Titolo Progetto: STUDIO DI PARAMETRI CLINICI E CLINICOPATOLOGICI UTILI NELLA GESTIONE CLINICA DELLE EPATOPATIE CRONICHE DEL CANE
Abstract: Le epatopatie croniche nel paziente umano sono caratterizzate da numerose alterazioni metaboliche e nutrizionali di cui molte legate alla relazione fegato-intestino (liver-gut axis) con alterazioni della fisiologia biliare e del metabolismo degli acidi biliari, legati in molti casi alla disbiosi intestinale. Nel cane enteropatico è stato dimostrato un ridotto riassorbimento di acidi biliari e riduzione degli acidi biliari fecali secondari. Non ci sono al momento studi specifici su tali alterazioni nel paziente epatopatico. Le ipotesi sono che il cane epatopatico cronico possa presentare concomitante disbiosi intestinale con alterazione degli acidi biliari e che l’alterazione del liver gut-axis possa condizionare stato nutrizionale e metabolico. A tale scopo verrà valutato il microbiota intestinale e gli acidi biliari fecali di cani con epatopatie croniche e monitorato lo stato nutrizionale ed eventuali alterazioni metaboliche quali profilo protidico, aminoacidico e vitaminico sierico.
Project title: CLINICAL AND CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL MARKERS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF CANINE CHRONIC HEPATOPATHIES
Abstract: Human chronic hepatopathies results in important metabolic and nutritional alteration. Many of these are related to the liver-gut reciprocal interaction (liver-gut axis). Alteration in biliary physiology and biliary acids metabolism are recognized in human patients presenting chronic enteropathies and dysbiosis. Dogs with chronic enteropathies showed a decreased biliary acids reabsorption and lower fecal secondary biliary acids. Those aspects are not well characterized in canine hepatopathic patients. We suppose that canine patients with chronic hepatopathies may present intestinal dysbiosis and fecal biliary acids alteration. In those patients, the liver-gut axis could influence the nutritional and metabolic situation. For this purpose, we want to assess intestinal microbiota and fecal biliary acids in hepatopathic dogs and to monitor nutritional condition and metabolic alteration such as serum proteins, amminoacids and vitamins.
