Postprandial hypotension (PPH) is an important and under-recognised disorder resulting from inadequate compensatory cardiovascular responses to meal-induced splanchnic blood pooling. Current approaches to management are suboptimal. Recent studies have established that the cardiovascular response to a meal is modulated profoundly by gastrointestinal factors, including the type and caloric content of ingested meals, rate of gastric emptying, and small intestinal transit and absorption of nutrients. The small intestine represents the major site of nutrient-gut interactions and associated neurohormonal responses, including secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide and somatostatin, which exert pleotropic actions relevant to the postprandial haemodynamic profile. This review summarises knowledge relating to the role of these gut peptides in the cardiovascular response to a meal and their potential application to the management of PPH.

The Brain

To investigate the role of serotonin 2C receptors (2CR), which are expressed only in the central nervous system, in the satiating actions of the gut peptides CCK and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), we examined 1) the effect of null mutations of serotonin 2CR (2CR KO) on the eating-inhibitory potencies of dark-onset intraperitoneal injections of 0.9, 1.7, or 3.5 nmol/kg (1, 2, or 4 μg/kg) CCK and 100, 200, and 400 nmol/kg (33, 66, or 132 μg/kg) GLP-1, and 2) the effects of intraperitoneal injections of 1.7 nmol//kg CCK and 100 nmol/kg GLP-1 on neuronal activation in the brain, as measured by c-Fos expression. All CCK and GLP-1 doses decreased 30-min food intake in wild-type (WT) mice, but none of them did in 2CR KO mice. CCK increased the number of cells expressing c-Fos in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) of WT, but not 2CR KO mice. CCK induced similar degrees of c-Fos expression in the paraventricular (PVN) and arcuate (Arc) nuclei of the hypothalamus of both genotypes. GLP-1, on the other hand, increased c-Fos expression similarly in the NTS of both genotypes and increased c-Fos expression more in the PVN and Arc of 2CR KO mice, but not WT mice. These results indicate that serotonin signaling via serotonin 2CR is necessary for the full satiating effects of CCK and GLP-1. In addition, they suggest that the satiating effects of the two peptides are mediated by different neural mechanisms.

Insulinotropic Peptide

In addition to the previously developed recombinant modified human glucagon-like peptide 1 (rmglp1, Glypin), a recombinant modified human glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (RMGIP) has been obtained. A new universal reverse-phase HPLC technique has been proposed allowing quantitative analysis of rmGlp1 and rmGip separately and as part of a two-component preparation. The data show that the design of recombinant human rmGip according to the Glypine formula makes it possible to produce one-component and two-component preparations containing various rmGip and rmGlp1 protein ratios ranging from 1:0 to 20:1, using cell biomass samples mixed in predetermined proportions. Studies of human rmGip activity in a mouse model revealed reduced specific activity and signs of weak antagonistic effects. In this regard, there is a need for further study of human rmGip activity in a mouse model, including the use of alternative mouse or rat rmGip. type 2 diabetes mellitus; two-component drug, glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide, glucagon-like peptide-1 The work was supported by the Internal Grant from National Research Center Kurchatov Institute.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the nervous and humoral pathways involved in short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-induced ileal brake in conscious pigs. The role of extrinsic ileal innervation was evaluated after SCFA infusion in innervated and denervated Babkin's ileal loops, and gastric motility was measured with strain gauges. Peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) concentrations were evaluated in both situations. The possible involvement of absorbed SCFA was tested by using intravenous infusion of acetate. Ileal SCFA infusion in the intact terminal ileum decreased the amplitude of distal and terminal antral contractions (33 ± 1.2 vs. 49 ± 1.2% of the maximal amplitude recorded before infusion) and increased their frequency (1.5 ± 0.11 vs. 1.3 ± 0.10/min). Similar effects were observed during SCFA infusion in ileal innervated and denervated loops (amplitude, 35 ± 1.0 and 34 ± 0.8 vs. 47 ± 1.3 and 43 ± 1.2%; frequency, 1.4 ± 0.07 and 1.6 ± 0.06 vs. 1.1 ± 0.14 and 1.0 ± 0.12/min). Intravenous acetate did not modify the amplitude and frequency of antral contractions. PYY but not GLP-1 concentrations were increased during SCFA infusion in innervated and denervated loops. In conclusion, ileal SCFA inhibit distal gastric motility by a humoral pathway involving the release of an inhibiting factor, which is likely PYY.

Intraduodenal Administration

Bitter tastants are recently introduced as potential hunger-suppressive compounds, the so-called "Bitter pill". However, the literature about bitter administration lacks consistency in methods and findings. We want to test whether hunger ratings and hormone plasma levels are affected by: 1) the site of administration: intragastrically (IG) or intraduodenally (ID), 2) the bitter tastant itself, quinine hydrochloride (QHCl) or denatonium benzoate (DB), and 3) the timing of infusion. Therefore, 14 healthy, female volunteers participated in a randomized, placebo-controlled six-visit crossover study. After an overnight fast, DB (1µmol/kg), QHCl (10µmol/kg) or placebo were given IG or ID via a nasogastric feeding tube. Blood samples were taken 10 min prior to administration and every 10 min after administration for a period of 2 hours. Hunger was rated at the same timepoints on a visual analogue scale (VAS). ID bitter administration did not affect hunger sensations, motilin or acyl-ghrelin release compared with its PLC infusion. IG QHCl infusion tended to suppress hunger increase, especially between 50-70 minutes after infusion, simultaneously with reduced motilin values. Here, acyl-ghrelin was not affected. IG DB did not affect hunger or motilin, however acyl-ghrelin levels were reduced 50-70 minutes after infusion. Plasma values of glucagon-like peptide 1 and cholecystokinin were too low to be properly detected or to have any physiological relevance. In conclusion, bitter tastants should be infused into the stomach to reduce hunger sensations and orexigenic gut peptides. QHCl has the best potential to reduce hunger sensations, and it should be infused 60 minutes before food intake.
