Male Albino rats (90-100 g) were fed ad libitum (with limited periods of feeding) for 14 days. The diets were adjusted to a crude protein content of 10%. Powdered whole egg, fish meal, yeast and gelatine were used as protein sources. Additionally, one group of rats was fed a protein-free diet. On the 15th day of experiment the rats were fed a test diet at a level of 2 g per 100 g of body weight. 2 hrs after that the rats received 25 muCi of 3H glycine and 5 muCi of 14C-L-Leucine per 100 g of body weight administered by way of intragastric infusion. It was found that a large proportion of the radioactive amino acids were absorbed as early as after 0.5 hr. The highest rate of absorption was observed in animals fed dietary proteins of poor quality or a protein free diet, so that in animals receiving a gelatine diet or a protein-free diet only 68.4% or 56.4% of the administered amount of 14C activity were detected inside the gastro intestinal tract after 0.5 hr. Analogous data for the 3H activity were 52.4% and 25.3%. Maximum absorption occurred after 3-7 hrs. Following this the level of radioactivity in the intestinal contents again increased reaching a peak value after 14-24 hrs; in the case of 14C activity this peak value amounted to 25.4% of the administered dose in animals fed the gelatine diet and 32.8% in the group receiving the protein-free diet. It was established that the major proportion of the resecreted amount of 14C activity was present in leucine. Until 72 hrs after the intake of 14C activity the level of radioactivity was again found to decline, a processes which was induced by processes occurring in the large intestines. Moreover, evidence was obtained in confirmation of previous findings, indicating that the composition of faecal amino acids was constant and unaffected by dietary proteins. 相似文献

Growing male rats received diets of varying biological value (protein sources: powdered whole egg (V); fish meal (F); yeast (H); gelatine (G); protein-free diet (e)) for a 14-day feeding period. Subsequently, 14C leucine and 3H glycine were administered intragastrically. The level of uptake of 14C and 3H radioactivity into blood plasma, liver and muscular tissue and the rate of incorporation of the radioactive tracers into the proteins of these tissues was examined. A negative correlation was found to exist between the incorporation of radioactivity into liver proteins and the biological value of dietary proteins, the former being mainly dependent on the level of incorporation into the liver. For muscular proteins the rate of incorporation decreases with the decreasing biological value of the dietary proteins. This may be attributed to the fact that with poor protein nutrition the rate of protein synthesis in the skeletal muscles is also reduced. Comparative studies on the specific 14C radioactivity from free leucine made in the group on the protein-free diet and in the group receiving the whole egg diet showed that the leucine pool of the skeletal muscles was markedly redueced in animals fed a protein-deficient diet while the leucine pool in the liver remained comparatively constant. 相似文献

Male experimental rats (100 gm liveweight) were distributed into 10 groups of 8 animals each and received balanced diets, with the exception of lysine which was added to the diets in graded amounts in such a way that the lysine content of the diets ranged from 2.44 to 5.92 gm/16 gm N. After a feeding period of 7 days the animals received 3H- and 14C lysine injected intraperitoneally, 4 animals of each group were investigated for the total CO2 excretion and 14CO2 excretion during the first 2 hrs after the injection and for the urinary excretion of radioactivity (48 hours). The remaining animals in each group were used for determining the plasma amino acids and for establishing the specific radioactivity of free lysine in the liver and muscles after an 1-hour incorporation period. Total CO2 excretion was not found to be influenced by the lysine contents while the level of excretion of 14C activity through CO2 and that of specific 14C activity of CO2 increased with increasing lysine concentrations. This produced a broken curve pattern, showing an increased release of 14CO2 (under maintenance conditions) if the diet contained 4 gm lysine/16 gm N and more. Investigations for the specific 14C activity of free lysine in the liver, the main site of lysine oxidation, showed that the increase in 14CO2 release was due to an enhanced rate of lysine catabolism and was not brought about by changes in the pool volume or in specific radioactivity. The levels of urinary 14C excretion were not found to be related to the lysine content of the diets, whereas the curve pattern of 3H excretion observed 5 to 8 hrs after injection was similar to that of 14CO2 excretion. The lysine content of blood plasma and the content of free lysine in the liver increased continuously with increasing levels of dietary lysine. The methodological studies made in the present paper showed that in scientific research a determination of amino acid requirements on the basis of CO2 oxidation data may be a very exact and sensitive method. It will also yield values for maintenance requirements. 相似文献

