The effects of dietary proteins given as whole proteins (WP) or as a peptide hydrolysate (PH) on growth, nitrogen retention, and small bowel adaptation were assessed using two groups of male Wistar rats. Measurements were made 18, 42, and 66 h after acute inflammation induced by subcutaneous injections of 0.125 mL turpentine and in two control groups (n = 12). The two diets had the same caloric, nitrogen, vitamin, and mineral content. The WP diet resulted in better weight gain, nitrogen retention, and small intestinal adaptation by control rats than did the PH diet. Loss of body weight after 18 h of acute inflammation was significantly lower and nitrogen retention significantly higher in animals on the WP diet than in those on the PH diet. Small intestine morphology was maintained with the WP diet, whereas villus height was significantly lower after 66 h, and there were fewer mitoses per crypt in the rats on the PH diet. Glucoamylase activity at all times, and N-aminopeptidase activity at 18 h, were significantly higher in rats on the WP diet. The putrescine (at 42 h) and spermidine (at 18 h) concentrations in the mucosa were higher in the rats on the WP diet. These data suggest that synthetic diets should be tested for their nutritional value during acute inflammation before they are used in human nutrition. 相似文献

We assessed the growth rate and changes in plasma albumin, total protein and alpha 2-macroglobulin concentrations (a major acute phase protein in rats) before and after a subcutaneous injection of turpentine (0.5 mg/kg body wt) in groups of rats receiving one of a series of protein-deficient diets (protein concentrations of 0.5, 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 or 6.0 g/100 g) or a diet containing an adequate level of protein (20 g/100 g) for maximal growth. Increasing protein deficiency in the different groups of animals reduced the basal albumin and total protein concentrations and attenuated the total protein and alpha 2-macroglobulin responses to turpentine. Increasing protein deficiency delayed the time taken for alpha 2-macroglobulin to reach peak concentrations post-injection and its return to basal concentrations. The turpentine-induced hypoalbuminemia was similar in all groups of animals (approximately 10 g/L depression) but restoration to values that were present before turpentine injection was increasingly delayed with increasing protein deficiency. The magnitude of the acute phase response (peak alpha 2-macroglobulin concentration) was found to be directly related to growth rate (r = 0.70, P less than 0.001). We concluded that protein deficiency can alter the pattern and magnitude of the acute phase responses in circulating protein concentrations to an extent that is dependent on the severity of protein deficiency. 相似文献

To examine how fat might influence the metabolic effects of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), human recombinant TNF alpha was given intravenously to rats that had been fed for 12 weeks on diets containing (g/kg) 200 maize oil or 190 coconut oil + 10 maize oil. Rectal temperature and tissue composition measurements were made 8 and 24 h after injection. Ambient temperatures of 20 degrees and 25 degrees were employed to accentuate rectal temperature changes. Doses of 30 and 300 micrograms TNF alpha/kg body-weight were given, and brought about depression of serum zinc and albumin and elevation of copper. Muscle protein content was decreased and liver protein and Zn content enhanced by TNF alpha. Serum Zn and liver Zn content were negatively correlated 8 h after injections. Hypothermia developed within 1 h of injection. All responses except the rise in serum Cu and gain in liver Zn were more intense at the higher than at the lower dose of TNF alpha. Hypothermia was exacerbated by an environmental temperature of 20 degrees. The coconut-oil diet blunted the hypothermia and likewise the changes in serum albumin and Cu content 8 h after injections and in muscle and liver protein after 24 h. Changes in eicosanoid metabolism may be involved in the modulatory effects of the coconut-oil-enriched diet. 相似文献

The changes in protein metabolism of severe childhood malnutrition are generally perceived as a metabolic adaptation to chronic protein undernutrition. However, severe malnutrition is invariably accompanied by infections which also have profound effects on protein metabolism. This study aimed to distinguish the effect of protein undernutrition from that of an inflammatory stimulus on muscle and plasma protein synthesis rates. Two groups of five piglets consumed diets containing either 23% or 3% protein for 4 wk. They then were infused intravenously with 2H3-leucine before and 48 h after subcutaneous injections of turpentine to measure the fractional synthesis rates (FSR) of muscle protein and both the FSR and the absolute synthesis rates (ASR) of albumin and fibrinogen. Prior to turpentine injection, compared to control piglets, protein-deficient piglets had significantly lower muscle FSR and plasma concentrations of both albumin and fibrinogen, although only albumin had lower FSR and ASR. Turpentine injection decreased muscle FSR but increased the FSR, ASR and plasma concentrations of both albumin and fibrinogen in control piglets. In protein-deficient piglets, the inflammatory stress caused a further decrease in muscle protein FSR and in plasma albumin concentration despite marked increases in albumin FSR and ASR. Fibrinogen FSR, ASR and plasma concentration were increased. We conclude that protein undernutrition and inflammation elicit the same kinetic response in muscle protein but different kinetic responses in plasma proteins. Furthermore, whereas protein deficiency reduces the plasma albumin pool via a reduction in albumin synthesis, inflammation reduces it through a stimulation of catabolism and/or loss from the intravascular space. 相似文献

