal link between phytosterols and cholestasis has been complicated by confounding factors of lipid emulsion load, fatty acid composition, and vitamin E in many of these studies. The goal of this study is to determine whether altering the phytosterol concentration within a common soybean oil-based emulsion will alter the onset and severity of cholestasis in parenterally fed preterm piglets. METHODS Preterm piglets were administered, for 21 days, either enteral nutrition (ENT) or parenteral nutrition (PN) prepared from a soybean oil-based emulsion containing either 24.0% (depleted [DEP]), 100% (Intralipid; normal phytosterol [NP] concentration), or 144% (enriched [ENR]) total phytosterol concentration. RESULTS At the end of the study, plasma and liver phytosterol concentrations were highest in the ENR group, followed by NP and then DEP and ENT. Serum direct bilirubin, serum bile acids, and γ-glutamyltransferase were higher in the ENR and NP groups compared with either DEP or ENT groups. All PN lipid groups showed evidence of mild hepatic steatosis but no change in hepatic expression of proinflammatory cytokines or Farnesoid X receptor target genes. CONCLUSION The increase in serum direct bilirubin was lower in the DEP group vs the lipid emulsions with normal or ENR phytosterols. Our results provide additional evidence that phytosterols are linked to an increase in serum markers of cholestasis in preterm PN-fed pigs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Published reports on abnormal body composition in pediatric patients with intestinal failure have been in patients with poor growth. The goal of the current study is to report the body composition of normally growing patients with intestinal failure. METHODS Children 8-18 years old with a dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) between January 1, 2013, and July 15, 2018, were included in the study. Data were retrospectively collected from the medical charts and included demographics, residual bowel anatomy, nutrition support, height, and weight. DXA data, including total body less head bone mineral density (BMD), fat mass (FM), and fat-free mass (FFM), were collected and compared with published literature controls matched for age and sex. RESULTS Thirty-four children met inclusion criteria. Mean age at the time of DXA was 9.6 ± 1.8 years. Weight- and height-for-age z-scores were -0.4 ± 0.9 and -0.5 ± 1.0, respectively. Mean BMD z-score was -1.0 ± 1.3. Twenty-six percent of patients (n = 9) had reduced BMD. Patients with intestinal failure had higher FM (P = .02) and lower FFM (P = .02) compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS These data show that, despite reference range z-scores for height and weight, children with intestinal failure are at risk for abnormal body composition. Body composition should be routinely measured in children with intestinal failure to direct nutrition interventions.

Abstract
Metabolic side effects of atypical antipsychotics are an important cause of deterioration of cognitive function and failure of drug adherence. The antifatty effect trypsin/chymotrypsin (T/C) and their mechanisms of action remain unclear. To investigate possible therapeutic effect of T/C in rat model of chronic olanzapine (OLZ) - induced hepatic steatosis. Twenty rats were divided into two groups: control (C), given distilled water, and O, given 1 mg/kg of OLZ orally daily for 7 weeks. Then, both groups were given T/C 3 enzyme activity unit (EAU)/kg orally as an add-on treatment daily for the next 5 weeks and were named T/C or T/C+O groups. Rat performance in radial arm water maze was tested twice before and after T/C treatment. We measured liver enzymes, alpha-1 antitrypsin, albumin, total protein, direct and total bilirubin, inflammatory cytokines, and lipoprotein serum levels. Liver samples were collected for histopathology and Ki67 expression. The T/C add-on caused significant reduction in OLZ-induced elevation of alanine transaminase (ALT; P < 0.01), aspartate transaminase (AST; P < 0.001), alkaline phosphatase (ALP; P < 0.05), total cholesterol (Tc; P < 0.01), low-density lipoproteins (LDL-c; P < 0.05), steatosis score (P < 0.001), hepatocyte necrosis (P < 0.01), and significantly increased Ki67 expression (P < 0.01). The T/C add-on to OLZ provided protection against hepatic steatosis, elevated enzymes, and disturbed lipid profile and increased Ki67 without disturbing memory function.

Abstract
The feeding of colostrum and mother's transitional milk improves immune protection and neurodevelopmental outcomes. It also helps with gut maturation and decreases the risks of infection. The supply of nutrients from human milk (HM) is not adequate for preterm infants, even though preterm mother's milk contains higher concentrations of protein, sodium, zinc, and calcium than mature HM. The human milk fortifiers, particularly those with protein, calcium, and phosphate, should be used to supplement HM to meet the necessities of preterm infants. The management of fluid and electrolytes is a challenging aspect of neonatal care of preterm infants. Trace minerals such as iron, zinc, copper, iodine, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, chromium, and fluoride are considered essential for preterm infants. Vitamins such as A, D, E, and K play an important role in the prevention of morbidities, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, retinopathy of prematurity, and intraventricular hemorrhage. Therefore, supplementation of HM with required nutrients is recommended for all preterm infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thisstudy aimed to investigate the impact of fish oil-based lipid emulsion (FO) on enterohepatic injuries and intestinal microbiota in piglets of parenteral nutrition (PN). METHODS Newborn piglets were divided into three groups, including enteral diet (the controls), PN with 100% FO and PN with medium-chain triglyceride/long-chain triglyceride-based lipid emulsion (MCT/LCT) for 14 days. Serum biochemical indicators, hepatic and intestinal histology, and expression of genes associated with inflammation, oxidative stress, and lipid metabolism were measured. The bile acid (BA) profiles in serum and the taxonomic composition of the gut microbiome in different intestinal segments were analyzed. RESULTS Compared with MCT/LCT-piglets, FO reduced inflammation, promoted fatty acid oxidation, and decreased oxidative stress in the liver. In the intestine, FO decreased intestinal inflammation and intestinal permeability, leading to reduced lipopolysaccharide entry into the blood circulation relative to MCT/LCT-piglets. PN groups have dominant contents of Proteobacteria and Bacteroides, whereas the control group have Firmicutes at the phylum level. FO altered the taxonomic compositions of the gut microbiome in different segments, increased the relative abundance of Bacteroidaceae in ileum, and Rikenellaceae and Ruminococcaceae in the colon. FO treatment shifted BA composition ratio in serum and had a lower ratio of secondary BAs to primary BAs. CONCLUSION FO alleviates PNLAD and intestinal injury by regulating the homeostasis of BAs' enterohepatic circulation and altering microbiota composition in different intestinal segments.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is a life-saving intervention for infants that are unable to feed by mouth. Infants that remain on TPN for extended periods of time are at risk for the development of liver injury in the form of parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis (PNAC). Current research suggests the lipid component of TPN is a factor in the development of PNAC. Most notably, the fatty acid composition, vitamin E concentration, and presence of phytosterols are believed key mediators of lipid emulsion driven PNAC development. New emulsions comprised of fish oil and medium chain triglycerides show promise for reducing the incidence of PNAC in infants. In this review we will cover the current clinical studies on the benefit of fish oil and medium chain triglyceride containing lipid emulsions on the development of PNAC, the current constituents of lipid emulsions that may modulate the prevalence of PNAC, and potential new supplements to TPN to further reduce the incidence of PNAC.

