Whole body protein synthesis and catabolism in septic man

CL Long, M Jeevanandam, BM Kim and JM Kinney

The protein catabolic response to sepsis has been measured in three patients and in two normal subjects using a pulse injections of L- [15N]alanine. In addition, the urea kinetics were measured using a pulse administration of [15N]urea. Several nitrogen models which simulated the metabolic pathways of nitrogen-labeled compounds were tried. Best curve fits and acceptable confidence limits were obtained with a four-pool model containing two metabolic pools and two urea pools. Using this model, synthesis and catabolism rates were calculated for a fast and slow protein turnover pool. The mean daily total protein synthesis rate in the normal was 3.695 g/kg compared to 4.479 g/kg in sepsis. Because all subjects were in negative nitrogen balance, the mean total protein catabolic rate in the normal was 4.379 g/kg, compared to 5.298 g/kg in sepsis. These data suggest an increase in both protein synthesis and catabolism during sepsis.