The effect of restricting either protein intake alone or all dietary constituents on the acute-phase protein response was assessed during a 3-wk period after a standardized "injury" (i.e., subcutaneous injection of turpentine 0.5 ml/kg body wt) to rats. Sequential measurements were made of the circulating concentrations of alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2-M), albumin, and total protein. Results were compared with those obtained from normally fed rats that were also injected with turpentine and with saline-injected rats (controls) receiving each dietary regimen. Turpentine-treated rats showed a decrease in albumin concentration by approximately 10 g/L within 2-4 days. In the protein-deficient rats, recovery to preinjection levels had not occurred by 3 wk, but in the other groups, it was complete by 7-9 days. The protein-deficient animals also showed an attenuated response in alpha 2-M and total protein and delay in their recovery toward normal. Maximal alpha 2-M and total-protein responses in this group of animals was only 44 and 39%, respectively, of those found in the control group. We conclude that protein deficiency attenuates the magnitude and alters the time profile of the positive (alpha 2-M and total protein) and negative (albumin) acute-phase protein responses to injury, independent of the severity of the stimulus. 相似文献

Dietary whey proteins and their peptides or amino acids: effects on the jejunal mucosa of starved rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M G Poullain J P Cezard C Marche L Roger F Mendy J P Broyart 《The American journal of clinical nutrition》1989,49(1):71-76
The effects of starvation (72 h) and refeeding with three liquid diets, differing only in the molecular form of the nitrogen source (whole whey proteins, WP; tryptic whey protein hydrolysate, WPH; and amino acid mixture, AAM), on the jejunal mucosal morphology and brush border enzyme activities (sucrase, S; maltase, M; and neutral aminopeptidase, NA) of male Wistar rats were studied. All three diets produced repair of the fasting-induced mucosal atrophy; the WP diet gave the most rapid growth with maximum villus height (VH) and protein content after 48 h (p less than 0.01). AAM gave the fastest and greatest stimulation of sucrase and maltase activities (p less than 0.01). There were no significant differences in NA activity. In control rats the WPH and AAM diets produced significantly greater villus height and disaccharidase activities than did the WP diet. Jejunal morphology and disaccharidase activities can be modified by the molecular form of alimentary protein and nutritional status interferes with these modifications. 相似文献

Effect of whey proteins, their oligopeptide hydrolysates and free amino acid mixtures on growth and nitrogen retention in fed and starved rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of alimentary whey proteins given, as whole proteins (WP), controlled trypsin and chymotrypsin hydrolysate oligopeptides (WPH), or a free amino acid mixture (AAM), on growth, nitrogen retention, and steatorrhea were assessed in 24 Wistar rats (250 to 300 g) after 72 hr of starvation and 24 to 96 hr of realimentation and in 24 controls. The three diets had the same caloric, nitrogen, vitamin, and mineral contents. Rats had free access to the liquid diets. Only rats which ate the whole diet (90 cal) were included in the study. No differences in steatorrhea and fecal nitrogen were observed. The absorption rate was over 95% on the three diets. In contrast, weight gain was statistically better on WPH (+9% after 96 hr of realimentation) than on WP (+5%) or AAM (+2%). This was associated with a statistically higher nitrogen retention at all time periods studied, which was a result of a significant lower nitrogen urinary excretion. Similar results were obtained in controls. This better growth was a result of a better protein synthesis and lower ureagenesis. 相似文献

