“…The greater mass removal of both toxins in non-anuric PD patients is most probably the result of higher protein intake, which is suggested by the greater mass removal of urea nitrogen in those patients. It is well established that a high protein diet fosters bacterial protein fermentation in the large intestine, resulting in increased generation of p-cresol and indole, the precursors of PCS and IndS (25)(26)(27). Our findings are consistent with data from a large cross-sectional study showing that RRF in continuous ambulatory PD patients is correlated with dietary protein intake, independent of dialysis adequacy (28).…”

“…The production of both compounds therefore depends on the delivery of amino acids to the colon and on the activity of colonic bacteria, which may ascend to the small bowel in uremic patients (16). Studies in normal individuals have shown that the production of p-cresol can be increased by dietary protein loading and medications that impair protein digestion and decreased by maneuvers that increase the delivery of carbohydrates and fiber to the colon (13,(17)(18)(19)(20), but we could not identify differences in protein intake, medications, or bowel history that would account for the lower indican and PCS removal observed in PD patients without residual renal function. Tracer studies may ultimately be required to identify the cause of reduced indican and PCS appearance in these patients.…”

“…Plausible explanations of why 292 increased red meat intake may contribute to IBD may 293 include increased delivery of amino acids and heme to the 294 colon where they undergo fermentation and metabolism by 295 the colonic microbiota [34], which results in the generation 296 of potentially toxic substances such as ammonia, amines, 297 N-nitroso compounds, phenols, cresols and hydrogen sul-298 fide [35,36]. Increased dietary heme from haemoglobin in 299 red meat can form reactive oxygen species, [37] Sesink 300 et al [38] showed that dietary heme increases luminal 301 cytotoxicity which causes damage to the colonic 302 epithelium.…”
