    Notes: Summary Postoperative alterations in amino acid exchange across the intestinal tract and in the capacity for protein absorption were investigated in a chronic canine model. Changes in postoperative splanchnic amino acid exchange consisted of a temporary decrease of total splanchnic amino acid release, including a significant reduction in alanine production, and an increase in glutamine consumption. Contrary to results under stable metabolic conditions, branched chain amino acids were also taken up by the intestine in the early postoperative period. The changes in postoperative amino acid exchange were not, however, reflected by a corresponding alteration in protein transport capacity. The absorptive capacity for a protein hydrolysate remained stable during the early postoperative period.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ein neues chronisches Hundemodell zur Resorptionsmessung am wachen Tier wird beschrieben. Ein portalvenöser sowie ein arterieller Katheter, eine Katheterjejunostomie und ein portalvenöser elektromagnetischer Strömungsaufnehmer werden implantiert. Während intrajejunaler Infusion kann damit die Resorption beliebiger Substrate beim nicht sedierten Tier als das Produkt von portoarterieller Konzentrationsdifferenz und portalvenösem Blutfluß bestimmt werden. Dieses Modell wurde bei fünf Tieren validisiert: 1. Katheter und Strömungsaufnehmer wurden derart modifiziert, daß sie über mehrere Monate funktionsfähig bleiben. 2. Die Empfindlichkeit der Resorptionsmessung wurde nach intrajejunaler Applikation des Dipeptides l-Glycin-l-Tyrosin untersucht. Bei Infusion von 4 mmol/h (20 mM Lösung, 200 ml/h) konnte eine portoarterielle Konzentrationsdifferenz und damit Resorption gemessen werden. 3. Die Infusion einer nährstoffdefinierten Diät führte zu einem raschen Anstieg des portalvenösen Blutflusses, während weder Kochsalz noch die genannte Peptidlösung einen entsprechenden Effekt hatten. 4. Nach sechswöchiger Implantation eines Strömungsaufnehmers wurde ein zweiter Aufnehmer leberfern des ersten in einem zuvor unberührten Abschnitt der Portalvene implantiert. Trotz histologisch eindeutiger narbiger Verdickung der Gefäß-wand unter dem chronischen Implantat gaben beide Aufnehmer gleiche Strömungssignale. Die beschriebene Methode gestattet daher erstmals quantitative Resorptionsmessungen durch Bestimmung von portalvenösen Erscheinensraten enteral infundierter Substrate.
    Notes: Summary Research in absorption physiology requires animal models which closely resemble the in vivo situation. The description of a new canine model satisfying these requirements is the objective of this report. Dogs were instrumented with indwelling portal vein and carotid artery catheters, a catheter jejunostomy and an electromagnetic flow measuring probe around the portal vein enabling continuous flow recordings. Following intrajejunal infusion of nutritive substrates in the conscious animal, absorption was measured as the product of porto-arterial substrate difference and portal venous flow. The model was validated in five mongrel dogs: (1) Catheters and flow measuring device function over several months. (2) The sensitivity of the method was evaluated following intrajejunal infusion of 1-glycine-l-tyrosine and its constituent amino acids. A significant portoarterial concentration difference of both amino acids enabling quantitative measurement of absorption resulted when the peptide was infused at 4 mmoles/hour (20 mM solution, 200 ml/h). (3) Infusion of complete nutritive formulas caused a significant increase in portal venous flow whereas neither saline nor the amino acids or the peptides investigated had a comparable effect. (4) A validation experiment by implantation of a second flow probe distal to the chronically implanted device provided evidence that granulomatous tissue forming around the probe does not alter the accuracy of the flow recording. In summary, this method permits for the first time quantitative measurement of absorption by appearance rates in portal venous blood instead of by disappearance from the intestinal lumen.