The time-course of changes in the levels of albumin, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), alpha(1)-protease inhibitor (alpha(1)-antitrypsin), alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein, fetuin, haptoglobin, transferrin, IgG and the major acute-phase protein (Pig-MAP) in the blood sera of pigs during the first days and weeks of life was investigated by quantitative radial immunodiffusion. The serum of newborn pigs before suckling was characterised by a very low concentration of total proteins (approximately 25 mg mL(-1)), low levels of albumin and transferrin and the lack of immunoglobulins. In contrast, alpha(1)-acid glycoprotein and fetuin are present at high levels (approximately 12 and 5 mg mL(-1) respectively). The results of the present study show that the piglets undergo a very rapid metabolic maturation with regard to serum proteins, evolving from a characteristic 'fetal' pattern to an 'adult' one. We have paid special attention to the evolution of haptoglobin and Pig-MAP, which are two important acute-phase proteins in pigs. The evolution of serum levels of these proteins suggests that piglets must overcome a moderate acute-phase situation during the first week of life. 相似文献

The effects of three liquid diets, differing only in the molecular form of the nitrogen source (whole whey proteins, WP; trypsic whey protein hydrolysate, WPH, and amino-acid mixture, AAM) were studied on the mucosa morphology and brush border hydrolase (BBH) activities (disaccharidases, peptidases) of the ileum of normally fed male Wistar rats (controls) and during refeeding of rats starved for 72h. All three diets produced repair of the fasting induced mucosal atrophy; the AAM diet gave the most rapid response and highest villus height (p < 0.01). This was correlated with an increase in crypt mitoses (p < 0.01). Similar results were obtained in controls with AAM. The sucrase (S) and acid amino peptidase (AAP) specific activities of controls were higher (p < 0.01) on the WPH diet; neutral amino peptidase (NAP) was unaffected. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DDP) was lowest on AAM while glucoamylase (G) highest on WP. Fasting increased S and DDP activity, and produced no change in the other BBH. Large variations in BBH occurred during refeeding except for NAP which remained stable. Control values were restored at 96h, except for AAP. The results show that BBH and mucosa morphology of the ileum in the rat can be modified by the molecular form of the nitrogen source and that the nutritional status interferes with this adaptation. These data could have implications for the therapy of small bowel disease. 相似文献

Sarcopenia is defined as age-related loss of muscle mass and strength. Energy restriction (ER) delays fibre loss by limiting the accumulated deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species on muscle. However, insufficient protein intake during ER might affect muscle mass and function. We hypothesised that ingestion of fast-digested proteins such as whey protein (WP) improves muscle protein synthesis and muscle strength in aged ER rats. The effect of WP or casein (CAS, slow protein) on muscle mass, protein synthesis and strength was evaluated in 21-month-old rats fed for 5 months either ad libitum (AL) or a 40 % protein and energy-restricted (PER) or 40 % AL-isonitrogenous ER diet. The nitrogen balance was reduced in PER-CAS rats only ( - 48 % v. AL-CAS). WP stimulated muscle protein synthesis rates compared with CAS in all groups (+21,+37 and +34 % in AL, PER and ER conditions, respectively). Muscle strength was higher in ER rats than in AL rats (+23 and +12 % for WP or CAS, respectively). Muscle performance tended to be greater in ER rats fed WP than in ER-CAS rats (P < 0·09). In conclusion, we observed that long-term ER combined with maintained protein intake had a beneficial impact on muscle protein synthesis rate and function during ageing. 相似文献

The beneficial effect of bovine whey protein (WP) on bone metabolism has been shown in adult human subjects and ovariectomised rats. However, its effect on bone formation in earlier life, particularly during periods of bone mineral accrual, has not been investigated. Twenty-one male rats (4 weeks old, Wistar strain) were randomised by weight into three groups of seven rats each and fed ad libitum on a semi-purified low-Ca diet (3.0 g Ca/kg diet) containing 0 (control), 10 (diet WP1) or 20 (diet WP2) g bovine WP/kg for 47 d. On day 34 of the dietary intervention, all rats had two gelatine capsules containing demineralised bone powder implanted subcutaneously in the thorax region (a well-established in vivo model of ectopic bone formation). At 14 d after implantation, alkaline phosphatase activity (reflective of bone formation) in the bone implants from animals fed WP1 and -2 diets was almost 2-fold (P<0.01) that of control animals. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I mRNA levels were about 3-fold (P<0.05) higher in implants from animals fed the WP diets compared with those from control animals. Serum- and urine-based biomarkers of bone metabolism and bone mineral composition in intact femora were unaffected by WP supplementation. In conclusion, the present findings suggest that bovine WP can enhance the rate of ectopic bone formation in young growing rats fed a Ca-restricted diet. This effect may be mediated by an increased synthesis of IGF-I in growing bone. The effect of WP on bone formation warrants further investigation. 相似文献