4 male sheep (average weight: 53.5 kgs) were fed a semisynthetic diet containing acetamide as sole source of nitrogen. At the beginning of the trial twin-labelled 15N-14C-acetamide was administered by way of a ruminal fistula. The curve pattern of 14C activity in the TCE-soluble fraction of the ruminal fluid showed a synchronous behaviour in all animals beginning at 3 hours after the beginning of the trial. A half-life of 2 1/2 hours for the rate of absorption of 14C acetamide and deaminated 14C acetate was established from the decline in 14C activity observed in the TCE-soluble fraction of the ruminal fluid. The peak level of 14C labelling in ruminal proteins was reached after 6 hrs. The specific 14CO2 activity in respiratory air reached its maximum level after 4 hrs, and was then found to decline continuously. 56% of the administered amount of 14C was excreted over a period of up to 50 hrs after beginning of the trial. The very fact that the peak level of 14C activity was observed to appear in the TCE-soluble fraction of the blood plasma as early as after 1 hr seems to indicate that acetamide is also absorbed through the ruminal wall. The half-life of decline in the 14C activity of this fraction was 5.7 hrs. Analysis by thin layer chromatography showed that 75% of this amount of activity is present in 14C acetamide. The rate of 14C incorporation into blood plasma proteins reached a plateau region after 21 hrs, which was also maintained on the 2nd day of the experiment. 6.5% of the administered amount of 14C activity was excreted in the urine until the 7th day of experiment. 76.6% of the amount of urinary 14C activity excreted within a period of 48 hrs were voided as 14C acetamide. 3.8% of the administered amount of 14C activity was excreted with the faeces within the first 6 days of experiment. 相似文献

3 male sheep (phi 48.3 kg) were fed a semisynthetic diet containing acetyl urea as sole protein source and 15N-14C labelled acetyl urea (urea-C labelled) by intraruminal tube. A half life period of 4 hrs was established for the removal of labelled acetyl urea from the TCE-soluble portion of the ruminal fluid. The degree of 14C labelling in ruminal proteins was very low whereas the extent of 15N labelled protein synthesis was quite marked reaching a maximum between the 18th and 24th hour of experiment. The steepest rise of 15N incorporation into ruminal proteins was found to occur between 8 to 12 hrs after start of the experiment, i.e. at the time of peak level of 15N returned from 15N urea via the rumino-hepatic circulation. 23.3% of the amount of 14C activity administered (mean of all 3 experimental animals) was excreted through respiration. The curve patterns of both isotopes in the TCE soluble portion of the ruminal fluid were similar to that of the degasified TCE soluble portion of the blood blasma. At the peak time (8 hrs) a concentration of the nitrogen isotope of about 4 atom% excess of 15N was observed. The level of 14C labeling in blood plasma proteins was insignificant when compared with that of 15N labelling. The ratio at the peak time was 1:10; the same ratio was found for ruminal proteins. From this it can be concluded that the process of labelling of blood plasma proteins proceeds mainly through microbial protein synthesis. Sheep I and III excreted an average of 60.6% of 14C activity and 57.0% of the administered excess of 15N in the urine. 6 hrs after the beginning of the experiment 81% of the amount of urinary 14C activity was found to occur as acetyl urea; after 48 hrs this amount had decreased to 50%. All experimental sheep excreted a urinary sediment consisting mainly of acetyl urea. The level of faecal 14C excretion (1.4%-2.9% of the amount administered) was considerably lower than that of 15N excretion (9.1%--15.6% of the administered dose). The TCE soluble fraction of the faeces contained up to 2% of the 14C dose and 3% of the 15N dose. The true digestibility data of 15N from 15N acetyl urea varied between 96.4% and 98.2%. An average of 40.9% was obtained for the 15N balance over the 7-day trial period. 相似文献

