During the anabolic response associated with inflammation, mucin synthesis and colonic
protection may be compromised by the limited availability of specific amino acids. We
therefore determined the effect of dietary amino acid supplementation on the microbiota,
mucin status, and mucosal damage in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-treated rats. From 8 d
before to 28 d after colitis induction, male Sprague-Dawley rats (10 mo old, n= 8/group) were
fed a control diet supplemented or not with 2 different doses of an amino acid cocktail …