Abstract
Multicomponent lipid emulsions are available for critical care of preterm infants. We sought to determine the impact of different lipid emulsions on early priming of the host and its response to an acute stimulus. Pigs delivered 7d preterm (n = 59) were randomized to receive different lipid emulsions for 11 days: 100% soybean oil (SO), mixed oil emulsion (SO, medium chain olive oil and fish oil) including 15% fish oil (MO15), or 100% fish oil (FO100). On day 11, pigs received an 8-h continuous intravenous infusion of either lipopolysaccharide (LPS—lyophilized Escherichia coli) or saline. Plasma was collected for fatty acid, oxylipin, metabolomic, and cytokine analyses. At day 11, plasma omega-3 fatty acid levels in the FO100 groups showed the highest increase in eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA (0.1 ± 0.0 to 9.7 ± 1.9, p < 0.001), docosahexaenoic acid, DHA (day 0 = 2.5 ± 0.7 to 13.6 ± 2.9, p < 0.001), EPA and DHA-derived oxylipins, and sphingomyelin metabolites. In the SO group, levels of cytokine IL1β increased at the first hour of LPS infusion (296.6 ± 308 pg/mL) but was undetectable in MO15, FO100, or in the animals receiving saline instead of LPS. Pigs in the SO group showed a significant increase in arachidonic acid (AA)-derived prostaglandins and thromboxanes in the first hour (p < 0.05). No significant changes in oxylipins were observed with either fish-oil containing group during LPS infusion. Host priming with soybean oil in the early postnatal period preserves a higher AA:DHA ratio and the ability to acutely respond to an external stimulus. In contrast, fish-oil containing lipid emulsions increase DHA, exacerbate a deficit in AA, and limit the initial LPS-induced inflammatory responses in preterm pigs.

Abstract
Pigs are increasingly important animals for modeling human pediatric nutrition and gastroenterology and complementing mechanistic studies in rodents. The comparative advantages in size and physiology of the neonatal pig have led to new translational and clinically relevant models of important diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and liver in premature infants. Studies in pigs have established the essential roles of prematurity, microbial colonization, and enteral nutrition in the pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis. Studies in neonatal pigs have demonstrated the intestinal trophic effects of akey gut hormone, glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2), and its role in the intestinal adaptation process and efficacy in the treatment of short bowel syndrome. Further, pigs have been instrumental in elucidating the physiology of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease and the means by which phytosterols, fibroblast growth factor 19, and a new generation of lipid emulsions may modify disease. The premature pig will continue to be a valuable model in the development of optimal infant diets (donor human milk, colostrum), specific milk bioactives (arginine, growth factors), gut microbiota modifiers (pre-, pro-, and antibiotics), pharmaceutical drugs (GLP-2 analogs, FXR agonists), and novel diagnostic tools (near-infrared spectroscopy) to prevent and treat these pediatric diseases.

Abstract
Background Parenteral nutrition (PN)-associated liver disease (PNALD) is a common and life-threatening complication in patients receiving PN. However, its definitive etiology is not yet clear. Therefore, performed proteomic analyses of human liver tissue to explore the same. Methods Liver tissue was derived and compared across selected patients with (n = 3) /without (n = 4) PNALD via isobaric Tag for Relative and Absolute Quantitation (iTRAQ)-based quantitative proteomics. Bioinformatics analysis was performed using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases to explore the mechanisms of PNALD based on differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). The essential proteins that were differentially expressed between the two groups were explored and verified by western blotting. Results A total of 112 proteins were found to be differentially expressed, of which 73 were downregulated, and 39 were upregulated in the PNALD group. Bioinformatics analysis showed DEPs to be associated with mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (mainly involved in mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I assembly), hepatic glycolipid metabolism (involved primarily in glycogen formation and gluconeogenesis), and oxidative stress (mainly involved in antioxidant change). Conclusion Overall, our results indicated that mitochondrial energy metabolism impairment, hepatic glycolipid metabolism disorder, and excessive oxidative stress injury might explain the comprehensive mechanism underlying PNALD. Moreover, we have provided multiple potential targets for further exploring the PNALD mechanism.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is a life-saving therapy administered to millions of patients. However, it is associated with significant adverse effects, namely liver injury, risk of infections, and metabolic derangements. In this review, the underlying causes of TPN-associated adverse effects, specifically gut atrophy, dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiome, leakage of the epithelial barrier with bacterial invasion, and inflammation are first described. The role of the bile acid receptors farnesoid X receptor and Takeda G protein-coupled receptor, of pleiotropic hormones, and growth factors is highlighted, and the mechanisms of insulin resistance, namely the lack of insulinotropic and insulinomimetic signaling of gut-originating incretins as well as the potentially toxicity of phytosterols and pro-inflammatory fatty acids mainly released from soybean oil-based lipid emulsions, are discussed. Finally, novel approaches in the design of next generation lipid delivery systems are proposed. Propositions include modifying the physicochemical properties of lipid emulsions, the use of lipid emulsions generated from sustainable oils with favorable ratios of anti-inflammatory n-3 to pro-inflammatory n-6 fatty acids, beneficial adjuncts to TPN, and concomitant pharmacotherapies to mitigate TPN-associated adverse effects.

