Abstract
Viral infections continue to cause considerable morbidity and mortality around the world. Recent rises in these infections are likely due to complex and multifactorial external drivers, including climate change, the increased mobility of people and goods and rapid demographic change to name but a few. In parallel with these external factors, we are gaining a better understanding of the internal factors associated with viral immunity. Increasingly the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiome has been shown to be a significant player in the host immune system, acting as a key regulator of immunity and host defense mechanisms. An increasing body of evidence indicates that disruption of the homeostasis between the GI microbiome and the host immune system can adversely impact viral immunity. This review aims to shed light on our understanding of how host-microbiota interactions shape the immune system, including early life factors, antibiotic exposure, immunosenescence, diet and inflammatory diseases. We also discuss the evidence base for how host commensal organisms and microbiome therapeutics can impact the prevention and/or treatment of viral infections, such as viral gastroenteritis, viral hepatitis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), human papilloma virus (HPV), viral upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), influenza and SARS CoV-2. The interplay between the gastrointestinal microbiome, invasive viruses and host physiology is complex and yet to be fully characterized, but increasingly the evidence shows that the microbiome can have an impact on viral disease outcomes. While the current evidence base is informative, further well designed human clinical trials will be needed to fully understand the array of immunological mechanisms underlying this intricate relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) prevents adherence of pathogens at mucosal surfaces to prevent invasive infection. Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) is located on the basolateral surface of epithelial cells and binds dimeric immunoglobulin A (IgA) produced by plasma cells in the lamina propria. This IgA-pIgR complex is transported apically, where IgA is exocytosed as SIgA to the mucosal surface. Our prior work shows that mice fed intragastric (IG, an elemental diet model) and IV parenteral nutrition (PN) solution have reduced intestinal T and B cells, SIgA, and interleukin-4 (IL-4) compared with mice fed chow or a complex enteral diet (CED). Prior work also demonstrates a reduction in IgA transport to mucosal surfaces in IV PN-fed mice. Because IL-4 up-regulates pIgR production, this work studies the effects of these diets on intestinal pIgR. METHODS Male Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice were randomized to chow (n = 11) with IV catheter, CED (n = 10) or IG PN (n = 11) via gastrostomy and IV PN (n = 12) for 5 days. CED and PN were isocaloric and isonitrogenous. Small intestine was harvested for pIgR and IL-4 assays after mucosal washing for IgA. IgA and IL-4 levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS Small intestinal pIgR expression, IgA levels, and IL-4 levels decreased significantly in IV PN and IG PN groups. CONCLUSIONS Lack of enteral stimulation affects multiple mechanisms responsible for decreased intestinal SIgA levels, including reduced T and B cells in the lamina propria, reduced Th-2 IgA-stimulating cytokines, and impaired expression of the IgA transport protein, pIgR.

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 Outbred mice exhibit increased airway and intestinal immunoglobulin A (IgA) following injury when fed normal chow, consistent with humans. Parenteral nutrition (PN) eliminates IgA increases at both sites. Inbred mice are needed for detailed immunological studies; however, specific strains have not been evaluated for this purpose. BALB/c and C57BL/6 are common inbred mouse strains but demonstrate divergent immune responses to analogous stress. This study addressed which inbred mouse strain best replicates the outbred mouse and human immune response to injury. METHODS Intravenously cannulated mice received chow or PN for 5 days and then underwent sacrifice at 0 or 8 hours following controlled surgical injury (BALB/c: n = 16-21/group; C57BL/6: n = 12-15/group). Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for IgA, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6, while small intestinal wash fluid (SIWF) was analyzed for IgA. RESULTS No significant increase in BAL IgA occurred following injury in chow- or PN-fed BALB/c mice (chow: P = .1; PN: P = .7) despite significant increases in BAL TNF-α and SIWF IgA (chow: 264 ± 28 vs 548 ± 37, P < .0001; PN: 150 ± 12 vs 301 ± 17, P < .0001). Injury significantly increased mucosal IgA in chow-fed C57BL/6 mice (BAL: 149 ± 33 vs 342 ± 87, P = .01; SIWF: 236 ± 28 vs 335 ± 32, P = .006) and BAL cytokines. After injury, PN-fed C57BL/6 mice exhibited no difference in BAL IgA (P = .9), BAL cytokines, or SIWF IgA (P = .1). CONCLUSIONS C57BL/6 mice exhibit similar airway responses to injury as outbred mice and humans, providing an appropriate model for studying mucosal responses to injury. The BALB/c mucosal immune system responds differently to injury and does not replicate the human injury response.

