Abstract
This following article is written for Prof. Abba Kastin's Festschrift, to add to the tribute to his important role in the advancement of the role of peptides in physiological, as well as pathophysiological processes. There have been many advances during the 35 years of his prominent role in the Peptide field, not only as editor of the journal Peptides, but also as a scientific investigator and editor of two volumes of the Handbook of Biological Active Peptides [146,147]. Similar to the advances with many different peptides, during this 35 year period, there have been much progress made in the understanding of the pharmacology, cell biology and the role of (bombesin) Bn receptors and their ligands in various disease states, since the original isolation of bombesin from skin of the European frog Bombina bombina in 1970 [76]. This paper will briefly review some of these advances over the time period of Prof. Kastin 35 years in the peptide field concentrating on the advances since 2007 when many of the results from earlier studies were summarized [128,129]. It is appropriate to do this because there have been 280 articles published in Peptides during this time on bombesin-related peptides and it accounts for almost 5% of all publications. Furthermore, 22 Bn publications we have been involved in have been published in either Peptides [14,39,55,58,81,92,93,119,152,216,225,226,231,280,302,309,355,361,362] or in Prof. Kastin's Handbook of Biological Active Peptides [137,138,331].

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) phenotype changes with parenteral nutrition (PN) and PN with bombesin (BBS). BACKGROUND PN reduces respiratory tract (RT) and GALT Peyer patch and lamina propria lymphocytes, lowers gut and RT immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels, and destroys established RT antiviral and antibacterial immunity. BBS, an enteric nervous system neuropeptide, reverses PN-induced IgA and RT immune defects. METHODS Experiment 1: Intravenously cannulated ICR mice received chow, PN, or PN + BBS injections for 5 days. LSR-II flow cytometer analyzed Peyer patches and lamina propria isolated lymphocytes for homing phenotypes (L-selectin and LPAM-1) and state of activation (CD25, CD44) in T (CD3)-cell subsets (CD4 and CD8) along with homing phenotype (L-selectin and LPAM-1) in naive B (IgD) and antigen-activated (IgD or IgM) B (CD45R/B220) cells. Experiment 2: Following the initial experiment 1 protocol, lamina propria T regulatory cell phenotype was evaluated by Foxp3 expression. RESULTS Experiment 1: PN significantly reduced lamina propria (1) CD4CD25 (activated) and (2) CD4CD25LPAM-1 (activated cells homed to the lamina propria) T cells, whereas PN-BBS assimilated chow levels. PN significantly reduced lamina propria (1) IgD (naive), (2) IgDLPAM (antigen-activated homed to the lamina propria) and CD44 memory B cells, whereas PN-BBS assimilated chow levels. Experiment 2: PN significantly reduced lamina propria CD4CD25Foxp3 T regulatory cells compared with chow-fed mice, whereas PN + BBS assimilated chow levels. CONCLUSIONS PN reduces lamina propria activated and T regulatory cells and also naive and memory B cells. BBS addition to PN maintains these cell phenotypes, demonstrating the intimate involvement of the enteric nervous system in mucosal immunity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases the risk of infection in critically ill patients and is associated with defects in gastrointestinal innate immunity. Goblet cells produce mucosal defense compounds, including mucin (principally MUC2), trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), and resistin-like molecule β (RELMβ). Bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, experimentally reverses PN-induced defects in Paneth cell innate immunity. We hypothesized that PN reduces goblet cell product expression and PN+BBS would reverse these PN-induced defects. METHODS Two days after intravenous cannulation, male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to chow (n = 15), PN (n = 13), or PN+BBS (15 µg tid) (n = 12) diets for 5 days. Defined segments of ileum and luminal fluid were analyzed for MUC2, TFF3, and RELMβ by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Th2 cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced MUC2 in ileum (P < .01) and luminal fluid (P = .01). BBS supplementation did not improve ileal or luminal MUC2 compared with PN (P > .3). Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced TFF3 in ileum (P < .02) and luminal fluid (P < .01). BBS addition did not improve ileal or luminal TFF3 compared with PN (P > .3). Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced ileal RELMβ (P < .01). BBS supplementation significantly increased ileal RELMβ to levels similar to chow (P < .03 vs PN; P > .6 vs chow). Th2 cytokines were decreased with PN and returned to chow levels with BBS. CONCLUSION PN significantly impairs the goblet cell component of innate mucosal immunity. BBS only preserves goblet cell RELMβ during PN but not other goblet cell products measured.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lack of enteral stimulation during parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs mucosal immunity. Bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, reverses PN-induced defects in acquired immunity. Paneth cells produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of innate immunity for release after cholinergic stimulation. OBJECTIVE Determine if BBS restores AMPs and bactericidal function during PN. METHODS Intravenously cannulated male ICR mice were randomized to Chow, PN, or PN+BBS (15 μg 3 times daily, n = 7 per group) for 5 days. Ileum was analyzed for AMPs (Protein: sPLA2 by fluorescence, lysozyme and RegIII-γ by western andcryptdin-4 by ELISA; mRNA: all by RT-PCR). Cholinergic stimulated (100 μM bethanechol) ileal specimens assessed Pseudomonas bactericidal activity. Ileum (Chow: n = 7; PN: n = 9; PN+BBS: n = 8) was assessed for Escherichia coli invasion in ex-vivo culture. RESULTS PN significantly decreased most AMPs versus Chow while BBS maintained Chow levels (sPLA2: Chow: 107 + 14*, PN: 44.6 + 7.2, PN+BBS: 78.7 + 13.4* Fl/min/μL/total protein; Lysozyme: Chow: 63.9 + 11.9*, PN: 26.8 + 6.2; PN+BBS: 64.9 + 13.8* lysozyme/total protein; RegIII-γ: Chow: 51.5 + 10.0*, PN: 20.4 + 4.3, PN+BBS: 31.0 + 8.4 RegIII-γ/total protein; Cryptdin-4: Chow: 18.4 + 1.5*, PN: 12.7 + 1.6, PN+BBS: 26.1 + 2.4*† pg/mg [all *P < 0.05 vs PN and †P < 0.05 vs Chow]). Functionally, BBS prevented PN loss of bactericidal activity after cholinergic stimulation (Chow: 25.3 + 3.6*, PN: 13.0 + 3.2; PN+BBS: 27.0 + 4.7* percent bacterial killing, *P < 0.05 vs PN). BBS reduced bacterial invasion in unstimulated tissue barely missing significance (P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS The enteric nervous system (ENS) controls AMP levels in Paneth cells during PN but mucosal protection by innate immunity requires both ENS and parasympathetic stimulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The parotid and submandibular salivary glands are gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALTs) that secrete immune compounds into the oral cavity. Parenteral nutrition (PN) without enteral stimulation decreases GALT function, including intestinal lymphocyte counts and secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) levels. Since the neuropeptide bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, stimulates intestinal function and restores GALT parameters, we hypothesized that PN + BBS would stimulate parotid and salivary gland IgA levels, T lymphocytes, and IgA plasma cell counts compared with PN alone. METHODS Male (Institute of Cancer Research) ICR mice received intravenous catheters and were randomized to chow with saline, PN, or PN + BBS (15 µg/tid/mouse) for 5 days (8/group), 2 days after cannulation. Salivary glands were weighed and either frozen for IgA and amylase analysis or fixed for histological analysis of acinar cells, IgA+ plasma cells, and T lymphocytes. Small intestinal wash fluid was collected for IgA regression analysis with salivary glands. RESULTS PN reduced organ weight, acinar cell size, and amylase activity compared with chow; BBS had no significant effects on these parameters. Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced salivary gland IgA levels, IgA+ plasma cells, and T lymphocytes. PN + BBS significantly elevated IgA and restored cellularity compared with PN. Salivary gland tissue homogenate IgA levels significantly correlated with intestinal fluid IgA levels. CONCLUSIONS Compared with chow, PN results in atrophy of the salivary glands characterized by reduced amylase, IgA, and immune cellularity. BBS has no effect on acinar cells or amylase activity compared with PN but maintains tissue IgA and plasma cells and T-lymphocyte numbers compared with chow.