Abstract
Following preterm birth, the immature gut function and immunology must rapidly adapt to cope with bacterial colonization and enteral milk feeding. We hypothesized that intestinal epigenetic changes are involved in the gut response to preterm birth and the first feeding. Using piglets as models for infants, preterm, and term pigs were fed total parenteral nutrition (TPN) or partial enteral feeding for 5 days, followed by exclusive enteral feeding with bovine milk until day 26 (weaning age). Intestinal structure, function, microbiome, DNA methylome, and gene expressions were compared between preterm and term pigs on days 0, 5, and 26 (n = 8 in each group). At birth, the intestine of preterm pigs showed villus atrophy and global hypermethylation, affecting genes related to the Wnt signaling pathway. Hypermethylation-associated lowered expression of lipopolysaccharide-binding protein and genes related to the Toll-like receptor 4 pathway were evident during the first 5 days of life, but most early methylation differences disappeared by day 26. Regardless, sucrase and maltase activities (adult-type brush border enzymes) remained reduced, and the gut microbiota altered (fewer Akkermansia, more Lachnoclostridia and Lactobacilli) until day 26 in preterm pigs. During the 0- to 5-day period, many new preterm–term methylation differences appeared, but mainly when no enteral feed was provided (TPN feeding). These methylation differences affected intestinal genes related to cell metabolism, including increased GCK (glucokinase) expression via promoter hypomethylation. In conclusion, the immature intestine has a remarkable capacity to adapt its gene methylation and expression after preterm birth, and only few preterm-related defects persisted until weaning. Early enteral feeding may be important to stimulate the methylation reprogramming of intestinal genes, allowing rapid intestinal adaptation to preterm birth.

Abstract
New generation, multicomponent parenteral lipid emulsions provide key fatty acids for brain growth and development, such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid (AA), yet the content may be suboptimal for preterm infants. Our aim was to test whether DHA and AA-enriched lipid emulsions would increase activity, growth, and neurodevelopment in preterm piglets and limit brain inflammation. Cesarean-delivered preterm pigs were given three weeks of either enteral preterm infant formula (ENT) or TPN with one of three parenteral lipid emulsions: Intralipid (IL), SMOFlipid (SMOF) or an experimental emulsion (EXP). Activity was continuously monitored and weekly blood sampling and behavioral field testing performed. At termination of the study, whole body and tissue metrics were collected. Neuronal density was assessed in sections of hippocampus (HC), thalamus, and cortex. Frontal cortex (FC) and HC tissue were assayed for fatty acid profiles and expression of genes of neuronal growth and inflammation. After 3 weeks of treatment, brain DHA content in SMOF, EXP and ENT pigs was higher (P < 0.01) in FC but not HC vs. IL pigs. There were no differences in brain weight or neuron density among treatment groups. Inflammatory cytokine TNFα and IL-1β expression in brain regions were increased in IL pigs (P < 0.05) compared to other groups. Overall growth velocity was similar among groups, but IL pigs had higher percent body fat and increased insulin resistance compared to other treatments (P < 0.05). ENT pigs spent more time in higher physical activity levels compared to all TPN groups, but there were no differences in exploratory behavior among groups. We conclude that a soybean oil emulsion increased select brain inflammatory cytokines and multicomponent lipid emulsions enriched with DHA and AA in parenteral lipids results in increased cortical DHA and improved body composition without affecting short term neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Abstract
Postnatal growth of lean mass is commonly blunted in preterm infants and may contribute to short- and long-term morbidities. To determine whether preterm birth alters the protein anabolic response to feeding, piglets were delivered at term or preterm, and fractional protein synthesis rates (Ks) were measured at 3 days of age while fasted or after an enteral meal. Activation of signaling pathways that regulate protein synthesis and degradation were determined. Relative body weight gain was lower in preterm than in term. Gestational age at birth (GAB) did not alter fasting plasma glucose or insulin, but when fed, plasma insulin and glucose rose more slowly, and reached peak value later, in preterm than in term. Feeding increased Ks in longissimus dorsi (LD) and gastrocnemius muscles, heart, pancreas, and kidney in both GAB groups, but the response was blunted in preterm. In diaphragm, lung, jejunum, and brain, feeding increased Ks regardless of GAB. Liver Ks was greater in preterm than term and increased with feeding regardless of GAB. In all tissues, changes in 4EBP1, S6K1, and PKB phosphorylation paralleled changes in Ks. In LD, eIF4E·eIF4G complex formation, phosphorylation of TSC2, mTOR, and rpS6, and association of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR1) complex with RagA, RagC, and Rheb were increased by feeding and blunted by prematurity. There were no differences among groups in LD protein degradation markers. Our results demonstrate that preterm birth reduces weight gain and the protein synthetic response to feeding in muscle, pancreas, and kidney, and this is associated with blunted insulin- and/or amino acid-induced translation initiation signaling.

