OBJECTIVE In previous research, peptide YY (PYY) administered in supraphysiological doses did not induce significant proliferative effects in rats that were allowed to feed ad libitum after massive small bowel resection (SBR). The main reason may well have been the interference of endogenous PYY released from L cells in the distal bowel in response to the presence of augmented unabsorbed intraluminal nutrients. The purpose of the present study was to explore the effect of PYY on intestinal proliferation with total enteral nutrition (TEN) in a SBR model of PYY knockout (Pyy(-/-)) mice, which do not produce endogenous PYY. METHODS Pyy(-/-) mice were assigned into 3 experimental groups: sham mice (sham group) underwent bowel transection and reanastomosis, and received TEN; SBR mice (SBR group) underwent a 50% small bowel resection, and received TEN; and SBR-PYY mice (SBR-PYY group) underwent a 50% small bowel resection, received TEN, and were treated with PYY1-36 subcutaneously from day 2 postoperatively. Parameters of enterocyte proliferation and apoptosis were determined on day 8 following operation. RESULTS SBR-PYY mice demonstrated a significant increase in (vs SBR) bowel and mucosal weights, mucosal DNA and protein, villus height, and crypt depth in jejunum and ileum. SBR-PYY mice also showed an increased crypt cell proliferation index in jejunum and ileum and decreased villus cell apoptotic index in ileum compared with SBR animals. CONCLUSIONS In an SBR model of Pyy(-/-) mice, PYY induces proliferation of residual intestine with TEN.

D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

D001835 Body Weight The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms. Body Weights,Weight, Body,Weights, Body
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004750 Enteral Nutrition Nutritional support given via the alimentary canal or any route connected to the gastrointestinal system (i.e., the enteral route). This includes oral feeding, sip feeding, and tube feeding using nasogastric, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy tubes.
