13C-Labeled-Starch Breath Test in Congenital Sucrase-isomaltase Deficiency.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESES:Human starch digestion is a multienzyme process involving 6 different enzymes: salivary and pancreatic ?-amylase; sucrase and isomaltase (from sucrose-isomaltase [SI]), and maltase and glucoamylase (from maltase-glucoamylase [MGAM]). Together these enzymes cleave starch to smaller molecules ultimately resulting in the absorbable monosaccharide glucose. Approximately 80% of all mucosal maltase activity is accounted for by SI and the reminder by MGAM. Clinical studies suggest that starch may be poorly digested in those with congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (CSID). Poor starch digestion occurs in individuals with CSID and can be documented using a noninvasive C-breath test (BT). METHODS:C-Labled starch was used as a test BT substrate in children with CSID. Sucrase deficiency was previously documented in study subjects by both duodenal biopsy enzyme assays and C-sucrose BT. Breath CO2 was quantitated at intervals before and after serial C-substrate loads (glucose followed 75?minutes later by starch). Variations in metabolism were normalized against C-glucose BT (coefficient of glucose absorption). Control subjects consisted of healthy family members and a group of children with functional abdominal pain with biopsy-proven sucrase sufficiency. RESULTS:Children with CSID had a significant reduction of C-starch digestion mirroring that of their duodenal sucrase and maltase activity and C-sucrase BT. CONCLUSIONS:In children with CSID, starch digestion may be impaired. In children with CSID, starch digestion correlates well with measures of sucrase activity.

Project description:Recently, we have shown that the (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole is more dependent on CYP2C19 metabolic status than (-)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole is a more sensitive and selective probe for evaluating CYP2C19 enzyme activity than the racemic mixture. (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole (95 mg) was administered orally in a sodium bicarbonate solution to healthy volunteers. Breath and plasma samples were collected before and up to 720 min after dosing. The (13)CO2 in exhaled breath samples was measured by infrared spectrometry. Ratios of (13)CO2/(12)CO2 after (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole relative to (13)CO2/(12)CO2 at baseline were expressed as delta over baseline (DOB). (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole concentrations were measured by HPLC. Genomic DNA extracted from whole blood was genotyped for CYP2C19*2, *3 and *17 using Taqman assays. Statistically significant differences in the area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUCplasma(0-?) (p < 0.001) and oral clearance (<0.01) of (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole as well as in the breath test indices (delta over baseline, DOB30; and area under the DOB versus time curve, AUCDOB(0-120)) (p < 0.01) were observed among poor, intermediate and extensive metabolizer of CYP2C19. DOB30 and AUCDOB(0-120) adequately distinguished poor metabolizer from intermediate and extensive metabolizer of CYP2C19. Breath test indices significantly correlated with plasma elimination parameters of (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole (Pearson correlations: -0.68 to -0.73). Although relatively higher breath test indices were observed after administration of (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole (this study) than after (±)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole (previous study), the performance of the racemic and the enantiomer as marker of CYP2C19 activity remained similar. Our data confirm that the metabolism of (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole is highly dependent on CYP2C19 metabolic status, but the breath test derived from it is not superior to the racemic [(13)C]-pantoprazole in evaluating CYP2C19 activity in vivo. Thus, racemic [(13)C]-pantoprazole which is relatively easy to synthesize and more stable than (+)-[(13)C]-pantoprazole is adequate as a probe of this enzyme.