Mixed Lipid, Fish Oil, and Soybean Oil Parenteral Lipids Impact Cholestasis, Hepatic Phytosterol, and Lipid Composition. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2019; 68:861-867.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In parenteral nutrition-dependent infants and children, intestinal failure (IF)-associated liver disease (IFALD) remains an important problem. A comparative study was undertaken of parenteral mixed lipid (ML), ω-3 predominant fish oil (FO), and ω-6 predominant soybean oil (SO) emulsions in regards to hepatic phytosterol, neutral lipid, fatty acid (FA) content, and the relationship to cholestasis in piglets. METHODS Neonatal piglets received parenteral nutrition, varying in lipid dose (5 or 10 g· kg · day) and formulation: SO5 (n = 5), SO10 (n = 5), FO5 (n = 5), and ML10 (n = 5). On day 14, liver chemistry, bile flow, histology and neutral lipid staining were assessed. Hepatic triglyceride FA content was determined using thin layer and gas chromatography, and phytosterol content was assessed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS SO groups had higher prevalence of biochemical cholestasis (P < 0.04) and lower bile flow (P < 0.0001). Hepatic campesterol, stigmasterol, and β-sitosterol were highest in SO10 (P < 0.0001). Hepatic FA (P < 0.03) and ω-6/ω-3 FA ratio (P < 0.0001) were higher in the SO groups. Neutral lipid accumulation (P = 0.3) and liver histology (P = 0.16) were not different between groups. Univariate predictors of bile flow were: campesterol (r = -0.77, P = 0.001), β-sitosterol (r = -0.74, P = 0.002), stigmasterol (r = -0.74, P = 0.002), ω-6 FA (r = -0.72, P = 0.002), and ω-3 FA (r = 0.59, P = 0.02). Only campesterol independently predicted bile flow. CONCLUSIONS ML and FO lipid emulsions reduce cholestasis in association with lowered hepatic phytosterol and lipid content. Lower hepatic phytosterol and ω-6 FA content, and higher ω-3 FA content are hepatoprotective. Multivariate analysis suggests reduced phytosterol accumulation may best explain the hepatoprotective effect of fish oil-containing lipids.

Abstract
The goal of nutrition of the preterm infant is to "provide nutrients to approximate the rate of growth and composition of weight gain for a normal fetus of the same postmenstrual age and to maintain normal concentrations of blood and tissue nutrients" (American Academy of Pediatrics 2014). Failure to provide the necessary amounts of all of the essential nutrients to preterm infants has produced not only growth failure, but also increased morbidity and less than optimal neurodevelopment. This continues to be true despite many efforts to increase nutrition of the preterm infants. In contrast, enhanced nutrition of very preterm infants, both intravenous and enteral, beginning right after birth, promotes positive energy and protein balance and improves longer term neurodevelopmental outcomes. The benefits are long lasting too, particularly for prevention of later life chronic diseases.

Abstract
Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a threatening complication for children on long-term parenteral nutrition because of intestinal failure. When progressive and intractable, it may jeopardize intestinal rehabilitation and lead to combined liver and intestinal transplantation. The institution of dedicated intestinal failure centers has dramatically decreased the incidence of such complication. IFALD may rapidly fade away if very early management aimed at preventing progression to end-stage liver disease is provided. In this review, we address the etiology and risk factors of IFALD in order to introduce pillars of prevention (nutritional management and catheter-related infections control). The latest evidence of therapeutic strategies, such as medical and surgical treatments, is also discussed.

Enteral Bile Acid Treatment Preserves Gut Growth but Not Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Liver Injury in a Novel Extensive Short Bowel Animal Model. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2018; 42:1238-1251. [PMID: 29701901 DOI: 10.1002/jpen.1167] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2017] [Accepted: 02/27/2018] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) provides nutrition intravenously; however, this life-saving therapy is associated with significant liver disease. Recent evidence indicates improvement in PN-associated injury in animals with intact gut treated with enteral bile acid (BA), chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), and a gut farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonist, which drives the gut-liver cross talk (GLCT). We hypothesized that similar improvement could be translated in animals with short bowel syndrome (SBS). METHODS Using piglets, we developed a novel 90% gut-resected SBS model. Fifteen SBS piglets receiving PN were given CDCA or control (vehicle control) for 2 weeks. Tissue and serum were analyzed posteuthanasia. RESULTS CDCA increased gut FXR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction; P = .008), but not downstream FXR targets. No difference in gut fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19; P = .28) or hepatic FXR (P = .75), FGF19 (P = .86), FGFR4 (P = .53), or Cholesterol 7 α-hydroxylase (P = .61) was noted. PN resulted in cholestasis; however, no improvement was noted with CDCA. Hepatic fibrosis or immunostaining for Ki67, CD3, or Cytokeratin 7 was not different with CDCA. PN resulted in gut atrophy. CDCA preserved (P = .04 vs control) gut mass and villous/crypt ratio. The median (interquartile range) for gut mass for control was 0.28 (0.17-0.34) and for CDCA was 0.33 (0.26-0.46). CONCLUSIONS We note that, unlike in animals with intact gut, in an SBS animal model there is inadequate CDCA-induced activation of gut-derived signaling to cause liver improvement. Thus, it appears that activation of GLCT is critically dependent on the presence of adequate gut. This is clinically relevant because it suggests that BA therapy may not be as effective for patients with SBS.

