Alteration of canalicular transporters in a mouse model of total parenteral nutrition.

ABSTRACT: Parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) is a major problem with prolonged total parenteral nutrition (TPN) administration. Our laboratory previously demonstrated significant changes in the expression of multidrug resistance genes (MDRs) 1 and 2, hepatocyte transporters, in a TPN mouse model. The present study hypothesized that these changes would lead to functional changes in the liver, and would contribute to the development of liver dysfunction.Mice received either intravenous saline and standard chow or TPN with or without intravenous lipids. Functional assays were performed after 7 days of infusion.TPN with lipids led to a significant increase in serum bile acid levels, consistent with an early state of PNALD. Use of TPN without lipids prevented an elevation in bile acid levels. In both TPN groups, MDR2 expression was significantly (68%) lower than controls and bile phosphatidylcholine content, a functional measure of MDR2, was 40% less than controls. MDR1 expression in the TPN with lipid group was 31% higher than controls, whereas in the TPN without lipids mice there was no significant change. Hepatocyte extrusion of rhodamine dye, a measure of MDR1 function, declined only in the TPN with lipid group. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha expression decreased in both TPN groups. Fenofibrate given with TPN resulted in an increased expression of MDR1 and MDR2, and functionally increased hepatocyte rhodamine extrusion and presence of bile phosphatidylcholine in the TPN with lipid group.The study shows that TPN led to alterations in the function of MDR1- and MDR2-expressed proteins. The changes help in the understanding of the mechanisms leading to PNALD, and suggest that fibrate administration may palliate these changes.

Project description:BackgroundHyperglycemia is associated with poor clinical outcomes and mortality in several patients. However, studies evaluating hyperglycemia variation in tumor patients receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between glycemia and tumor kinds with TPN by monitoring glycemic variation in tumor patients.MethodsThis retrospective clinical trial selected 312 patients with various cancer types, whose unique nutrition treatment was TPN during the monitoring period. All patients had blood glucose (BG) values assessed at least six times daily during the TPN infusion. The glycemic variation before and after TPN was set as the indicator to evaluate the factors influencing BG.ResultsThe clinical trial lasted 7.5 ± 3.0 days adjusted for age, gender, family cancer history and blood types. There were six cancer types: Hepatic carcinoma (HC, 21.8%), rectal carcinoma (17.3%), colon carcinoma (CC, 14.7%), gastric carcinoma (29.8%), pancreatic carcinoma (11.5%), and duodenal carcinoma (DC, 4.8%). The patients were divided into diabetes and nondiabetes groups. No statistical differences in TPN glucose content between diabetes and nondiabetes groups were found; however, the tumor types affected by BG values were obvious. With increasing BG values, DC, HC and CC were more represented than other tumor types in this sequence in diabetic individuals, as well as in the nondiabetic group. BG was inclined to be more easily influenced in the nondiabetes group. Other factors did not impact BG values, including gender, body mass index, and TPN infusion duration time.ConclusionsWhen tumor patients are treated with TPN, BG levels should be monitored according to different types of tumors, besides differentiating diabetes or nondiabetes patients. Special BG control is needed for DC, HC and CC in both diabetic and nondiabetic patients. If BG overtly increases, positive measurements are needed to control BG values. The ClinicalTrials.gov ID is NCT02024321.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) provides all nutritional needs intravenously. Although lifesaving, enthusiasm is significantly tempered due to side effects of liver and gut injury, as well as lack of mechanistic understanding into drivers of TPN injury. We hypothesized that the state of luminal nutritional deprivation with TPN drives alterations in gut-systemic signaling, contributing to injury, and tested this hypothesis using our ambulatory TPN model. METHODS:A total of 16 one-week-old piglets were allocated randomly to TPN (n = 8) or enteral nutrition (EN, n = 8) for 3 weeks. Liver, gut, and serum were analyzed. All tests were two-sided, with a significance level of 0.05. RESULTS:TPN resulted in significant hyperbilirubinemia and cholestatic liver injury, p = 0.034. Hepatic inflammation (cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) immunohistochemistry) was higher with TPN (p = 0.021). No significant differences in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or bile ductular proliferation were noted. TPN resulted in reduction of muscularis mucosa thickness and marked gut atrophy. Median and interquartile range for gut mass was 0.46 (0.30-0.58) g/cm in EN, and 0.19 (0.11-0.29) g/cm in TPN (p = 0.024). Key gut-systemic signaling regulators, liver farnesoid X receptor (FXR; p = 0.021), liver constitutive androstane receptor (CAR; p = 0.014), gut FXR (p = 0.028), G-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) (p = 0.003), epidermal growth factor (EGF; p = 0.016), organic anion transporter (OAT; p = 0.028), Mitogen-activated protein kinases-1 (MAPK1) (p = 0.037), and sodium uptake transporter sodium glucose-linked transporter (SGLT-1; p = 0.010) were significantly downregulated in TPN animals, whereas liver cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CyP7A1) was substantially higher with TPN (p = 0.011). CONCLUSION:We report significant alterations in key hepatobiliary receptors driving gut-systemic signaling in a TPN piglet model. This presents a major advancement to our understanding of TPN-associated injury and suggests opportunities for strategic targeting of the gut-systemic axis, specifically, FXR, TGR5, and EGF in developing ameliorative strategies.
