Proteomic analysis of plasma from rats following total parenteral nutrition‐induced liver injury

Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is provided as the primary nitrogen source to manage patients with intestinal failure who were not able to sustain themselves on enteral feeds. The most common complication of long‐term TPN use is hepatitis. A proteomic approach was used to identify proteins that are differentially expressed in the plasma of rats following TPN‐related acute liver injury. Six male rats were randomly assigned to either the saline infusion control group or the TPN infusion group. Our results demonstrate that TPN infusion in rats resulted in hepatic dysfunction and hepatocyte apoptosis. Five proteins that were differentially expressed between TPN infusion and normal rats were determined and validated in vivo. Fascinatingly, the proteomic differential displays, downregulated proteins included peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2), alpha‐1‐antiproteinase (A1AT), and fibrinogen gamma chain (FIBG), which were involved in oxidative stress, inflammatory respondence and cells apoptosis. After TPN infusion, two protein spots showed increased expression, namely, the glucagon receptor (GLR) protein and apolipoprotein A‐1 (APOA1), which may mediate the effects of TPN administration on glycogen and lipid metabolism. In this study, proteomic analysis suggested TPN‐related acute liver injury could be involved in limiting cellular protection mechanisms against oxidative stress‐induced apoptosis. On the basis of the results, we also give molecular evidences replying TPN‐related hepatitis.     

早期肠内营养对胃癌根治术患者术后恢复和免疫功能的影响

目的:评价早期肠内营养(EEN)对胃癌根治术患者术后恢复和免疫功能的影响。方法:选入2011年6月～2014年1月在我院行胃癌根治术治疗的患者60例,根据术后营养方式不同分为EEN组和全肠外营养支持(TPN)组,每组30例。比较两组患者机体恢复及免疫功能情况。术后随访3年,观察并记录两组无进展生存率和总生存率。结果:EEN组术后排气时间[(2.46±0.78)d vs(3.85±1.03)d]、排便时间[(4.03±1.17)d vs(5.67±1.23)d]、进流质时间[(5.88±1.30)d vs(7.26±1.59)d]、进半流食时间[(7.94±1.85)d vs(11.01±2.36)d]和住院天数[(14.87±2.56)d vs(17.54±3.30)d]均显著短于TPN组,差异均有统计学意义(P0.05)。术后第1d,两组各项体液免疫指标(Ig A、Ig G、Ig M浓度)和细胞免疫指标(CD3+、CD4+和CD4+/CD8+水平)均显著下降(P0.05),营养支持后逐渐恢复,而EEN组恢复幅度较TPN组大,差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。EEN组术后并发症总发生率显著低于TPN组(13.33%vs 36.67%,P0.05)。EEN组患者1年、2年和3年无进展生存率和总生存率均稍高于TPN组,但差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。结论:EEN可有效促进胃癌根治术患者的肠功能恢复,缩短住院时间,提高机体免疫功能,降低并发症的发生,值得在临床推荐应用。