Abstract
Premature neonates are in an energy deficient state due to (1) oxygen desaturation and hypoxia events, (2) painful and stressful stimuli, (3) illness, and (4) neurodevelopmental energy requirements. Failure to correct energy deficiency in premature infants may lead to adverse effects such as neurodevelopmental delay and negative long-term metabolic and cardiovascular outcomes. The effects of energy dysregulation and the challenges that clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) face in meeting the premature infant's metabolic demands are discussed. Specifically, the focus is on the effects of pain and stress on energy homeostasis. Energy deficiency is a complex problem and requires a multi-faceted solution to promote optimum development of premature infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficiency of choline, a required nutrient, is related to intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of choline supplementation on IFALD and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats (4 weeks old) were fed AIN-93G chow and administered intravenous 0.9% saline (control), parenteral nutrition (PN), or PN plus intravenous choline (600 mg/kg) for 7 days. We evaluated body weight, hepatic histology, biochemical indicators, triglycerides, oxidative status, methylation levels of peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) gene promoter, expression of PPARα and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), and levels of choline metabolites. RESULTS The PN + choline group exhibited improved body weight compared with the PN group. PN impaired hepatic function, increased hepatic triglycerides, induced dyslipidemia, enhanced reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, and reduced total antioxidant capacity. The PN group had higher pathologic scores than the control group. These results were prevented by choline administration. Compared with the control group, PN increased PPARα promoter methylation and hepatic betaine concentration, reduced hepatic choline and phosphatidylcholine (PC) levels, decreased plasma choline and betaine concentrations, and downregulated PPARα and CPT1 mRNA and protein expression. Choline supplementation elevated hepatic choline and PC levels and enhanced plasma choline, betaine, and PC concentrations but reduced hepatic betaine level, reversed PPARα promoter hypermethylation, and upregulated PPARα and CPT1 mRNA and protein expression in PN-fed rats, compared with rats receiving PN alone. CONCLUSION Choline addition to PN may prevent IFALD by reducing oxidative stress, enhancing hepatic fat export, and promoting fatty acid catabolism in immature rats receiving PN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) remains a serious problem in the treatment of infants with nutritional problems and short bowel syndrome. METHODS A review of the recent literature from 2010 to 2016, concentrating on articles related to the pathophysiology of IFALD and to outcomes of novel nutritional and pharmacological therapies for neonatal cholestasis in the post-surgical neonate. RESULTS The pathophysiology of IFALD relates to an increase sensitivity of the neonatal liver to cholestasis in the non-fed state; prolonged cholestasis almost inevitably results in liver damage which will progress from fibrosis to cirrhosis. Clinically discerned risk factors include premature birth, inflammation, sepsis, disruption of the enterohepatic circulation by creation of a proximal stoma, and the duration and type of parenteral nutritional support. Within the hepatocyte, the regulatory enzyme farsanoid receptor X (FXR) appears to play a pivotal role in the development of cholestasis. Recent studies have shown that its activity is suppressed by sepsis, and by plant phytosterols found in soy-based lipid preparations. This paradigm is reflected in the emerging consensus for the care of post-surgical neonates, which is based around a multi-disciplinary team approach. Using an algorithm-driven approach, an appropriate balance between caloric support and prevention of IFALD can be achieved. CONCLUSIONS Further prospective studies are required to further refine the optimal sequence of use of these therapies and the long-term effects on neurological development and hepatic function. However, with optimal care, the number of IF patients progressing to end-stage liver disease because of IFALD should be very low.

Abstract
The goal of nutrition of the preterm infant is to meet the growth rate of the healthy fetus of the same gestational age and to produce the same body composition of the healthy fetus in terms of organ growth, tissue components, and cell number and structure. Nutritional quantity and quality are fundamental for normal growth and development of preterm infants, including neurodevelopmental outcomes. Failure to provide the necessary amounts of all of the essential nutrients has produced not only growth failure, but also increased morbidity and less than optimal neurodevelopment. Growth velocities during the NICU hospitalization period for preterm infants exert a significant effect on neurodevelopmental and anthropometric outcomes. Despite the obvious need for optimal nutrition, growth failure is almost universal among preterm infants. There is every reason, therefore, to optimize nutrition of the preterm infant, in terms of total energy and protein, but also in terms of individual components such as amino acids, specific carbohydrates and lipids, and even oxygen. This review presents scientific rationale for nutrient requirements and practical guidelines and approaches to intravenous and enteral feeding for preterm infants. Intravenous feeding, including amino acids, should be started right after birth at rates that are appropriate for the gestational age of the infant. Enteral feeding should be started as soon as possible after birth, using mother's colostrum and milk as first choices. Enteral feeding should begin with trophic amounts and advanced as rapidly as tolerated, decreasing IV nutrition accordingly, while maintaining nutrient intakes at recommended rates. Feeding protocols are valuable for improving nutrition and related outcomes. Further research is needed to determine the optimal nutrition and rate of growth in preterm infants that will achieve optimal neurocognitive benefits while minimizing the longer-term risk of chronic diseases.

Abstract
We aimed to characterize the lipidomic, metabolomic, and transcriptomic profiles in preterm piglets administered enteral (ENT) formula or three parenteral lipid emulsions [parenteral nutrition (PN)], Intralipid (IL), Omegaven (OV), or SMOFlipid (SL), for 14 days. Piglets in all parenteral lipid groups showed differential organ growth versus ENT piglets; whole body growth rate was lowest in IL piglets, yet there were no differences in either energy expenditure or (13)C-palmitate oxidation. Plasma homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance demonstrated insulin resistance in IL, but not OV or SL, compared with ENT. The fatty acid and acyl-CoA content of the liver, muscle, brain, and plasma fatty acids reflected the composition of the dietary lipids administered. Free carnitine and acylcarnitine (ACT) levels were markedly reduced in the PN groups compared with ENT piglets. Genes associated with oxidative stress and inflammation were increased, whereas those associated with alternative pathways of fatty acid oxidation were decreased in all PN groups. Our results show that new generation lipid emulsions directly enrich tissue fatty acids, especially in the brain, and lead to improved growth and insulin sensitivity compared with a soybean lipid emulsion. In all total PN groups, carnitine levels are limiting to the formation of ACTs and gene expression reflects the stress of excess lipid on liver function.