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
INTRODUCTION Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases the risk of infection in patients with contraindication to enteral feeding. Paneth cells produce and secrete antimicrobial products that protect the mucosa from pathogens. Their loss is associated with increased host-pathogen interactions, mucosal inflammation, and altered microbiome composition. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesized that PN reduces Paneth cell product expression, and these changes would reduce bactericidal properties of tissue secretions following cholinergic stimulation, increase mucosal enteroinvasion, and shift the intestinal microbiome. METHOD Experiment 1: Male ICR mice were randomized to Chow (n = 8) or PN (n = 8). Ileum tissue was collected for Paneth cell antimicrobial expression using RT-PCR, stimulated with a cholinergic agonist degranulate Paneth cells bactericidal activity, or used to assess bacterial enteroinvasion in EVISC. Experiment 2: Mice were randomized to Chow (n = 11) or PN (n = 8) and ileum washing was collected for 16s pyrosequencing analysis. RESULTS Compared to Chow, PN decreased tissue expression of REGIII-g (p < 0.002), lysozyme (p < 0.002), and cryptdin-4 (p < 0.03). At the phylum level, PN decreased total Firmicutes but increased total Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria. Functionally, secretions from PN tissue was less bactericidal (p < 0.03) and demonstrated increased susceptibility to enteroinvasion by E coli (p < 0.02). CONCLUSION PN without enteral nutrition impairs innate mucosal immune function. Tissue expression of Paneth cell antimicrobial proteins decreases associated with compositional shifts to the microbiome, decreased bactericidal activity of mucosal secretions and greater susceptibility of to enteroinvasion by E coli. These changes may explain in-part the increased risk of infection in parenterally fed patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) are the principal immunoglobulins in the respiratory tract. Under normal circumstances, the upper respiratory tract contains predominantly sIgA, whereas IgG is of primary importance in the lower tract. Unlike other antibody isotypes, IgA antibodies participate in host defense functions without inciting inflammatory processes that might cause collateral damage to tissues. However, the ability of sIgA to modulate inflammatory reactions induced by other humoral factors is unclear. We examined the effect of the sequence of exposure to the two immunoglobulin isotypes on bacteria- or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated cytokine production by monocyte-polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) cells in vitro. METHODS Blood monocytes were co-cultured with Escherichia coli or LPS. Either sIgA or IgG was added to subsets of cultures, which were incubated for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Culture supernatant liquids were then co-cultured with naïve PMNs for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Either IgG was added during this co-culture step or sIgA was added if IgG was added first. Cytokines were quantitated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Significant increases in interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and IL-8 were noted after E. coli or LPS co-culture with monocytes and subsequent PMN challenge. Marked decreases in these pro-inflammatory cytokines were seen after the addition of sIgA or sIgA-IgG but not after IgG alone. This effect was more apparent with the immunoglobulin sequence IgA followed by IgG. CONCLUSION The sequence of immunoglobulin isotype involvement in infectious processes is important in modulating the cytokine response to bacteria and LPS by inflammatory cells. Our in vitro results support the critical role of sIgA in the proximal airways in mitigating inflammatory responses by other humoral defenses in the distal airways. Loss of effective sIgA function may contribute to increased morbidity and deaths from nosocomial pneumonia in compromised patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Absence of enteral nutrition (EN) reduces hepatic mononuclear cell (MNC) numbers and impairs their functions. However, enteral refeeding (ER) for as little as 12 hours following parenteral nutrition (PN) rapidly restores hepatic MNC numbers. We hypothesized that changes in small intestine and portal vein blood flows related to feeding route might be responsible for this phenomenon. METHODS In experiment 1, mice (n = 19) were randomized to Chow (n = 5), PN (n = 7) or ER (n = 7) groups. The Chow group was given chow ad libitum with intravenous (IV) saline for 5 days. The PN group was fed parenterally for 5 days, while the ER group was re-fed with chow for 12 hours following 5 days of PN. Then, small intestine and portal vein blood flows were monitored and