To determine whether exogenous glutamine affects whole body glutamine metabolism, preliminary experiments were performed to verify that L-[1-13C]-, L-[U-14C]-, and L-[3,4-3H]glutamine given simultaneously by vein provided similar estimates of glutamine appearance rates [Ra; 355 +/- 24, 373 +/- 19, and 393 +/- 24 (SE) mumol.kg-1.h-1, respectively, P = NS] in six healthy men; glutamine oxidation accounted for 32 +/- 3 and 51 +/- 5% (P < 0.01) of glutamine Ra when it was measured using L-[U-14C]- and L-[1-13C]glutamine, respectively. Five subjects received two 5-h intravenous infusions of L-[3,4-3H]glutamine and a simultaneous nasogastric infusion of L-[1-13C]glutamine on 2 separate days in the postabsorptive state, along with saline on 1 day and natural L-glutamine (856 +/- 45 mumol.kg-1.h-1) on another day in a randomized order. Splanchnic glutamine extraction (determined from [13C]glutamine appearance into systemic blood) reached 74 +/- 4 and 53 +/- 5% during the enteral infusion of tracer alone and in combination with a large load of glutamine, respectively. Glutamine infusion was associated with increased plasma glutamine concentration (from 630 +/- 50 to 1,297 +/- 75 microM), Ra (from 258 +/- 20 to 589 +/- 45 mumol.kg-1.h-1), and oxidation (from 179 +/- 20 to 477 +/- 47 mumol.kg-1.h-1, all P < 0.01), no change in glutamine release from proteolysis, and a decline in glutamine de novo synthesis (from 156 +/- 15 to 93 +/- 13 mumol.kg-1.h-1).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
