    • Abstract:
      The gut plays a vital role in critical illness, and alterations in the gut structure and function have been reported in endotoxemia and sepsis models. Previously, we have demonstrated a novel link between the diet-induced alteration of the gut microbiome with cellulose and improved outcomes in sepsis. As compared to mice receiving basal fiber (BF) diet, mice that were fed a non-fermentable high fiber (HF) diet demonstrated significant improvement in survival and decreased organ injury in both cecal-ligation and puncture (CLP) and endotoxin sepsis models. To understand if the benefit conferred by HF diet extends to the gut structure and function, we hypothesized that HF diet would be associated with a reduction in sepsis-induced gut epithelial loss and permeability in mice. We demonstrate that the use of dietary cellulose decreased LPS-mediated intestinal hyperpermeability and protected the gut from apoptosis. Furthermore, we noted a significant increase in epithelial cell proliferation, as evidenced by an increase in the percentage of bromodeoxyuridine-positive cells in HF fed mice as compared to BF fed mice. Thus, the use of HF diet is a simple and effective tool that confers benefit in a murine model of sepsis, and understanding the intricate relationship between the epithelial barrier, gut microbiota, and diet will open-up additional therapeutic avenues for the treatment of gut dysfunction in critical illness.