Chymostatin is an effective inhibitor of intracellular proteinases in vitro. In the present experiment male rats were injected intraperitonealy during a 3 days period twice daily with a solution containing 0,9 mg Chymostatin per 100 g live weight. Reference animals received a control injection containing the same solvents but no chymostatin. During this period a daily nitrogen balance was made and metabolic faecal nitrogen and true digestibility of nitrogen were estimated using 15N-labelled animals. Furthermore, apparent biological half lives of proteins in liver and intestinal tissues were determined following the decay curves for radioactivity in proteins 48 hours after injection of L-[5-3H]-arginine und L-[guanido-14C]-arginine. The fractional rate of protein synthesis in tissues was measured by a 6 hours continuous infusion technique with L-[U-14C]-tyrosine and L-[U-14C]-leucine. Among the parameters estimated only the apparent biological half lives of proteins in liver and intestinal tissues were influenced by chymostatin. However, the prolonged half lives seemed to be rather an effect of an increased reutilisation of amino acids resulting from the intracellular protein breakdown than a decreased rate of protein degradation. The in vivo effect of the proteinase inhibitor was by far inferior compared with the action in vitro. Factors like distribution, degradation and excretion of the inhibitor could be responsible for the moderate in vivo action of chymostatin. 相似文献

The experiment was carried out on 3 pigs of 34 kg body weight equipped with re-entrant cannulas both in the duodenum and terminal ileum. Furthermore, catheters were inserted into the external jugular vein and into the carotid artery. During a preliminary period digesta from both cannulas were collected and stored. This digesta was than reintroduced during a 12 hours period of intravenous infusion of 14C-leucine while outflowing digesta from the proximal parts of the cannulas were collected, stored and analyzed for leucine content, 14C-radioactivity and specific radioactivity of leucine. This paper reports the net secretion of 14C-activity and of 14C-leucine by the small intestine and the recovery of both in the content of the digestive tract at the end of the infusion. It was concluded that endogenous leucine enters the lumen of the small intestine through the intestinal wall mainly in a protein bound form. Free leucine is secreted, however, only in small amounts. Metabolites of leucine were also secreted into or formed in the lumen of the small intestine. A proportion of endogenous leucine was reabsorbed during the passage of digesta along the small intestine. 相似文献

In the present paper regression techniques were used for determing the true digestibility of amino acids from lysine-supplemented rations fed to laying hens as compared with unsupplemented rations of the same composition. 5 groups of 4 hens each were investigated receiving graded amounts of food and nutrients. The daily amounts of pellets fed per bird in group 1 to 5 were 120 gms, 100 gms, 80 gms, 60 gms and 40 gms. The quantity of lysine contained in 100 gms of the pellets was 664 mg in ration 1 and 554 mg in ration 2, the corresponding N values being 2.57 gm and 2.62 mg. The total amount of endogenic amino acids excreted per day was 128 mg per kg of body weight in birds receiving the lysine-supplemented ration and 132 mg per kg of body weight for the lysine-deficient ration. Data for the true digestibility of lysine and isoleucine were significantly higher in the case of the lysine-supplemented ration than with the lysine-deficient mixture. Lysine values were 86% and 75%, the corresponding lysine data in crude faecal proteins 4.8% and 7.1%. Generally speaking, the crude faecal protein of hens fed the lysine-deficient diet contained higher proportions of most of the essential and non-essential amino acids. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of an increased jugular supply of L‐Gln on post‐weaning growth, immune responses, intestinal morphology and autophagy of weaned calves. At 35 days of age, 24 Holstein calves (initial 50 ± 1.5 kg; 35 ± 2 day of age) were randomly allocated to four treatments, and each treatment included five male and one female calves. Holstein calves were assigned to treatments of (i) i.v. infusion of 2 l of 0.85% NaCl, Control group [C]; (ii) i.v. infusion of 8 g/day of L‐Gln mixed with 2 l of 0.85% NaCl solution [L]; (iii) i.v. infusion of 16 g/day of L‐Gln mixed with 2 l of 0.85% NaCl solution [M]; and (iv) i.v. infusion of 32 g/day of L‐Gln mixed with 2 l of 0.85% NaCl [H]; The infusion was 2 h/day for each of 14 consecutive days starting on day 1 after weaning. Feed and water were freely available to all calves. All calves were killed on the 14th day post‐weaning for measurements of autophagy of liver cell and intestinal morphology. Gln has no effect on dry matter intake (DMI) and average daily gain (ADG). Gln infusion increased quadratically the abundance of CD4+, monocyte and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+. The urea N, Gln and Glucose in plasma increased linearly with increasing Gln loads. Gln infusion increased quadratically villus height and crypt depth of intestine. The autophagy level of liver cell was improved with the Gln infusion dose increased. 相似文献

