[Relation between food intake and oxygen consumption of organs drained by the portal vein in the conscious pig].
The intestinal absorption of glucose and alpha-amino nitrogen, the appearance of D-and L-lactic acids in the protal vein and the consumption of oxygen by the organs of the abdominal extrahepatic splanchnic area were studied simultaneously in pigs either during the postprandial period or during a fasting period of the same length. For this purpose, 5 growing pigs (59.4 +/- 3.5 kg live weight) were fitted with permanent catheters in the portal vein and carotid artery and with an electro-magnetic flowmeter probe around the portal vein. This device was used to measure the exchanges between the blood and the intestinal lumen. For a period of 1 wk, the animal received a semi-synthetic diet containing 6% purified cellulose (R6) and then during the next wk, a diet containing 16% purified cellulose (R16), the order of distribution being alternated from one animal to the next. During each of these 2 wk and after a fasting period of 16 h, they were subjected to 2 successive tests of 5 h, either after intake of an 800-g meal (R) (R6 or R16), or after no meal intake (J6 or J16). During these tests, blood samplings were made at 15 to 30-min intervals, the consumption of oxygen was recorded by an ABL3 radiometer and the afore mentioned nutrients and metabolites analysed in these samples. The consumption of oxygen was higher (P > 0.01) during the postprandial period (5.41 +/- 0.19 mmol/kg/h) than during the fasting period (4.64 +/- 0.19 mmol/kg/h) while the availability of oxygen only increased slightly (P < 0.05) (14.01 +/- 0.66 vs 13.08 +/- 0.76 mmol/kg/h). By contrast, the oxygen extraction coefficient did not significantly increase with meal intake. The appearance of L-lactic acid in the portal blood was higher (P < 0.001) during the postprandial period (3.83 +/- 0.32 g/h) than during the fasting period (1.23 +/- 0.23 g/h). The energy expenditure due to the aerobic metabolism of the organs drained by the portal vein ranged from 35.7 to 37.8 kcal/h after meal intake, ie 1-18% more than after fasting. The anaerobic metabolism only represented 0.3-0.4% (fasting) and 1.1-1.3% (postprandial period) of this aerobic metabolism. Oxygen consumption was not changed by the dietary cellulose content.