Abstract
The human intestine contains huge amounts of nonpathologic bacteria surviving in an environment that is beneficial to both the host and the bacterial populations. When short pauses in oral intake occur with minimal alterations in the mucosa-microbial interface, critical illness, with its attendant acidosis, prolonged gastrointestinal tract starvation, exogenous antibiotics, and breakdown in mucosal defenses, renders the host vulnerable to bacterial challenge and also threatens the survival of the bacteria. This review examines the altered innate and adaptive immunologic host defenses that occur as a result of altered oral or enteral intake and/or injury.

Abstract
The last 4 decades have seen an explosion in nutritional research investigating both clinical and laboratory issues occurring in diverse groups of patients who cannot maintain a normal oral diet. Over the past 25 years, researchers have investigated how the administration of macro- and micronutrients via the gastrointestinal tract provides additional benefit over parenteral administration of similar nutrients. The administration of enteral feeding provides effects that are far beyond those of merely administering macro- and micronutrients. Rather, the processing of nutrients via the gastrointestinal tract stimulates a complex response that has implications for body composition and for immunologic integrity. Route and type of nutrition are important aspects of successful patient recovery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the influence of route of nutrition on gut mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) expression and the effect of MAdCAM-1 blockade on gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) lymphocyte populations and established respiratory antibacterial immunity. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Lymphocytes, sensitized to antigens in Peyer's patches, migrate via mesenteric lymph nodes and home to intestinal lamina propria. MAdCAM-1 located on endothelial cells regulates this trafficking. Experimentally, parenteral nutrition (PN) decreases GALT cell mass and mucosal immunity when compared with enteral feeding. METHODS In experiment 1, MAdCAM-1 expression was quantified in 32 mice after 4 days of feeding chow, a complex diet, intragastric (IG)-PN, or PN. In experiment 2, MAdCAM-1 was measured in 102 mice 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, or 72 hours after starting PN and at 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, or 48 hours after reinstituting chow following 5 days of PN. In experiment 3, 56 mice received chow, PN, chow + MECA-367 (anti-MAdCAM-1 mAb), or chow + Isotype control Ab (IsoAb) for 5 days, followed by Peyer's patches, lamina propria, and intraepithelial lymphocyte yield with respiratory and intestinal IgA levels. In experiment 4, 10 days after Pseudomonas immunization, mice received chow + MECA-367 or chow + IsoAb for 4 days followed by 1.2 x 108 Pseudomonas intratracheally. RESULTS Diet and route affect MAdCAM-1 expression (chow > complex diet > IG-PN > PN). Decreased MAdCAM-1 expression occurred within hours of starting PN in Peyer's patches, but not mesenteric lymph nodes or the intestine, and recovered quickly with enteral refeeding. MAdCAM-1 blockade reduced all GALT populations. Blockade had little effect on IgA levels and partially impaired the late response of established respiratory immunity. CONCLUSIONS Enteral feeding affects MAdCAM-1 expression. Complete MAdCAM-1 blockade reduces GALT lymphocytes to PN levels, but the chow feeding stimulus preserves IgA and early antibacterial resistance, implying the existence of non-MAdCAM-1 mechanisms to preserve mucosal immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A significant body of clinical literature demonstrates that enteral feeding significantly reduces the incidence of pneumonia compared to patients fed parenterally. An immunologic link between the gastrointestinal tract and respiratory tract is postulated via the common mucosal immune hypothesis. This hypothesis states that cells are sensitized within the Peyer's patches of the small intestine and are subsequently distributed to submucosal locations in both intestinal and extra intestinal sites. This system is exquisitely sensitive to route and type of nutrition. DATA SOURCE This review examines the laboratory data regarding cell numbers, cell phenotypes, cytokine profile, and immunologic function in both intestinal and extra intestinal sites in animals that have been administered either parenteral feeding or various types of enteral feeding. It also establishes links between a specific nutrient, glutamine, the enteric nervous system, by way of neuropeptides, and mucosal immunity. CONCLUSION Progress in understanding relationships between nutrient availability, enteric nervous system stimulation, and nutrient delivery on mucosal immunity offers opportunities to explore immune systems previously not appreciated by clinicians and basic scientists. These opportunities offer new challenges to the physician scientist, basic scientist, and clinician to understand, manipulate, and apply these concepts to the critically ill patient population by favorably influencing immunologic barriers and the inflammatory response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Th2 cytokines, interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-10 (IL-10), stimulate IgA production. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) reduces IL-4 and IL-10 messenger RNA in gut lamina propria lymphocytes, total IL-4 and IL-10 in gut homogenates, and IgA-mediated mucosal immunity. Bombesin (BBS) can maintain mucosal immunity in TPN-fed mice, but the effects of BBS on gut IL-4 and IL-10 levels and their mRNA expression in the lamina propria are unknown. METHODS In experiment 1, mice that were fed chow, TPN, or TPN + BBS (15 microg/kg intravenously-three times a day) for 5 days were killed, and respiratory tract IgA and intestinal IgA, IL-4, and IL-10 levels were measured. In experiment 2, IL-4 and IL-10 mRNA were measured in isolated lamina propria lymphocytes from chow-, TPN-, and TPN+BBS-fed mice by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Intestines were harvested 1 hour after injection of 100 7 microg of lipopolysaccharide intraperitoneally. Samples were standardized to beta-actin. RESULTS TPN-fed mice had significantly lower respiratory tract IgA levels than chow- or TPN + BBS-fed mice. TPN+BBS did not increase intestinal IL-10 or IL-10 lamina propria mRNA levels but maintained intestinal IL-4 levels and lamina propria IL-4 mRNA expression equal to those of chow-fed mice. CONCLUSIONS BBS reverses the effects of TPN on intestinal and respiratory tract IgA levels and most effects on gut cytokines. Lamina propria cytokine mRNA levels reflect total gut cytokine concentration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between hyperglycemia and infectious complications in nutritional studies of trauma patients. METHODS Retrospective review of serum glucose values in two published randomized, prospective studies of patients receiving either enteral or parenteral feeding (trial 1) or isonitrogenous, isocaloric enteral diets (trial 2). Trial 2 also included patients prospectively followed who received little or no enteral feeding. RESULTS Patients randomized to enteral or parenteral feeding in trial 1 exhibited no significant differences in the highest recorded serum glucose (SG) until the fourth or fifth day after protocol entry. SG tended to be higher in infected than non-infected patients in the first 4 hospital days, but SG was far below values considered to increase the risk for infection (SG > 220 mg/dL). In trial 2, glucose levels tended to be slightly higher in infected than in noninfected patients within the first 5 days reaching statistical significance by day 5. Unfed control patients had similar SG values but significantly more major infectious complications. CONCLUSIONS Patients developing infections had slightly higher SG levels than noninfected patients early in admission, but these SG values were far below levels considered a risk for infective complications. Significant hyperglycemia does not explain differences in infectious complications in critically ill trauma patients randomized to various routes and types of nutrition.

Abstract
Secretory IgA (SIgA) is the primary mucosal Ig and has been shown to mediate nasotracheal (NT) mucosal immunity in normal immune BALB/c mice. This finding has been challenged by a report of NT immunity without IgA in knockout mice, suggesting that IgA may not be necessary for the protection of mucosal surfaces. Although other protective mechanisms may become active in the congenital absence of SIgA, these mechanisms are not the primary means of protection in normal mice. In this paper we show that feeding chemically defined total parenteral nutrition (TPN) to genetically normal, immune ICR mice by the i.v. route results in loss of nasal anti-influenza immunity and a significant drop in influenza-specific SIgA in the upper respiratory tract compared with chow-fed mice (p < 0.005), while the serum influenza-specific IgG titer is unaffected. Loss of upper respiratory tract mucosal immunity is not related to serum Ab, because 10 of 13 TPN-fed mice shed virus into their nasal secretions despite adequate serum anti-influenza IgG titers. The number of IgG Ab-secreting cells in the nasal passages and spleens of TPN-fed mice was unaffected, while both the number and the percentage of splenic IgA-secreting cells were decreased relative to those in chow-fed animals. The loss of immunity is due to the route of nutrition, not the composition of the diet, because TPN solution fed orally via gastrostomy instead of i.v. maintains NT anti-influenza mucosal immunity. We