hepatic MNCs were isolated and counted. In experiment 2, the effects of intravenous administration of prostaglandin E(1) (PGE(1)) on hepatic MNC numbers were examined in fasted mice for 12 hours. Mice (n = 28) were randomized to Control (n = 8), PG0 (n = 10), or PG1 (n = 10) groups. The Control group was fed chow ad libitum with IV saline, while the PG0 and PG1 groups were fasted for 12 hours with infusions, respectively, of saline and PGE(1) at 1 microg/kg/minute. Blood flows and hepatic MNC numbers were examined. RESULTS Experiment 1: ER restored PN-induced reductions in small intestine and portal vein blood flows and hepatic MNC number to the levels in the Chow group. Small intestine and portal vein blood flows correlated positively with hepatic MNC number. Experiment 2: Fasting decreased small intestine and portal vein blood flows and hepatic MNC number. However, PGE(1) restored portal vein blood flow to the level of the Control group, and moderately increased hepatic MNC number. There was a positive correlation between portal blood flow and hepatic MNC number. CONCLUSIONS Reduced small intestine and portal vein blood flows may contribute to impaired hepatic immunity in the absence of EN. ER quickly restores hepatic MNC number through recovery of blood flow in both the small intestine and the portal vein.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of parenteral nutrition (PN) on lymphocyte mass in the lung is unknown, but reduced mucosal lymphocytes are hypothesized to play a role in the reduced immunoglobulin A-mediated immunity in both gut and lung. The ability to transfer and track cells between mice may allow study of diet-induced mucosal immune function. The objectives of this study are to characterize lung T-cell populations following parenteral feeding and to study distribution patterns of transferred donor lung T cells in recipient mice. METHODS In experiment 1, cannulated male Balb/c mice are randomized to receive chow or PN for 5 days. Lung lymphocytes are obtained via collagenase digestion, and flow cytometric analysis is used to identify total T (CD3+) and B (CD45/B220+) cells. In experiment 2, isolated lung T cells from chow-fed male Balb/c mice are pooled and labeled in vitro with a fluorescent dye (carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester [CFSE]), and 1.1 x 10(8) CFSE+ cells (3.1 x 10(6) T cells) are transferred to chow-fed Balb/c recipients. Cells recovered from recipient lungs and intestinal lamina propria (LP) are analyzed by flow cytometry to determine CFSE/CD3+ T cells at 1, 2, and 7 days. In experiment 3, cells are transferred to PN-fed recipients. RESULTS In experiment 1, PN significantly decreases lung T- and B-cell populations compared with chow feeding. In experiment 2, CFSE+ T-cell retention is highest on day 1 in lung and LP, and decreases on day 2. Cells are gone by day 7; 98.1% of retained donor lung T cells migrate to recipient lungs and 1.9% to the intestine on day 1. Similar results are seen in experiment 3 after transfer of cells to PN-fed recipients. CONCLUSIONS PN reduces pulmonary lymphocyte populations consistent with impaired respiratory immunity. Transferred lung T cells preferentially localize to recipient lungs rather than intestine with maximal accumulation at 24 hours. Limited cross-talk of transferred lung T cells to the intestine indicates that mucosal lymphocyte traffic might be programmed to localize to specific effector sites.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases post-trauma pneumonia versus enteral feeding. PN impairs murine immunoglobulin A (IgA) airway defenses and abrogates a normal IgA increase following injury. This work investigates the effect of type/route of nutrition on lung IgA and its transport protein, polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), after injury. METHODS Catheterized mice were randomized to Chow or PN for 5 days and sacrificed without injury (Chow: n = 12; PN n = 11), or 8 hours after laparotomy + neck incisions (Chow-injury: n = 11, PN-injury: n = 13). Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung IgA levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and lung pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS BAL IgA levels increased in Chow-injury versus PN-injury (P <.01) with no differences in pIgR. PN-injury tissue IgA levels decreased versus Chow (P <.01), Chow-injury (P <.01), and PN (P <.05). CONCLUSIONS PN impairs the airway IgA response to injury but not due to impaired IgA transport capacity/pIgR level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Migration of lymphocytes into and through the mucosal immune system depends upon adhesion molecules to attract circulating cells and chemokines to stimulate diapedesis into tissues. Decreased enteral stimulation significantly reduces mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) levels, an adhesion molecule critical