Portal hyperglutamatemia after dietary supplementation with monosodium glutamate in pigs.

Abstract:

:The aim of the present work was to examine in pigs the effect of a dietary supplementation with the flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate (MSG) on intestinal amino acid metabolism. For this purpose, pigs weighing 60 +/- 2 kg received a standard meal twice a day for 1 week, supplemented with either 10 g MSG per meal or, as control experiments, an isonitrogenous amount of glycine together with an equal amount of sodium in the form of NaCl, the animals being their own control in all experiments. At the end of this period, pigs received a MSG or glycine-NaCl-supplemented meal and samples of portal and arterial blood were collected for amino acid analysis in plasma. The results demonstrate after MSG supplementation rapid significant increases in glutamate concentration in the portal and arterial blood plasma after a test meal which resulted in a positive portoarterial difference. In comparison, after glycine-NaCl supplementation, glutamate concentrations were almost identical in portal and arterial plasma. Furthermore, significant increased aspartate concentration in the portal blood plasma was observed after MSG supplementation when compared with control experiments. When enterocytes were isolated at the end of the supplementation period from the jejunum and examined for their metabolic capacities towards L-glutamate and L-glutamine, it was found that metabolism did not differ according to the supplement used, with glutamate and glutamine being oxidized and transaminated at a similar level. It is concluded that the portal hyperglutamatemia observed shortly after the ingestion of a MSG- supplemented meal is likely due to the saturation of the intestinal capacity to metabolize glutamate with no measurable adaptation of the metabolic pathways controlling glutamate metabolism in enterocytes.
