Résumé
Supplementing diet with citrulline has proved an efficient means of preserving nitrogen balance and improving nutritional status after massive intestinal resection. The aim of this study was to model the action of citrulline in gut-resected rats using a dose-ranging study focused on skeletal muscle nitrogen homeostasis. Forty-six rats were randomly assigned to one of the following groups: citrulline 0.5 g·kg·d There was a significant dose-dependent association between rat weight and citrulline dose up to 2.5 g·kg·d Citrulline promotes body weight gain, preserves muscle trophicity, and enhances intestinal adaptation in a dose-dependent manner in a model of resected rats.