for homing of T and B cells to Peyer's patches (PP), which reduces PP and intestinal T and B cells. We studied the effect of type and route of nutrition on tissue specific chemokines in PP (CXCL-12, -13 and CCL-19, -20 and -21), small intestine (SI; CCL-20, -25 and -28) and lung (CXCL-12, CCL-28). METHODS Intravenously cannulated male Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice were randomized to chow or parenteral nutrition (PN) for 5 days. PP, SI, and lung chemokine mRNA levels were measured using real-time qRT-polymerase chain reaction, and analyzed semiquantitatively by the DeltaDeltaCt method. Protein levels were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) techniques, and groups compared using Student's t-test. RESULTS PP CXCL13 protein significantly decreased, whereas CCL21 protein increased significantly in the parenterally fed group. Parenteral feeding significantly decreased SI CCL20 and CCL 25 protein levels. CCL28 decreased significantly in the SI and lung of intravenously fed animals. mRNA levels changed in the opposite direction (compared with protein) for all chemokines except CCL28. CONCLUSIONS Decreased enteral stimulation significantly alters key mucosal immune chemokine protein levels at multiple sites. In general, PN (and concomitant lack of enteral stimulation) results in decreased levels of chemokines that control lymphocyte migration within the mucosal immune system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) prevents pathogen adherence at mucosal surfaces to prevent infection. Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), located on the basolateral surface of mucosal cells, binds dimeric IgA produced by B cells with the cooperation of T cells in the lamina propria. This IgA-pIgR complex is transported apically, where it is exocytosed as secretory IgA to the mucosal surface. Our prior work shows that parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs both airway and small intestine mucosal immunity by reducing T and B cells and IgA levels. This work examines intestinal and respiratory tissue-specific pIgR responses to PN. METHODS Cannulated male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to Chow (n = 10) or PN (n = 10). After 5 days, animals were sacrificed and lavages obtained from the small intestine, lung (BAL = bronchoalveolar lavage), and nasal airways (NAL). Small intestine, lung, and nasal passage tissues were also collected. Lavage and tissue homogenate IgA levels were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS PN group SIL and NAL IgA levels dropped significantly compared with Chow. PN significantly reduced pIgR levels in the SI while no pIgR change was noted in nasal passages and lung pIgR actually increased with PN. Tissue homogenate IgA levels did not change with PN in the SI while levels in the nasal passage and lung decreased. CONCLUSIONS PN impairs airway mucosal immunity by reduction in IgA available for transport rather than via a reduction in pIgR levels. In the small intestine, diminished pIgR is implicated in the deterioration of antibody-mediated mucosal immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) directs lymphocyte migration into gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) through Peyer's patches (PPs). Parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs mucosal immunity by reducing PPs MAdCAM-1 expression, T and B cells in GALT, and intestinal and respiratory immunoglobulin (Ig) A levels. We previously showed that PN reduces lymphotoxin beta receptor blockade (LTbetaR) in PPs and intestine, and that stimulation with LTbetaR agonist antibodies reverses these defects. To confirm that LTbetaR regulates transcription of MAdCAM-1 message and more fully understand the effects of LTbetaR on MAdCAM-1 function within the mucosal immune system, we studied the effect of LTbetaR blockade with a chimeric LTbetaR Ig-fusion protein on MAdCAM-1 mRNA levels, PP lymphocyte mass and IgA levels in the intestinal and respiratory tracts. METHODS Mice were cannulated and killed 3 days after receiving chow + control Ig, chow + LTbetaR-Ig fusion protein (100 microg IV), or PN + control Ig. The PPs of half of the animals were processed for lymphocyte count, and the other half were processed for complementary DNA and subsequent polymerase chain reaction (PCR). mRNA levels of MAdCAM-1 were determined by real-time PCR; intestinal and respiratory IgA levels were measured by ELISA. RESULTS PN significantly reduced PP lymphocyte mass, MAdCAM-1 mRNA, and intestinal IgA. As anticipated, LTbetaR blockade significantly decreased PP cells and MAdCAM-1 mRNA, but not intestinal IgA because chow feeding was maintained. Both LTbetaR blockade and PN decreased nasal IgA, but not significantly. CONCLUSIONS LTbetaR blockade in chow animals significantly reduces transcription of MAdCAM-1 gene and PPs lymphocyte mass. These data implicate inadequate