The present study compared leucine kinetics and acute-phase-protein concentrations in three groups of marasmic, acutely infected Malawian children fed one of three isoenergetic diets. These were: an enhanced-protein-quality diet (egg-white+tryptophan, providing 1.2 g protein/kg per d; n 14); an increased-protein-content diet (egg-white+tryptophan, providing 1.8 g protein/kg per d; n 14); a standard-protein diet (1.2 g milk protein/kg per d; n 25). The hypotheses tested were that children receiving a diet with more protein would have greater rates of non-oxidative leucine disposal and that children receiving an isonitrogenous diet with a higher protein quality would have lower rates of leucine oxidation. The children were studied after 24 h of therapy using standard [(13)C]leucine stable-isotope tracer techniques. The children receiving the higher-protein-content diet had greater leucine kinetic rates than those receiving the standard-protein-content diet; non-oxidative leucine disposal was 170 (sd 52) v. 122 (sd 30) mumol leucine/kg per h (P<0.01). Leucine oxidation was less in the children receiving the enhanced-protein-quality diet than in those receiving the standard-protein-quality diet; 34 (sd 12) v. 45 (sd 13) mumol leucine/kg per h (P<0.05). The children receiving the high-protein-content diet increased their serum concentration for five of six acute-phase proteins 24 h after starting therapy, while those receiving the standard-protein-content diet did not. These data suggest that there was greater whole-body protein synthesis, and a more vigorous acute-phase response associated with the higher-protein-content diet. The clinical benefits associated with a higher protein intake in marasmic, acutely infected children need further study. 相似文献

The present study evaluated the effect of dietary methionine on breast-meat accretion and protein expression in skeletal muscle of broiler chickens in vivo. All broilers received a common pre-test diet up to 21 d of age, and were subsequently fed either a methionine-deficient (MD) or -adequate (MA) diet (3.1 v. 4.5 g/kg diet) from age 21 to 42 d. Dietary cystine levels were 3.7 v. 3.6 g/kg diet for the MD and MA diet, respectively. Detrimental effects on carcass yield (P=0.004), abdominal fat percentage (P=0.001), and breast-meat weight (P=0.001), yield (P=0.001), and uniformity (P=0.002) were observed and validated in birds fed MD diets. Via tandem MS, a total of 190 individual proteins were identified from pectoralis major (PM) muscle tissue. From the former composite, peptides from three proteins were observed to be present exclusively in breast muscle from those chickens fed the MD diet (pyruvate kinase, myosin alkali light chain-1, ribosomal-protein-L-29). No proteins were observed to be uniquely expressed in chickens fed MA diets. Research is warranted to further explore the possibility of the proteins pyruate kinase, myosin alkali light chain-1, or ribosomal protein L-29, as potential biological indicators of differences in protein expression of PM of chickens in response to a dietary methionine deficiency. 相似文献

Dietary protein concentration regulates the mRNA expression of chicken hepatic malic enzyme 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chicken hepatic malic enzyme activity varies with dietary protein content. The mechanisms responsible for this alteration in activity are unclear. In a series of four experiments, broiler chicks were allowed free access for 1.5, 3, 6 or 24 h to a low (13 g/100 g diet), basal (22 g/100 g diet) or high (40 g/100 g diet) protein diet. The diets were isocaloric and had equal concentrations of dietary fat. Hepatic malic enzyme mRNA expression and enzyme activity as well as total liver lipid concentration were examined for each experimental duration. There were no differences in the expression of the mRNA for malic enzyme at 1.5 h, but at 3, 6 and 24 h, malic enzyme mRNA expression was significantly (P < 0.05) reduced in chicks fed the high protein diet and significantly enhanced in chicks fed the low protein diet compared with chicks fed the basal diet. Hepatic malic enzyme activities and total lipid concentration were not different among the chicks fed the different diets at 1.5 and 3 h. At 6 and 24 h, malic enzyme activity and total liver lipid concentration were both significantly greater in birds fed the low protein diet compared with levels in the birds fed the other two diets. In birds fed the high protein diet, malic enzyme activity and total liver lipid concentration were significantly reduced at 24 h compared with birds fed the basal diet. In a final experiment, the observed differences in malic enzyme mRNA expression at 6 h were confirmed when chicks were given access to isocaloric diets with the same protein levels as the initial 4 experiments, but with the dietary concentration of carbohydrate held constant. The results suggest that previously observed alterations in the activity of malic enzyme, which were correlated with dietary protein intake, are due to rapid changes in the mRNA expression of this enzyme. 相似文献