Abstract
Stimulation of digestive organs by enteric peptides is lost during total parental nutrition (PN). Here we examine the role of the enteric peptide bombesin (BBS) in stimulation of the exocrine and endocrine pancreas during PN. BBS protects against exocrine pancreas atrophy and dysfunction caused by PN. BBS also augments circulating insulin levels, suggesting an endocrine pancreas phenotype. While no significant changes in gross endocrine pancreas morphology were observed, pancreatic islets isolated from BBS-treated PN mice showed a significantly enhanced insulin secretion response to the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist exendin-4, correlating with enhanced GLP-1 receptor expression. BBS itself had no effect on islet function, as reflected in low expression of BBS receptors in islet samples. Intestinal BBS receptor expression was enhanced in PN with BBS, and circulating active GLP-1 levels were significantly enhanced in BBS-treated PN mice. We hypothesized that BBS preserved islet function indirectly, through the enteroendocrine cell-pancreas axis. We confirmed the ability of BBS to directly stimulate intestinal enteroid cells to express the GLP-1 precursor preproglucagon. In conclusion, BBS preserves the exocrine and endocrine pancreas functions during PN; however, the endocrine stimulation is likely indirect, through the enteroendocrine cell-pancreas axis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morbidities of impaired immunity and dysregulated inflammation are common in preterm infants. Postnatal Intestinal development plays a critical role in the maturation of the immune system and is, in part, driven by exposure to an enteral diet. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the timing of the first enteral feeding on intestinal inflammation and risk of disease. METHODS 130 infants <33 weeks' gestation were studied. Maternal and infant data were abstracted from the medical record. Single and multiplex ELISA assays quantified cytokines from fecal and serum samples at two weeks postnatal age. RESULTS A delay in enteral feedings after the third postnatal day is associated with a 4.5 (95% CI 1.8-11.5, p=0.002) fold increase in chronic lung disease, 2.9 (1.1-7.8, p=0.03) fold increase in retinopathy of prematurity, and 3.4 (1.2-9.8, p=0.02) fold increase in multiple comorbidities compared to infants fed on or before the third day. Additionally, a delay in the initiation of feedings is associated with increased fecal IL-8 levels and a decreased IL-10:IL-8 ratio. CONCLUSIONS A delay in enteral feeding is associated with intestinal inflammation and increased risks of morbidities. To improve neonatal outcomes, early nutritional practices need to be reevaluated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ossabaw miniature swine when fed a diet high in fructose, saturated fat and cholesterol (NASH diet) develop metabolic syndrome and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) characterized by liver injury and fibrosis. This study was conducted to further characterize the development of NASH in this large animal model. METHODS Ossabaw swine were fed standard chow (control group; n = 6) or NASH diet (n = 6) for 24 weeks. Blood and liver tissue were collected and liver histology were characterized at 0, 8, 16 and 24 weeks of dietary intervention. Hepatic apoptosis and lipid levels were assessed at week 24. RESULTS The NASH diet group developed metabolic syndrome and progressive histologic features of NASH including: (a) hepatocyte ballooning at 8 weeks which progressed to extensive ballooning (>90% hepatocytes), (b) hepatic fibrosis at week 16, which progressed to moderate fibrosis, and (c) Kupffer cell accumulation with vacuolization at 8 weeks which progressed through week 24. The NASH diet group showed increased hepatocyte apoptosis that correlated with hepatic total and free cholesterol and free fatty acids, but not esterified cholesterol or triglycerides. CONCLUSIONS This report further characterizes the progression of diet-induced NASH in the Ossabaw swine model. In Ossabaw swine fed the NASH diet: (a) hepatocyte injury and fibrosis can occur without macrovesicular steatosis or excess triglyceride accumulation; (b) hepatocyte ballooning generally precedes the development of fibrosis; (c) there is increased hepatocyte apoptosis, and it is correlated more significantly with hepatic free cholesterol than hepatic free fatty acids and had no correlation with hepatic triglycerides.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF), due to short bowel syndrome (SBS), results from surgical resection of a major portion of the intestine, leading to reduced nutrient absorption and need for parenteral nutrition (PN). The incidence is highest in infants and relates to preterm birth, necrotizing enterocolitis, atresia, gastroschisis, volvulus, and aganglionosis. Patient outcomes have improved, but there is a need to develop new therapies for SBS and to understand intestinal adaptation after different diseases, resection types, and nutritional and pharmacological interventions. Animal studies are needed to carefully evaluate the cellular mechanisms, safety, and translational relevance of new procedures. Distal intestinal resection, without a functioning colon, results in the most severe complications and adaptation may depend on the age at resection (preterm, term, young, adult). Clinically relevant therapies have recently been suggested from studies in preterm and term PN-dependent SBS piglets, with or without a functional colon. Studies in rats and mice have specifically addressed the fundamental physiological processes underlying adaptation at the cellular level, such as regulation of mucosal proliferation, apoptosis, transport, and digestive enzyme expression, and easily allow exogenous or genetic manipulation of growth factors and their receptors (e.g., glucagon-like peptide 2, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1, epidermal growth factor, keratinocyte growth factor). The greater size of rats, and especially young pigs, is an advantage for testing surgical procedures and nutritional interventions (e.g., PN, milk diets, long-/short-chain lipids, pre- and probiotics). Conversely, newborn pigs (preterm or term) and weanling rats provide better insights into the developmental aspects of treatment for SBS in infants owing to their immature intestines. The review shows that a balance among practical, economical, experimental, and ethical constraints will determine the choice of SBS model for each clinical or basic research question.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is associated with the development of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) in infants. Fish oil-based lipid emulsions can reverse PNALD, yet it is unknown if they can prevent PNALD. We studied preterm pigs administered TPN for 14 days with either 100% soybean oil (IL), 100% fish oil (OV), or a mixture of soybean oil, medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), olive oil, and fish oil (SL); a group was fed formula enterally (ENT). In TPN-fed pigs, serum direct bilirubin, gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), and plasma bile acids increased after the 14 day treatment but were highest in IL pigs. All TPN pigs had suppressed hepatic expression of farnesoid X receptor (FXR), cholesterol 7-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), and plasma 7α-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (C4) concentrations, yet hepatic CYP7A1 protein abundance was increased only in the IL versus ENT group. Organic solute transporter alpha (OSTα) gene expression was the highest in the IL group and paralleled plasma bile acid levels. In cultured hepatocytes, bile acid-induced bile salt export pump (BSEP) expression was inhibited by phytosterol treatment. We show that TPN-fed pigs given soybean oil developed cholestasis and steatosis that was prevented with both OV and SL emulsions. Due to the presence of phytosterols in the SL emulsion, the differences in cholestasis and liver injury among lipid emulsion groups in vivo were weakly correlated with plasma and hepatic phytosterol content.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-saving nutritional support for a large population of hospitalized infants, and lipids make a substantial contribution to their energy and essential fatty acid (FA) needs. A challenge in the care of these infants is that their metabolic needs require prolonged PN support that increases the risk of PN-associated liver disease (PNALD). In recent years, the emergence of new parenteral lipid emulsions containing different source lipids and FA profiles has created nutritional alternatives to the first-generation, soybean oil-based lipid emulsion Intralipid. The limited U.S. introduction of the new-generation fish-oil emulsion Omegaven has generated promising results in infants with PNALD and spawned a renewed interest in how PN and lipid emulsions, in particular, contribute to this disease. Studies suggest that the lipid load and constituents, such as specific FAs, ratio of n-3 (ω-3) to n-6 (ω-6) long-chain polyunsaturated FAs, phytosterols, and vitamin E content, may be involved. There is an existing literature describing the molecular mechanisms whereby these specific nutrients affect hepatic metabolism and function via lipid and bile acid sensing nuclear receptors, such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α, liver X receptor, and farnesoid X receptor, yet virtually no information as to how they interact and modulate liver function in the context of PN in pediatric patients or animal models. This article will review the recent development of parenteral lipid emulsions and their influence on PNALD and highlight some of the emerging molecular mechanisms that may explain the effects on liver function and disease.