LTbetaR signaling as a major mechanism for decreased GALT cells with lack of enteral stimulation, and further establish the role of LTbetaR in the mucosal immune system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our understanding of the common mucosal immune system derives from animal studies. Antigen-sensitized lymphocytes in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) migrate via the blood to mucosal tissues to generate the mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT). In these sites, B cells differentiate into plasma cells and produce antigen-specific secretory IgA, the principal specific immune antiviral and antibacterial defense of moist mucosal surfaces. Responses to oral intake seem necessary to actively maintain this system in health. Experimentally, lack of enteral stimulation with parenteral feeding alters GALT and MALT size and function. These alterations disturb intestinal and extraintestinal mucosal immunity. METHODS This review is an overview of current and classical studies demonstrating the human mucosal immune system and interactions with nutrition. RESULTS Human evidence of the mucosal immune system exists, although most data are indirect. Gut stimulation after oral intake induces a generalized immune response in the human MALT through a mucosal-immune network. Examples include neonatal development of GALT influenced by enteral feeding, the presence of antigen-specific IgA and antigen-specific IgA-secreting plasma cells in distant mucosal effector sites such as the breast after gut luminal antigen exposure, and isolation of IgA-producing cells from circulating blood. CONCLUSIONS It is unlikely that clinical studies will ever completely define the effect of route of feeding in all patient populations. This may be possible, however, if investigators understand, define and characterize nutrition-dependent immunologic mechanisms, allowing clinicians to examine clinical responses to nutrition in specific patient populations. This might allow generation of new approaches to protect mucosal immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) in Peyer's patches (PP) is the gateway molecule for cellular migration into the mucosal immune system. Lack of enteral feeding during parenteral nutrition (PN) rapidly decreases PP MAdCAM-1, leading to drops in mucosal T and B cells and intestinal and respiratory IgA. We determined the molecular events associated with MAdCAM-1 mRNA and protein during PN (short and long term) and fasting (1 and 2 days). METHODS Experiment 1: Cannulated mice received PN for 8 hours (short-term PN, n = 6) or chow + saline (chow, n = 6). Experiment 2: Cannulated mice received PN (long-term PN, n = 4) or chow (n = 3) for 5 days. Experiment 3: Noncannulated chow mice were fasted for 1 and 2 days (n = 2/time). Total cellular RNA from the PP was quantified for MAdCAM-1 mRNA by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). MAdCAM-1 protein was measured by Western blot. RESULTS PN rapidly down-regulated MAdCAM-1 gene expression. After 8 hours of PN with lack of enteral feeding, MAdCAM-1 mRNA levels dropped 20% (0.8-fold vs chow, p > .05); 5 days of PN reduced MAd-CAM-1 levels 64% (0.34-fold vs chow, p < .05). PN reduced MAdCAM-1 protein levels by 30% (chow: 329 +/- 14 vs PN: 230 +/- 35, p < .05) after 5 days. Fasting of uncannulated mice decreased MAdCAM-1 mRNA levels by 16% (0.84-fold, p < .05) at day 1 and 30% (0.7-fold, p < .05) by day 2 compared with chow. CONCLUSIONS Both PN with lack of enteral feeding and fasting down-regulate MAdCAM-1 mRNA and protein levels in PP. The MAdCAM-1 changes are due to lack of enteral stimulation rather than toxic effects of PN.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN), with the absence of enteral nutrition, results in profound changes to both intestinal epithelial cells (EC) as well as the adjacent intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL) population. Intestinal EC are a rich source of IL-7, a critical factor to support the maintenance of several lymphoid tissues, and TPN results in marked EC changes. On this basis, we hypothesized that TPN would diminish EC-derived IL-7 expression and that this would contribute to the observed changes in the IEL population. Mice received enteral food and intravenous crystalloid solution (control group) or TPN. TPN administration significantly decreased EC-derived IL-7 expression, along with significant changes in IEL phenotype; decreased IEL proliferation; and resulted in a marked decrease in IEL numbers. To better determine the relevance of TPN-related changes in IL-7, TPN mice supplemented with exogenous IL-7 or mice allowed ad libitum feeding and treated with exogenous administration of anti-IL-7 receptor (IL-7R) antibody were also studied. Exogenous IL-7 administration in TPN mice significantly attenuated TPN-associated IEL changes, whereas blocking IL-7R in normal mice resulted in several similar changes in IEL to those observed with TPN. These findings suggest that a decrease in EC-derived IL-7 expression may be a contributing mechanism to account for the observed TPN-associated IEL changes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of parenteral nutrition (PN) on LTbetaR in gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), particularly the intestine and Peyer's patches (PP). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Lack of enteral stimulation with PN impairs mucosal immunity and reduces IgA levels through depression of GALT cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) and GALT specific adhesion molecules. We have shown that each is critical to intact mucosal immunity through effects on lymphocyte homing, IgA production, and resistance to antibacterial and antiviral immunity. IgA is the principal specific immunologic mucosal defense. LTbetaR stimulation controls production of IL-4, the adhesion molecule MAdCAM-1, and other key components of GALT, all of which are important in increasing IgA levels and maintaining mucosal defenses. METHODS Experiment 1: LTbetaR expression in intestine and PP was analyzed by Western blot after 5 days of chow, a complex enteral diet (CED), or PN. Diets were isocaloric and isonitrogenous except for chow. Experiment 2: After completing pilot experiments to determine the appropriate dose of the LTbetaR agonistic antibody, mice received chow, PN + 5 mug of anti-LTbetaR mAb (2 times/d, i.v.) or PN + isotype control antibody. PP lymphocytes and intestinal IgA levels were measured after 2 days. RESULTS Lack of enteral stimulation with PN significantly decreased LTbetaR expression in intestine and PP compared with chow and CED. LTbetaR stimulation with an agonistic anti-LTbetaR mAb significantly increased PP lymphocyte counts and intestinal IgA in PN fed-mice. CONCLUSIONS LTbetaR expression is critical for GALT control mechanisms and intact mucosal immunity. PN reduces LTbetaR expression, PP lymphocytes, and intestinal IgA production. Exogenous LTbetaR stimulation reverses PN-induced depression of gut mucosal immunity.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the changes in intestinal structure and function as well as the effect of enteral glutamine (GLN) supplement on the endotoxin translocation and immunological function in starved rats.
METHODS: Ninety male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: normal control group (n = 10), starved group (group A, n = 40) and GLN group (group B, n = 40). The rats were sacrificed 3, 5, 7 and 9 d after starvation, respectively. Blood samples were collected from portal vein for the detection of plasma endotoxin and tissue samples removed from ileocecum were observed under light microscope for morphological changes. A contrasting study on the expression of secretary immunoglobulin A (sIgA) and the numbers of CD4+, CD8+ T lymphocytes were also performed between control group and other groups by immunohistochemical staining method.
RESULTS: The atrophy of intestinal mucosa and villa were observed 3 d after starvation in group A, with the degeneration, necrosis, and shedding of partial mucosal epithelial cells. The changes were gradually deteriorated till the 9th day after starvation. Those pathological changes were lighter in group B than those in group A on the 3rd day after starvation and restored to normal on the 5th day. As the starvation time prolonged, the atrophy, degeneration and necrosis of the mucosal epithelial cells appeared again in group B, but were still lighter than those in group A. The levels of endotoxin were significantly higher 3, 5, 7 and 9 d after starvation in both group A and B than those in the controls, and there were also marked differences between group B and A (322.4 ± 65.1, 389.4 ± 32.6, 464.4 ± 76.6, 413.7 ± 67.2 EU/L vs 527.1 ± 74.9, 546.3 ± 65.7, 623.9 ± 85.9, 587.5 ± 140.8 EU/L, all P < 0.01). The expression of sIgA and the numbers CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in intestinal mucosa were reduced significantly in group A and B, in compared with those in the controls (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and there were higher levels of sIgA and CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in group B than those in group A (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: The structure of intestinal mucosa is damaged in the earlier stage of starvation in rats, accompanied by endotoxin translocation and dysfunction of intestinal mucosal immune barrier. Early enteral nourishment of glutamine is helpful for inhibiting endotoxin translocation and improve immune function of intestinal mucosa.