The effects of diet at the molecular level were investigated by feeding rats control or protein-deficient diets. Each of the control and the protein-deficient groups was further divided into three subgroups according to the level of energy intake. Liver DNA, RNA and total cellular protein concentrations and serum albumin and albumin mRNA concentrations were determined. Protein deficiency caused a marked inhibition of liver growth but the size of most cells remained normal. The low protein diet caused concurrent decreases in the levels of serum albumin and serum mRNA. However, this effect was observed only with the combination of a low protein diet and normal energy intake. The low protein-low energy diet failed to induce the low serum albumin level. Our findings suggest that the altered balance between at least two factors of protein and energy intake serves as a trigger for several metabolic changes which ultimately regulate specific genes. 相似文献

1. Digesta were collected from eleven preruminant calves fitted with re-entrant (four calves in Expt 1 and three in Expt 2) or single cannulas (four calves in Expt 1) in the terminal ileum. Collection periods lasted 24 h (Expt 1) or 96 h (Expt 2). 2. Two milk-substitutes (fish and soya bean) and a control diet were given to the calves. In the control diet, protein was entirely provided by skim-milk powder. In the other two diets, protein was provided mainly by a partially hydrolysed white-fish protein concentrate or a soya-bean protein concentrate prepared by extracting soya-bean meal with hot aqueous ethanol. 3. In Expt 1, flow rates of fresh matter, dry matter, nitrogen and ash exhibited two maxima between 6 and 8 h after the morning meal and between 4 and 6 h (control and soya-bean diets) or 6 and 8 h (fish diet) after the evening meal. Minimum pH values were observed at times of maximum flow rate. Variations observed in the flow rates and pH values were larger with fish and especially soya-bean diets than with the control diet. 4. The apparent digestibility of the three diets in the terminal ileum was significantly higher in Expt 2 than in Expt 1: for N, the values were 0.92, 0.83 and 0.75 (Expt 1), and 0.94, 0.87 and 0.88 (Expt 2) with the control, fish and soya-bean diets respectively. 5. The amount of N apparently absorbed in the terminal ileum represented 90-96% of the amount that disappeared from the whole digestive tract in Expt 1 and 95-99% in Expt 2. 6. In Expt 1 the amino acid (AA) composition of digesta changed little with the flow rate when the calves were given the control diet (from 158 to 179 g glutamic acid/kg AA). With the fish and soya-bean diets the AA composition was similar to that observed with the control diet when the flow rate was minimum, but differences became apparent as the flow rate increased (281 and 161 g glutamic acid/kg AA for the soya-bean and control diets respectively with maximum flow rate). In Expt 2, the mean compositions of the digesta were very similar to the means obtained in Expt 1. 7. Different comparisons with dietary, endogenous and bacterial proteins indicated that for the three diets a common mixture containing approximately 65% endogenous and 35% bacterial proteins reached the terminal ileum.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Six groups of five female rats each aged 6 weeks at start were fed different diets for a period of 15 days. The protein sources of diets used were: a) 10% casein: b) wheat: c) Bengalgram: d) wheat + lysine: and e) Bengalgram + methionine + cystine + tryptophan, all containing 1.6 g nitrogen/100 g, and f) 20% casein (3.2 g nitrogen/100 g diet). The group of five rats fed a 10% casein diet served as control. It was observed that total brain RNA, protein and free alpha amino nitrogen content and protein/DNA ratio were significantly decreased on wheat and Bengalgram diets as compared to the control. The specific activities of glutamine synthetase, glutaminase I, glutaminase II and glutamate decarboxylase and concentrations of aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glutamine and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain were also decreased on wheat and Bengalgram diets. The fortification of wheat with lysine and of Bengalgram with methionine, cystine and tryptophan did not alter brain weight and DNA content. While brain RNA, protein free alpha amino nitrogen (F alpha AN) and activities of enzymes of glutamic acid metabolism and related amino acid levels were restored, the activity of enzyme glutamine transferase and alanine concentration remained unaltered on various diets fed. The observations on 20% casein diet showed that levels were similar to those observed on 10% casein diet. 相似文献