Male Wistar rats (initial body weight 90 g) were fed ad libitum a whole-egg diet containing 10,5% crude protein. The animals of the experimental group received in each case of 1 mg leupeptin per 100 g of body weight in 12 hrs-intervals by i. p.-injection (3 days of treatment). Control animals got a leupeptin free solution. In addition, lysine dihydrochloride-alpha-15N was applied during the first three days of experiment to all animals and the nitrogen balance was determined. Urine from the N-Balance collection was analysed for 3-methyl-histidine excretion in order to calculate the degradation rate of myofibrillar proteins. On the fourth day the fractional rate of protein synthesis in several organs was estimated using the continuous infusion technique with 14C-leucine and 14C-lysine. The apparent biological half-lives of tissue protein were determined by a triple labelling technique, with (14C)-guanidino-L-arginine, L-5-3H-arginine and 15N-Lysine. The short-term treatment 3 days) with leupeptin did not affect the weight gain, the apparent digestibility of nitrogen and the N-balance. The fractional rate of protein synthesis was highest in the small intestine followed by the large intestine, liver and skeletal muscle and no influence of leupeptin treatment was observed. Furthermore no differences in the degradation rates of myofibrillar proteins between treated and untreated animals were found. The 3-methyl-histidine excretion via urine was 1.44 mg . kg-1 day-1 in both groups corresponding to a fractional rate of degradation of myofibrillar proteins of 2,5% per day. Apparent half-lives of tissue proteins in the small intestine, large intestine and liver, respectively, were shortest when estimated from the decay curves for the 14C-label and longest from the curves for the 15N-label. Leupeptin treatment resulted in prolonged apparent half-lives of the proteins in the large intestine and of the slowly turning over proteins in the liver. However, this effect seems to be caused rather by an increased reutilization of labelled amino acids than by a decreased protein degradation. Before continuing this kind of work the rate of uptake of injected leupeptine into tissues has to be investigated. Studies dealing with the in vivo action of proteinase inhibitors on protein metabolism have to include estimations of N-balance, protein synthesis rate, intracellular degradation rate of proteins as well as amino acid reutilization. 相似文献

In the series of experiments with labelled urea three colostomized laying hybrids were butchered after a six-day application of 1% urea with 96.06 atom-% 15N excess (15N') in the ration and another 2 days with a supplement of 1% unlabelled urea. Out of the individual samples from crop, gizzard, small intestine, caecum and rectum, the content of the small intestine and the caecum showed the highest labelling with greater than 1 atom-% 15N'. The TCA soluble fraction of the content of the gizzard was more highly and that of the intestines less labelled than the total nitrogen. The tissue of the gizzard is distinctly less labelled than the "omasum system" and the small intestine. The atom-% 15N' of the oesophagus with crop and glandular stomach largely showed agreement in the individual hens with that of intestinal tissue and ranged between 0.71 and 0.89 atom-%. 2% of the 15N' supplemented with the urea could be recovered in the content and the tissue of the gastro-intestinal tract. 相似文献

In a 15N labelling experiment 12 colostomized laying hens received 15N labelled wheat with 14.37 atom-% 15N excess (15N') over 4 days. 3 hens each were butchered after 12 h, 36 h, 60 h and 108 h after the last 15N' application. The gastro-intestinal tract was divided into 3 parts (oesophagus with crop and gizzard as well as glandular stomach, small intestine, large intestine). These parts and the pancreas were hydrolysed with 6 N HCl and the individual basic as well as the sum of acid and neutral amino acids were determined in the hydrolysed fractions. In addition, the amino acids and peptides were determined in the TCA soluble N fraction. The atom-% 15N' was determined in the individual amino acid and peptide fractions. The labelling of the basic amino acids in the individual tract segments was lower than in the acid and neutral amino acids. In comparison to the peptides, a higher atom-% 15N' could be determined in the free amino acids. 相似文献