Abstract
The neonatal pig ranks among the most prominent research models for the study of pediatric nutrition and metabolism. Its precocial development at birth affords ready adaptation to artificial rearing systems, and research using this model spans a wide array of nutrients. Sophisticated in vitro and in vivo methodologies supporting both invasive, reduction-science research as well as whole-animal preclinical investigations have been developed. Potential applications may dually benefit both agricultural and medical sciences (e.g., "agrimedical research"). The broad scope of this review is to outline the fundamental elements of the piglet model and to highlight key aspects of relevance to various macronutrients, including lipids, carbohydrates, proteins/amino acids, and calcium/phosphorus. The review examines similarities between piglets and infants and also piglet idiosyncrasies, concluding that, overall, the piglet represents an adaptable and robust model for pediatric nutrition and metabolism research.

Abstract
Advancements in the care of premature infants and infants with severe bowel disease have occurred in which long-term use of i.v. nutrition is a cornerstone of successful therapy. Concern about the role of i.v. lipid emulsions in causing severe liver damage to high-risk infants receiving long-term i.v. nutrition has led to a variety of intervention strategies. These have had relatively limited success until the recent introduction of omega-3 (n-3) fatty acid-containing forms of lipid emulsions in place of the current omega-6 fatty acid-predominant lipid emulsions currently exclusively used in the United States. Preliminary data based on nonrandomized trials performed using compassionate-use protocols in the United States suggest very high rates of resolution of cholestasis with the use of an omega-3 fatty acid-predominant lipid emulsion. This result is supported by animal models of liver disease that demonstrate decreased liver damage when animals are provided omega-3 fatty acid-containing lipid emulsions compared with those primarily omega-6 fatty acid based. However, human trials are limited at this time and further research is needed to establish the best approach to preventing liver damage in infants receiving i.v. nutrition and the optimal dose and timing of intervention with novel lipid emulsions.

Abstract
At birth, the newborn mammal undergoes a transition from a sterile uterine environment with a constant nutrient supply, to a microbe-rich environment with intermittent oral intake of complex milk nutrients via the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). These functional challenges partly explain the relatively high morbidity and mortality of neonates. Preterm birth interrupts prenatal organ maturation, including that of the GIT, and increases disease risk. Exemplary is necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), which is associated closely with GIT immaturity, enteral feeding, and bacterial colonization. Infants with NEC may require resection of the necrotic parts of the intestine, leading to short bowel syndrome (SBS), characterized by reduced digestive capacity, fluid loss, and dependency on parenteral nutrition. This review presents the preterm pig as a translational model in pediatric gastroenterology that has provided new insights into important pediatric diseases such as NEC and SBS. We describe protocols for delivery, care, and handling of preterm pigs, and show how the immature GIT responds to delivery method and different nutritional and therapeutic interventions. The preterm pig may also provide a sensitive model for postnatal adaptation of weak term piglets showing high mortality. Attributes of the preterm pig model include close similarities with preterm infants in body size, organ development, and many clinical features, thereby providing a translational advantage relative to rodent models of GIT immaturity. On the other hand, the need for a sow surgical facility, a piglet intensive care unit, and clinically trained personnel may limit widespread use of preterm pigs. Studies on organ adaptation in preterm pigs help to identify the physiological basis of neonatal survival for hypersensitive newborns and aid in defining the optimal diet and rearing conditions during the critical neonatal period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Cholestasis affects 50% of extremely low-birth-weight infants. Its etiology remains poorly understood and the extent of liver injury in these infants is unclear. The premature baboon model provides an opportunity to study neonatal liver disease. We characterize hepatic histopathologic changes in this model. METHODS Archival tissue and data were obtained from the Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Research Primate Center, San Antonio, TX. Animals were selected based on history of antenatal steroid therapy and absence of sepsis or necrotizing enterocolitis with a protocol duration of at least 21 days and no early death (n = 45). Baboons had been treated per protocol in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). At necropsy, liver tissue was harvested and stored. Tissues from fetal gestational controls at similar ages were used for comparison (n = 28). Histologic changes were scored by consensus of 2 pathologists blinded to treatment group. Descriptive and comparative statistics were performed. RESULTS Control fetal livers had extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) that decreased across the gestational range. There was evidence of hepatocyte iron storage and ongoing portal tract development. Livers of NICU-treated baboons had increased Kupffer cell hypertrophy and hemosiderosis. There was a shift away from erythroid EMH toward increased myeloid EMH. There was increased cholestasis, ductular proliferation, portal tract fibrosis, and steatosis in treated animals. CONCLUSIONS We found pathologic changes in NICU-treated baboons comparable with findings reported in human infants. The baboon model of prematurity may be a useful tool to explore cholestasis and liver dysfunction in extremely low-birth-weight infants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) has a high risk of hepatic dysfunction and intestinal atrophy. The present study investigated the effect of PN-induced intestinal atrophy and hepatic impairment on drug pharmacokinetics by using 2 contrasting compounds: phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP) and cyclosporin A (CyA). MATERIALS AND METHODS PSP or CyA was administered to 7-day PN-fed Rats (PN rats) and sham operated rats (control rats) via intravenous (IV) or intraloop administration of the intestine. Pharmacokinetic parameters with 2-compartment analysis including area under the concentration vs time curve (AUC) and the permeability after in situ intraloop administration (P loop) were obtained from both concentration profiles after different administration routes. RESULTS After IV administration of PSP to control and PN rats, there was no notable difference in any of the pharmacokinetic parameters. In contrast, after intraloop administration, AUC and P loop in PN rats were approximately 2.6- and 2.0-fold higher than that in control rats, respectively. On the other hand, after IV administration of CyA, the terminal half-life and total body clearance were prolonged and decreased in PN rats, respectively, resulting in 2.0-fold increase in AUC. After intraloop administration, the AUC of PN rats was increased to approximately 1.3-fold that of control rats, whereas no notable difference was observed in P loop. CONCLUSION The intestinal permeability of PSP was enhanced by intestinal atrophy induced by PN, while the metabolism of CyA was diminished by hepatic impairment by PN. These results revealed the physicochemical property-based pharmacokinetic alterations during PN; for a more detailed understanding, however, further studies are needed.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is an artificial way to support daily nutritional requirements by bypassing the digestive system, but long-term TPN administration may cause severe liver dysfunction. Glycyrrhizin is an active component of licorice root that has been widely used to treat chronic hepatitis. The aim of this study is to investigate the hepatoprotective effect of glycyrrhizin on TPN-associated acute liver injury in vivo. Liver dysfunction was induced by intravenous infusion of TPN at a flow rate of 20 mL/kg/h for three h in Sprague Dawley rats. The rats were pretreated with Glycyrrhizin (1, 3 and 10 mg/kg intravenously). After receiving TPN or saline (control group) for three h, the rats were sacrificed, blood samples were collected for biochemical analyses and liver tissue was removed for histopathological and immunohistochemical examination. We found that aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (TB) and triglyceride (TG) levels were significantly increased in the TPN group without glycyrrhizin pretreatment and decreased in the glycyrrhizin-pretreated TPN group in a dose-dependent manner. The stained liver sections showed that glycyrrhizin relieved acute liver injury. The upregulation of serum protein biomarkers of reactive nitrogen species, including nitrotyrosine and inducible NO synthase (iNOS), were attenuated by glycyrrhizin pretreatment. Levels of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress factors, such as phosphorylation of JNK1/2, p38 MAPK and CHOP, were decreased by glycyrrhizin pretreatment. In summary, our results suggest that glycyrrhizin decreases TPN-associated acute liver injury factors by suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress and reactive nitrogen stress.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to assess the potential influence of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) on body composition (BC) in preterm infants. STUDY DESIGN This prospective, observational study of infants born <35 weeks measured BC at discharge using air displacement plethysmography. The % body fat (BF) at discharge was correlated with variables gestational age (GA), severity of illness, days on oxygen, time to regain birth weight and duration of TPN. RESULT The 61 patients enrolled had a %BF at discharge of 13.9%. GA and TPN days correlated with %BF for the entire group. Multiple regression analysis identified that the time to regain birth weight added to the effect of GA, but not TPN. Isolating the influence of TPN in a subgroup of similarly aged infants (30-35 weeks) did not reveal a difference in body composition at the time of discharge between infants who did or did not receive TPN. CONCLUSION These findings fail to demonstrate a clear influence of TPN on the increased accrual of BF in premature infants and implicate gestational modification in nutrient/caloric utilization as a principle regulator of body composition in premature newborns.

