| Abstract: | Remodeling of Intestinal properties and hypersensitivity of intestinal afferents to mechanical stimulation were previously demonstrated in a fasting rat model. Other studies investigated the association between mechanical and histological remodeling during fasting. This study aimed to further explore the relationship between the jejunal remodeling and intestinal afferent hypersensitivity by combining afferent nerve recordings with histological and mechanical data. Eight male Sprague Dawley rats had no access to food for 7 days (Fasting group). Seven male rats served as controls (Control group). Jejunal segments were studied in vitro in an organ bath for analysis of afferent signaling and for analysis of mechanical and histomorphological parameters. Correlation analyses were done to analyze association between nerve activity (spike rate increase ratio, SRIR) at distension levels of 20, 40 and 80 cmH2O and mechanical stress and histomorphological changes of the jejunal segments. Compared with the Control group, the main findings in jejunal segments in the Fasting group were (1) Most histomorphometry parameters were reduced (P < 0.05–P < 0.001), (2) SRIR values were higher (P < 0.001), (3) The relative numbers of intermuscular and submucosal neurons were increased (P < 0.05–P < 0.01), and (4) SRIR was negatively correlated with intestinal wall thickness, circumferential muscle layer thickness and positively correlated with the inner residual strain, the number of neurons, and the mechanical stress. In conclusion, the fasting-induced histomorphological remodeling (reduced wall thickness and increased relative number of neurons) and biomechanical remodeling (residual strain changes and high stress level) of the intestine in fasting rats were associated with hypersensitivity of intestinal afferents. Afferent hypersensitivity appears to be dependent on stress rather than on strain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
