RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Because vasoactive eicosanoids derived from arachidonic acid present in immune cell phospholipids promote lung inflammation in critically ill patients, novel experimental diets containing eicosapentaenoic acid from fish oil and gamma-linolenic acid from borage oil have been designed to limit arachidonic acid metabolism. However, excess dietary eicosapentaenoic acid impairs superoxide formation and bacterial killing by immune cells. The present study determined whether short-term enteral feeding with diets enriched with either eicosapentaenoic acid alone or in combination with gamma-linolenic acid would modulate alveolar macrophage eicosanoid synthesis without compromising bactericidal function. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded study. SETTING: University medical center. SUBJECTS: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS: Rats underwent surgical placement of a gastroduodenal feeding catheter and were randomly assigned to receive one of three high-fat (55.2% of total calories), low-carbohydrate diets containing isocaloric amounts of lipids for 4 days. The control diet was enriched with linoleic acid, whereas the two test diets were low in linoleic acid and enriched with either 5 mole % eicosapentaenoic acid alone or in combination with 5 mole % gamma-linolenic acid. Alveolar macrophages were then procured to assess phospholipid fatty acid composition, eicosanoid synthesis after stimulation with endotoxin, superoxide formation and phagocytosis by flow cytometry, and killing of Staphylococcus aureus MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Alveolar macrophage levels of arachidonic acid were significantly (p < .01) lower and levels of eicosapentaenoic and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acids were higher after feeding the eicosapentaenoic and gamma-linolenic acid diet vs. the linoleic acid diet. Ratios of thromboxane B2,/B3, leukotriene B4/B5, and prostaglandin E2/E1 were reduced in the macrophages from rats given either the eicosapentaenoic acid or eicosapentaenoic acid with gamma-linolenic acid diet compared with ratios from rats given the linoleic acid diet. Macrophages from rats given the eicosapentaenoic with gamma-linolenic acid diet released 35% or 24% more prostaglandin E1 than macrophages from rats given either the linoleic acid or the eicosapentaenoic acid diet, respectively. Macrophage superoxide generation, phagocytosis of opsonized zymosan, and killing of S. aureus were similar irrespective of dietary treatment. CONCLUSION: Short-term enteral feeding with an eicosapentaenoic acid-enriched or eicosapentaenoic with gamma-linolenic acid-enriched diet rapidly modulated the fatty acid composition of alveolar macrophage phospholipids, promoted a shift toward formation of less inflammatory eicosanoids by stimulated macrophages, but did not impair alveolar macrophage bactericidal function relative to responses observed after feeding a linoleic acid diet.

RESUMO

Dienoic eicosanoids derived from phospholipid arachidonic acid (AA) in lung and liver macrophages promote leukosequestration, thrombosis, and tissue injury. Current enteral diets (diet A) are enriched with linoleic acid (LA), a precursor of AA. Novel diets low in LA and containing eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) foster formation of less inflammatory eicosanoids. The study objective was to assess the rapidity and extent of LA and AA displacement in vivo from alveolar macrophage (AM phi), lung, and liver Kupffer and endothelial (KE) cell phospholipids in rats fed enterally with diets enriched with 5.3% (by wt) EPA and either 1.2% or 4.6% GLA (diets B and C, respectively). After surgical placement of catheters, the rats were fed enterally and co-infused intravenously with either endotoxin or vehicle continuously for 3 or 6 d. Rats given either diet B or C had significantly lower (P < 0.01) relative percentages of AA and LA within the AM phi, lung, and KE cell phospholipids, and concomitantly higher percentages of EPA compared with rats infused with diet A after 3 d of enteral feeding irrespective of endotoxin co-infusion. Incorporation of dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DHGLA), the metabolite of GLA, into lung and KE phospholipids was significant in rats given diet C. Most of the changes in fatty acid composition occurred by day 3. The polyunsaturated fatty acid composition of AM phi, lung, and KE cell phospholipids can be rapidly modified by continuous short-term enteral feeding with EPA- and GLA-enriched diets irrespective of concurrent endotoxemia.

RESUMO

Utilization of enteral feeding modalities may prove clinically relevant for rapid modulation of lung phospholipid polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) that serve as substrates for the formation of vasoactive dienoic eicosanoids. We compared the effects of short-term enteral feeding with formulations enriched with either fish (n-3) or corn (n-6) oil PUFA on the fatty acid composition of rat lung, alveolar macrophage and surfactant phospholipids. The diets were infused continuously for 72 h through a surgically placed gastroduodenal feeding catheter by a syringe pump. The n-3 PUFA derived from the fish oil enriched diet were readily incorporated into the phospholipid membranes of the alveolar macrophages, lung tissue and pulmonary surfactant. The relative percentages of the n-3 PUFA were significantly higher and individual and total n-6 PUFA significantly lower in the macrophage, lung and surfactant phospholipids from the n-3-supplemented rats in comparison with those present in the rats infused enterally with the n-6 diet or untreated, chow-fed rats (baseline). In contrast, there was a significant increase in linoleic acid (18:2n-6) without modification of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) in the alveolar macrophages, lung tissue and surfactant from rats enterally receiving the n-6 diet relative to levels measured in the rats at baseline. The results suggest that short-term continuous delivery of n-3-enriched enteral preparations can foster rapid modification of membrane phospholipid PUFA composition of lung tissue, alveolar macrophages and lung surfactant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