Male rats received in 8 groups of 10 animals each for a period of 7 days 7 synthetic diets and one semisynthetic diet on maintenance requirement level. A L-amino acid mixture corresponding to the pattern of egg protein without glutamic acid was the protein source of the synthetic diets. Glutamic acid was supplemented successively from 0 to 58 mol-% of the total amino acid content. The crude protein source of diet 8 was whole egg powder. On the 8th day of experiment 5 animals per group were labelled by intragastric infusion (i.g.) with 14C-U-glutamic acid. During the following 24 hours the excretion of CO2 and 14CO2 was measured. Throughout the experimental feeding body weight was relative constant, however, when the synthetic diets were fed it was necessary to increase the daily amount of energy from 460 to 480 kJ/kg0,67. The relative 14CO2-excretion within 24 hours was 68-75% of the dose. However, the main part of the amount of radioactivity excreted during 24 hours was found after 4 to 6 hours already. Exponential functions calculated from the data of cumulative 14CO2-excretion suggest the existence of a fast process of 14CO2-formation directly from 14C-glutamic acid, reaching a plateau within 2 hours and a slow process of oxidation of intermediates of glutamic acid metabolism, causing a continued 14CO2-formation even after 24 hours. The oxidation of 14C-glutamic acid to CO2 decreased 2 to 14 hours after i.g. labelling if the glutamic acid content of the diet increased. The same was found for the specific radioactivity of 14CO2. A storage of intermediates of glutamic acid before degradation was assumed. 相似文献

2 male sheep (weighing 45 kg and 44 kg) were fitted with a ruminal fistula and a jugular vein catheter and received isobutylidendi-urea for a 42-day period of adjustment. The diet contained 25% starch, 23.8% glucose, 29.0% cellulose, 10.0% straw, 1.7% sunflower seed oil, 4.3% isobutylidendi-urea, 5.6% minerals and vitamins. Each animal received 60 g of isobutylidendi-urea in daily amounts of 1.4 kg of the ration-4.4% of the total dietary N came from the straw. At the begin of the trial each sheep received 30 g of 14C15N isobutylidendi-urea (C1-siobutyl labelling) administered as a suspension. The animals were then placedin respiration cages. The peak of specific 14C activity in the expired air (including ruminal gas) was observed 2 hrs after the beginning of the trial. 18--30 hrs after the beginning of the trial the highest level of 15N incorporation into the TCE (trichloroacetic acid) soluble fraction of the ruminal fluid was noted resulting from the reflow of urea via the rumeno-hepatic circulatory system in the rumen. A high concentration of 15N was shown to be present, for prolonged period, in the TCE soluble fraction of the ruminal fluid (up to the 30 hr of experiment). The 15N concentration in the blood plasma (TCE soluble portion) was found to increase reaching a peak value 23 hrs after administration of the isotope. The highest level of 14C activity in this fraction appeared 1 hr after isotope administration. The 15N incorporation into the protein fraction of blood plasma reached a constant high level between the 29th and 47th hr of experiment. The highest 15N concentrations in urine were noted after 1 day. 3.5% of the administered dose of 14C activity and 23% of the supplied amount of N were excreted in the urine. 20% of the total amount of 15N excreted in the urine could be detected as 14C isobutyl residues. An excess of between 0.05 and 0.17 atom% of the isotopes were found in muscular tissue and in different organs of the sheep when these were slaughtered on the 7th day of experiment (liver: 0.17%, kidneys: 0.14%, muscle: 0.05%, heart: 0.08%). The results obtained in the present trial clearly indicate that ruminants are able to utilize nitrogen from isobutyldi-urea. 相似文献