Recent studies have shown that cytokines and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 are up-regulated in the brain of human epilepsy patients and animal models of epilepsy. We investigated the effect of inflammatory responses induced by intramuscular injection of turpentine on the epileptic phenomenon in genetically epileptic El mice. As parameters of epileptic seizure, seizure threshold (number of toss-ups to induce convulsion), duration of actual convulsion and duration of post actual convulsive period (period from the offset of convulsion to full recovery) were evaluated. The post actual convulsive period was prolonged without any change of seizure threshold or duration of actual convulsion 24 h after turpentine injection. Although pretreatment with indomethacin for one week did not change the seizure parameters, indomethacin suppressed the prolongation of the post actual convulsive period induced by turpentine. The mRNA expression of IL-1beta, IL-6 and COX-2 in the cerebral cortex was detected by RT-PCR. There was no difference in the mRNA expression in the cerebral cortex before and 24 h after seizure. The mRNA levels of IL-1beta, IL-6 and COX-2 in the cerebral cortex were up-regulated 24 h after turpentine injection. On the other hand, the up-regulated mRNA levels of IL-1beta, IL-6 and COX-2 in the cerebral cortex after turpentine treatment were not suppressed by indomethacin. These results suggest that prostaglandins induced with COX-2 in the cerebral cortex seem to play an important role in the maintenance of the post convulsive period, but not in induction and maintenance of the actual convulsive state. 相似文献

1. The flow of digesta through the duodenum and the concurrent secretion of the pancreas were studied in four Friesian calves given four milk-substitute diets. The diets were: reconstituted, "mildly" pre-heated, spray-dried skim-milk powder with (SKF) or without (SK) margarine fat or with 5o percent of the skim-milk powder in diet SKF replaced by soya-bean flour (ASKF) or fish-protein concentrate (BSKF), together with dried whey. The diets were given ad lib. twice daily from 13 to 37 d of age, each diet being given for 6 consecutive days. Collections of duodenal digesta and pancreatic secretions, from cannulas, were made for 12 h after feeding the 6th and 12th meals ("experimental" meals) for each diet. 2. The diets fed as "experimental" meals contained polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a fluid (whey) marker and goat's milk containing (3H)lysine as a marker for total protein; beta-carotene was added as a lipid marker to the three diets containing margarine fat. 3. Over the 12 h postprandial period, the patterns of duodenal digesta flow and secretion of pancreatic fluid did not differ markedly between the four diets. The abomasal outflow of both nitrogen and lipid in a 12 h postprandial period was related to their intakes from the "penultimate" (5th and 11th) meals for diets SKF and SK BUT TO THEIR INTAKES AT THE "EXPERIMENTAL MEALS" FOR DIETS ASKF and BSKF. Secretion of pancreatic enzyme activity was highest during the 1st hour after feeding but the main outflow from the abomasum of total N and lipid occurred 5-10 h after feeding. 4. The time required for all the whey marker (PEG) to pass through the duodenum was similar for diets SKF and SK, but only 53 and 42 percent respectively of the ingested protein marker passed through the duodenum in the 12 h after feeding. More acid appeared to be secreted by the abomasum when diet SK was given; also less undigested protein passed out of the abomasum after giving this diet. It is concluded that the physical absence of fat globules in the abomasal clot increases the degree of proteolysis. 5. The secretions of pancreatic fluid and pancreatic enzyme activity were all markedly lower for diet SK than for diet SKF. 6. With diets containing non-milk proteins (ASKF and BSKF), abomasal proteolysis was less efficient and the ingested protein passed out of the abomasum more rapidly than for diet SKF. There was no difference in the rate of abomasal outflow of the whey fluids between diets SKF, ASKF and BSKF. 7. In comparison with diet SKF, diets ASKF and BSKF tended to induce less pancreatic enzyme secretion over a 12 h postprandial period, with the exception of lipase. 8. There appeared to be no direct relationship between the quantities of any of the pancreatic enzymes secreted during a postprandial period and either the concurrent flow of duodenal digesta or the total quantities of dietary constituents passing through the duodenum. 相似文献