hypothesize that delivery of nutrition via the gut triggers the release of gastrointestinal neuropeptides necessary for maintenance of the mucosal immune system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) leads to atrophy of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and a significant decrease in intestinal immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels, a major constituent of mucosal immunity. Bombesin (BBS) prevents TPN-induced GALT atrophy and maintains intestinal IgA levels. BBS, a neuropeptide analogous to gastrin-releasing peptide in humans, stimulates the release of other gut neuropeptides including cholecystokinin (CCK), gastrin, and neurotensin (NT). This study investigates the ability of CCK, gastrin, or NT to individually prevent TPN-induced GALT atrophy and preserve respiratory immunity. METHODS Experiment 1: Male mice were randomly assigned to receive chow, TPN, TPN plus CCK, TPN plus gastrin, or TPN plus NT. After 5 days of feeding, Peyer's patches (PP) from the proximal and distal small bowel were harvested and analyzed for cell yields. PP cells were also analyzed for GALT cell type. Small bowel IgA levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Experiment 2: Mice were randomly assigned to receive either liposomes containing Pseudomonas antigen or liposomes without antigen. After 10 days, mice were randomly assigned to the same five treatment groups, fed for 5 days, and then given intratracheal Pseudomonas. Mortality was assessed after 48 hours. RESULTS Experiment 1: GALT cell reductions due to IV-TPN were greater in the distal than proximal small bowel. All three neuropeptides prevented most TPN-induced GALT atrophy due mainly to the maintenance of the B-cell and T-cell populations in the PP of the distal bowel. Intestinal IgA levels were significantly higher in the animals treated with neuropeptides than animals treated with TPN only; however, these IgA levels were not maintained at levels observed in chow-fed animals. Experiment 2: Immunization resulted in significantly lower mortality in animals fed chow, TPN plus CCK, and TPN plus gastrin. TPN alone and TPN plus NT resulted in loss of immunity and mortality rate at comparable levels to unimmunized animals. CONCLUSIONS Supplementation of IV-TPN with CCK, gastrin, and NT prevents GALT atrophy, primarily in the distal bowel. Intestinal IgA levels improve but not to normal levels. CCK and gastrin reversed IV-TPN-induced effects on antibacterial pneumonia in immunized animals while NT did not.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the ability of bombesin (BBS) to recover gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and preserve immunity in a lethal model of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Ps) pneumonia in mice receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA TPN causes depression of mucosal immunity compared with enterally fed animals, which may explain the increased incidence of pneumonia in parenterally fed trauma patients. BBS prevents this TPN-induced GALT atrophy, depressed gastrointestinal and respiratory tract IgA levels, and impaired antiviral IgA-mediated mucosal immunity. The authors examined whether some supplement could be added to TPN to avoid this GALT atrophy and lower the incidence of infectious complications in the parenterally fed animal. METHODS Male mice were randomized to chow or intravenous (IV) TPN. After 5 days of IV TPN, mice received 0, 1, 2, or 3 days of BBS IV three times a day and then were killed to harvest Peyer's patch, intraepithelium, and lamina propria for cell yields. Gastrointestinal and respiratory tract IgA levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Next, mice underwent intranasal inoculation with liposomes alone (nonimmune) or liposome-containing Ps polysaccharide. Ps immune mice were catheterized and randomized to chow, IV TPN, or IV TPN + BBS. The liposome group received chow but no IV catheter. These mice were given an LD90 dose of intratracheal Ps, and death rates were recorded. RESULTS GALT and gastrointestinal and respiratory tract IgA levels improved to those in chow-fed mice after 3 days of BBS. Immunization reduced the death rate from 92% in chow-fed liposome-only animals to 20% in immunized animals. TPN-fed animals lost their mucosal immunity, with a death rate of 86% compared with 21% in the TPN + BBS group. CONCLUSION The results demonstrate that BBS reverses TPN-induced changes in GALT and preserves mucosal immunity. Ps immunization reduces the death rate in a gram-negative pneumonia model and maintains gastrointestinal and respiratory immunity in Ps immune mice receiving IV TPN.