48 male rats (body weight 80-100 g) were fed with 2 diets different in the glutamic acid content (diet I 2.42 and diet II 6.24% glutamic acid in the dry matter). The mixture of the other synthetic L-amino acids was adapted to the egg protein pattern corresponding 10% crude protein in the diet. Each diet was fed either on 73% or 98 to 104% of the energy maintenance requirement. After 7 days of experimental feeding 14C-U-L-glutamic acid was given to each group by intragastric infusion (i.g.), intraperitoneal (i.p.) or subcutaneous injection (s.c.), respectively, followed by a measurement of the CO2-and 14CO2-excretion during two subsequent periods of 3 hours. The CO2-excretion was lower in animals with restricted energy intake especially during the first 3 hour-period, which was started 2 hours after feed intake. The relative 14CO2-excretion (percent of the dose) was neither significantly influenced by the level of energy intake nor by the amount of dietary glutamic acid. The highest degradation rates of 14C-glutamic acid to 14CO2 were measured after i.g. application (more than 50%), followed by the i.p. injection (nearly 50%) and the lowest values were observed after s.c. injection (about 40%). These differences were only evident during the first CO2-absorption period. Furthermore the s.c. injection caused a lower specific radioactivity of CO2 compared with the data after i.g. and i.p. application. The results suggest the high metabolic activity of the intestinal tissue for glutamic acid. 相似文献

Effects of age and diet on the development of the pancreas and the synthesis and secretion of pancreatic enzymes in the young pig 总被引：17，自引：0，他引：17
Effects of age and diet composition on amylase, trypsin and chymotrypsin activities in the pancreas and intestinal contents, pancreas weights and body weights were determined from birth to 56 d. A total of 120 pigs, five to seven pigs/litter from 18 litters, were slaughtered at birth, 14, 27, 29, 31, 42 and 56 d. Litters were allotted to dietary treatments (corn-soy, A; corn-soy + 20% dried whey, B; corn-soy + 5% lard, C) and offered these diets as creep feed at 14 d. All pigs were weaned at 28 d, placed in elevated nursery pens and fed their respective diets. Total activities of amylase, trypsin and chymotrypsin in the pancreas and small intestine increased (P less than .05) with age. Both trypsin and amylase activities, measured per kilogram body weight or gram pancreas weight, were low at 29 d in the intestine and increased to 56 d. Pigs on diet B had the highest level of trypsin and chymotrypsin in the intestinal contents (P less than .05). Trypsin activity in the pancreas (units/kg body weight) was lowest (P less than .05) for pigs on diet B and highest (P less than .05) for those on diet C (units/g pancreas and units/kg body weight). Amylase activity (units/kg body weight) was lower (P less than .05) in the pancreas for pigs on diet B than for those on diets A and C. Pigs on diet A had lower (P less than .01) intestinal amylase activities than those on diets B and C. Enzyme activities in the intestinal contents and pancreas were low following weaning. In the pancreas, activities decreased at 31 d.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The levels of glutamate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)], (GDH), aspartate trans‐aminase (AspT) and alanine transaminase (AlT) were measured in livers from chicks fed on a semi‐synthetic diet containing crystalline essential amino acids as the sole nitrogen source (diet A). The effects of a supplement of 12.0% glutamic acid (diet H) or 11.07% diammonium citrate (DAC) (diet B) or 12.0% glutamic acid plus 1.0% proline with an additional 0.6% glycine (diet C) on these enzymes were studied and the results compared with the levels found for control chicks given a typical diet based on cereal protein (diet J). The abilities of livers from chicks given diets A, B and C to synthesise [14C] glutamic acid from [14C]2‐oxoglutaric acid and diammonium citrate (DAC) were assessed.
The levels of GDH, AspT and AlT found in the livers of chicks given the control diet were 54.1, 966 and 123.7 units/mg protein respectively. Non‐essential nitrogen added as glutamic acid or as DAC did not cause induction of the enzymes studied above control levels. Glutamic acid (diets H and B) caused a depression of GDH levels (37.4 and 38.9 units/mg protein respectively) but had no effect on AspT and AlT compared with the controls, whereas DAC caused a decrease in AlT (43.9 units/mg protein) but had no effect on AspT and GDH; diet A depressed AlT and AspT levels (64.4 and 735 units/mg protein respectively).
The livers of chicks given diets A, C and B varied in their ability to synthesise glutamic acid, 39.3%, 31.9% and 24.0% respectively of the radioactivity being recovered as glutamic acid. 相似文献