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Much of the morbidity and mortality of severely burned patients is connected with hypermetabolism and catabolism with its accompanying impairment of wound healing and increased infection risks. In order to prevent the erosion of body mass, nutritional support and other strategies to prevent catabolism have become a major focus in the care of severely burned patients. RECENT FINDINGS Major themes discussed in recent literature are dealing with enteral versus parenteral nutrition and gastric versus duodenal feeding. The possibility of overfeeding is another important aspect of high calorie nutrition as commonly used in burned patients. Specific formulas for enteral nutrition for specific metabolic abnormalities are under evaluation as well as the role of anabolic and anticatabolic agents. SUMMARY From the clinical literature, total enteral nutrition starting as early as possible without any supplemental parenteral nutrition is the preferred feeding method for burned patients. Using a duodenal approach, especially in the early postburn phase, seems to be superior to gastric feeding. Administration of high calorie total enteral nutrition in any later septic phase should be critically reviewed due to possible impairment of splanchnic oxygen balance. Therefore, measurement of CO(2)-gap should be considered as a monitoring method during small bowel nutrition. The impact on the course of disease of supplements such as arginine, glutamine and vitamins as well as the impact of the use of anabolic and anticatabolic agents is not yet evident. Furthermore, the effect of insulin administration and low blood sugar regimes on wound healing and outcome in burned patients should be evaluated in future studies.

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
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Because of the hypothesis that enteral feeding prevents intestinal mucosal atrophy and bacterial translocation, when fasting or malnutrition is present, nutrition support by the enteral route is usually preferred, if it is available. If nutrients are provided only parenterally intestinal mucosal mass falls dramatically in rats, but the relevance of this finding to humans has not been documented. This article reviews findings in the last 2 years relating to this dilemma. RECENT FINDINGS Most work continues to be done in rats and pigs, two species that demonstrate mucosal atrophy with fasting. The earlier demonstration of effects of administration of hormones and glutamine have been corroborated, but proper controls for hormones (related peptides) or glutamine (most importantly glutamate) have usually not been included. In humans mucosal atrophy does not occur except modestly (approximately 10% decrease in thickness) in some reports during catabolic conditions, such as in critical-care units. Even so, no evidence for reversal by enteral feeding has as yet been provided. On the other hand, evidence for specific gene adaptation with or without mucosal atrophy has begun to appear in animals and humans. SUMMARY The focus on mucosal atrophy has obscured the adaptation that may occur simultaneously to minimize the atrophy. Attention to gene adaptation during fasting and malnutrition may provide evidence, in future, for appropriate therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
The role of secretory IgA in conferring cross-protective immunity was examined in polymeric (p)IgR knockout (KO) mice immunized intranasally with different inactivated vaccines prepared from A/PR/8/34 (H1N1), A/Yamagata/120/86 (H1N1), A/Beijing/262/95 (H1N1), and B/Ibaraki/2/85 viruses and infected with the A/PR/8/34 virus in the upper respiratory tract (RT)-restricting volume. In wild-type mice, immunization with A/PR/8/34 or its variant (A/Yamagata/120/86 and A/Beijing/262/95) vaccines conferred complete protection or partial cross-protection against infection, while the B-type virus vaccine failed to provide protection. The protection or cross-protection was accompanied by an increase in the nasal A/PR/8/34 hemagglutinin-reactive IgA concentration, which was estimated to be >30 times the serum IgA concentration and much higher than the nasal IgG concentration. In contrast, the blockade of transepithelial transport of dimeric IgA in pIgR-KO mice reduced the degree of protection or cross-protection, in parallel with the marked increase in serum IgA concentration and the decrease in nasal IgA concentration (about 20 and 0.3 times those in wild-type mice, respectively). The degree of the reduction of protection or cross-protection was moderately reversed by the low but non-negligible level of nasal IgA, transudates from the accumulated serum IgA. These results, together with the absence of the IgA-dependent cross-protection in the lower RT and the unaltered level of nasal or serum IgG in wild-type and pIgR-KO mice, confirm that the actively secreted IgA plays an important role in cross-protection against variant virus infection in the upper RT, which cannot be substituted by serum IgG.

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.