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract functions not only to absorb nutrients, it also plays an important immunologic role during health and critical illness. Under experimental and certain clinical conditions, stimulating the gut attentuates the stress response and avoids mucosal atrophy and increases permeability. Gut stimulation prevents atrophy of the gut-associated lymphoid tissue, the body's major defender of moist mucosal surfaces. A better understanding of gut function and improved nutrient delivery has clinical implications in the treatment of critically ill patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a model of established respiratory immunity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia and to investigate the effects of route and type of nutrition on this immunity. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Diet influences the ability of gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) to maintain mucosal immunity. Complex enteral diets and chow maintain normal GALT populations against established IgA-mediated antiviral respiratory immunity. Both intravenous and intragastric total parenteral nutrition (TPN) produce GALT atrophy, but only intragastric TPN preserves established antiviral immunity. The authors hypothesized that both GALT-depleting diets (intragastric and intravenous TPN) would impair immunity against bacterial pneumonia. METHODS P. aeruginosa was administered intratracheally to determine the mortality rate at increasing doses, and liposomes containing P. aeruginosa antigens were used to generate effective respiratory immunization. In the final experiment, mice received liposomes containing P. aeruginosa antigens to establish immunity and then were randomized to chow, complex enteral diets, intragastric TPN, or intravenous TPN. After 5 days of diet, mice received live intratracheal P. aeruginosa, and the death rate was recorded at 24 and 48 hours. RESULTS The LD50 and LD100 were 9 x 10(7) and 12 x 10(7), respectively. Immunization reduced the mortality rate from 66% to 12%. This immunization was maintained in mice fed chow or a complex enteral diet and was lost in animals receiving intravenous TPN. Intragastric TPN partially preserved this respiratory immunity. CONCLUSIONS Protection against bacterial pneumonia can be induced by prior antigenic immunization. This protection is lost with intravenous TPN, partially preserved with a chemically defined enteral diet, and completely preserved with chow or complex enteral diets. Both route and type of nutrition influence antibacterial respiratory tract immunity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The authors characterize the recovery of parenteral nutrition-induced changes in gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and upper respiratory tract immunity with enteral nutrition and provide further information defining the effects of enteral feeding on mucosal immunity. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA The small intestine plays a prominent role in development and maintenance of mucosal immunity, both intestinal and extraintestinal, primarily through immunoglobulin A (IgA)-mediated mechanisms. Prior research has shown that mice fed total parenteral nutrition (TPN) have reduced GALT T and B cells, the cells responsible for IgA production, as well as impaired upper respiratory tract immunity to viral challenge of previously immunized animals. The recovery of TPN-induced changes in GALT and upper respiratory tract immunity after enteral refeeding is studied. METHODS Male institute of Cancer Research mice received 5 days of TPN followed by 0 to 4 days of chow. Small intestinal GALT was characterized by flow cytometry. In a second experiment, animals were immunized intranasally with moused-adapted influenza virus. Three weeks later, one group received a 5-day course of TPN followed by enteral refeeding for 5 days. A second group received TPN alone. Both groups were challenged with intranasal virus and killed 40 hours postchallenge to determine viral shedding from the upper respiratory tract. RESULTS Animals fed TPN only had significantly fewer GALT lymphocytes compared with those chow-fed control subjects. Peyer's patch counts increased after a single day of refeeding, returning to normal levels by 48 hours. Lamina propria counts remained significantly depressed after 24 hours of refeeding, but also returned to normal after 48 hours of refeeding. The T-cell and B-cell populations mimicked total cell patterns. Lamina propria CD4+/CD8+ ratio returned to normal only after 72 hours of refeeding. None of the 9 animals refed enterally for 5 days were positive for viral shedding, compared with 8 of 12 matched TPN-fed animals. CONCLUSIONS Enteral refeeding after TPN is associated with rapid repletion of GALT cellularity, initially within Peyer's patches and subsequently within the lamina propria. Refeeding corrects the impairment of IgA-mediated upper respiratory tract antiviral immunity occurring with TPN administration. This work further enhances the authors' knowledge of the underlying immunologic differences influenced by routes of nutrition.