Three pigs of 34 kg live weight were fitted with a re-entrant cannula in the duodenum, and with two catheters placed in the jugular vein and carotid artery. They were fed 1.2 kg/d of wheat-dried-skimmed milk diet. Digesta from the proximal duodenal cannula were collected for 12 h on 2 consecutive days; 50% were reintroduced into the respective distal cannula and 50% were stored at -20 degrees C. Three days later 14C-leucine was infused into the jugular vein for 12 h, starting with the morning meal. During this period the digesta from the proximal cannula were collected and stored for analysis while the digesta collected previously were reintroduced into the distal cannula. Blood samples were taken from the carotid artery. The total flow of duodenal digesta in 12 h was 5760 +/- 530 g. On average 70 percent of the radioactivity in digesta was associated with the TCA-precipitable fraction. During hours 0-3 and 11-12 of infusion 60-70% and 96-98% of the radioactivity in the TCA precipitable fractions was in leucine. In the TCA soluble fraction only 30-40 per cent of the radioactivity was associated with leucine. At the plateau 2.1 and 3.3% of infused 14C-leucine and of radioactivity were recovered in the duodenal digesta. The calculated amount of endogenous protein passing the duodenum was 20.4 g/d/pig. The results are discussed in relation to previous studies on protein synthesis and secretion in which 14C- and 15N-amino acids were used. 相似文献

12 pigs were divided into 4 groups. All animals received an identical basal diet deficient in lysine and additional isonitrogenous amounts of 66.4 mmol N in the form of 15N-lysine and 15N-urea resp. orally or caecally. Caecal application was carried out as permanent infusion through caecal cannulae. N- and 15N-balances were ascertained of all animals and the remain of the labelled nitrogen was determined. From the comparison of the N-balances the conclusion can be drawn that though caecally applied N-compounds, whether they were infused as amino acids or as non-amino acid-N, disappear in the large intestine, i.e. are digested, do not, however, improve the N-balance but are excreted as additional urine-N. Subsequent to oral application, lysine or urea are almost quantitatively absorbed in the small intestine. Absorbed lysine is used in the synthesis of body protein, absorbed urea, however, is almost completely excreted in urine (83% of the 15N-amount absorbed). 15N-excretion in faeces after the oral application of 15N-lysine and 15N-urea resp. was less than 1% of the 15N-amount applied, after caecal infusion, however, it was approximately 6%, the biggest part of which (70-77%) was incorporated in bacteria protein. After caecal infusion the main quota of the infused 15N-amount (greater than or equal to 80%) was excreted in urine, most of it in the form of urea. After the oral application of 15N-lysine this could be detected in both the TCA-soluble fraction of the serum and the serum protein. After caecal infusion 15N in the TCA-soluble fraction of the serum could mainly be found as NPN, absorption and incorporation of intact 15N-lysine were considerably lower. An calculation showed that the maximum of the absorbed 15N-amount in the form of lysine was 3% and that of the infused amount was 1.8%. It can generally be doubted that the absorption of lysine in the large intestine is significant in the protein metabolism. The absorption of utilizable lysine is practically completed at the end of the ileum. In the large intestine mainly the ammonia by the catabolic activity of the intestinal flora is absorbed and subsequently excreted through the intestines. 相似文献

The effect diet composition on digesta passage over three sections of the gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) was studied in growing pigs. A control diet (C diet) and three diets differing in the contents of non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) and water holding capacity (WHC) were fed.
Results showed a mean transit time (MTT) over the whole GIT over all diets of 75 h. NSP significantly (P < 0.05) decreased MTT over the total GIT and through the large intestine. In contrast, NSP tended to increase the MTT of the stomach contents (P < 0.10). The effects of WHC were limited to tendencies for a decrease of the MTT in the large intestine (P < 0.10) and an increase of the MTT in the small intestine (P < 0.10). 相似文献
