Effect of dietary fat on fat absorption and concomitant plasma and tissue fat composition in a rat model of short bowel syndrome (2004)

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary fat on the time course of changes in fat absorption and tissue and plasma lipid composition in a rat model of short bowel syndrome (SBS). Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent either a bowel transection with re-anastomosis (Sham rats) or 75% small bowel resection (SBS rats). Animals were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Sham rats fed normal chow (Sham-NC), SBS rats fed normal chow (SBS-NC), or SBS rats fed a high-fat diet (SBS-HFD). Rats were sacrificed on day 3 or 14. Body weight, food intake, food clearance (dry fecal mass), and fat clearance (total fecal fat) were measured twice a week. Fat and energy intakes were calculated according to the amount of ingested food. Food and fat absorbability were calculated as intake minus clearance and were expressed as percent of intake. Serum cholesterol, triglyceride, and albumin were measured. Total lipid composition of the liver, epididymal adipose tissue, and the small intestine was determined. Statistical analysis was performed by a Student’s test, with p values . Peer Reviewed. http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/47161/1/383_2004_Article_1143.pdf
