Impairment of Pulmonary Macrphage Function with Total Parenteral Nutrition

Abstract: Defective host pulmonary antimicrobial immune responses during TPN are associated with intestinal bacterial translocation, and may explain increased infectious complications.

“…2,3,14 Bacterial translocation, microaspiration of pathogens from the gastrointestinal tract, impaired pulmonary macrophage function, and increased gut permeability have been postulated to be responsible for this susceptibility during IV-TPN feeding. [15][16][17][18][19] Our laboratory has proposed a cogent mechanism for the reduced pneumonia rate in enterally fed patients compared with parenterally fed patients: namely, preservation of IgA-mediated mucosal immunity. 4,5,20 Mucosal immunity, which constitutes approximately 50% of total body immunity, is maintained through complex interactions between T cells, B cells, cytokines, and adhesin molecules.…”

“…9 TPN or TEN using ED also produces local and systemic immunologic impairment, including degenerative changes within the gut-associated lymphoid tissue and defective host pulmonary antimicrobial immune responses. 12,13 The immunologic impairments cause the infectious complications after BT to become more severe. Therefore, breakdown of the mucosal barrier due to TPN sometimes results in increased infection, which leads to death.…”

“…II]. TPN solution contained a final concen tration of 4.25% protein-enriched BCAA and 25% glu cose, in addition to electrolytes and multivitamins [10], The TPN solution contained 1,233 kcal/1 and the nonprotein caloriemitrogen ratio was 147:1 keal/g N. The rats received 48-60 ml of the TPN solution ( aver age 250 keal/kg) daily [10,11].…”