Abstract
Bile acids have historically been considered to mainly function in cholesterol homeostasis and facilitate fat digestion in the gastrointestinal tract. Recent discoveries show that bile acids also function as signaling molecules that exert diverse endocrine and metabolic actions by activating G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1/G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 or TGR5), a membrane G protein-coupled receptor, and farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. These bile acid sensing receptors are expressed in intestinal epithelial cells, TGR5 in enteroendocrine cells and FXR in enterocytes, which line the mucosa of gut lumen. A dominant effect of intestinal FXR activation by bile acids is secretion of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 19, a novel enterokine that functions as a central enterohepatic signal to maintain bile acid homeostasis in the liver. Activation of TGR5 on enteroendocrine cells stimulates secretion of glucagon-like peptides (GLP)-1 and -2, which function, respectively, as the major incretin hormone involved in glucose homeostasis and key trophic hormone in intestinal adaptation and growth in response to food ingestion. The biological actions induced by bile acid activation of intestinal FXR and TGR5 have important therapeutic implications for the pathogenesis and treatment of several metabolic diseases, such as cholestasis and diabetes. This review highlights these new developments in the biology of intestinal bile acid sensing and metabolic function and discusses the potential implications for the health and agricultural production of domestic swine.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that free glutamate may play a functional role in modulating gastroduodenal motor function. We hypothesized that supplementing monosodium glutamate (MSG) to partial enteral nutrition stimulates gastric emptying in preterm pigs. Ten-day-old preterm, parenterally fed pigs received partial enteral nutrition (25%) as milk-based formula supplemented with MSG at 0, 1.7, 3.0, and 4.3 times the basal protein-bound glutamate intake (468 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1)) from d 4 to 8 of life (n = 5-8). Whole-body respiratory calorimetry and (13)C-octanoic acid breath tests were performed on d 4, 6, and 8. Body weight gain, stomach and intestinal weights, and arterial plasma glutamate and glutamine concentrations were not different among the MSG groups. Arterial plasma glutamate concentrations were significantly higher at birth than after 8 d of partial enteral nutrition. Also at d 8, the significant portal-arterial concentration difference in plasma glutamate was substantial (∼500 μmol/L) among all treatment groups, suggesting that there was substantial net intestinal glutamate absorption in preterm pigs. MSG supplementation dose-dependently increased gastric emptying time and decreased breath (13)CO2 enrichments, (13)CO2 production, percentage of (13)CO2 recovery/h, and cumulative percentage recovery of (13)C-octanoic acid. Circulating glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) concentration was significantly increased by MSG but was not associated with an increase in intestinal mucosal growth. In contrast to our hypothesis, our results suggest that adding MSG to partial enteral nutrition slows the gastric emptying rate, which may be associated with an inhibitory effect of increased circulating GLP-2.
