Apart from its obvious agronomic interest in feeding billions of people worldwide,the porcine species represents an irreplaceable experimental model for intestinal physiologists and nutritionists.In this review,we give an overview on the fate of proteins that are not fully digested in the pig small intestine,and thus are transferred into the large intestine.In the large intestine,dietary and endogenous proteins are converted to peptides and amino acids(AA)by the action of bacterial proteases and peptidases.AA,which cannot,except in the neonatal period,be absorbed to any significant level by the colonocytes,are used by the intestinal microbes for protein synthesis and for the production of numerous metabolites.Of note,the production of the AA-derived metabolites greatly depends on the amount of undigested polysaccharides in the pig's diet.The effects of these AA-derived bacterial metabolites on the pig colonic epithelium have not yet been largely studied.However,the available data,performed on colonic mucosa,isolated colonic crypts and colonocytes,indicate that some of them,like ammonia,butyrate,acetate,hydrogen sulfide(H2S),and p-cresol are active either directly or indirectly on energy metabolism in colonic epithelial cells.Further studies in that area will certainly gain from the utilization of the pig colonic organoid model,which allows for disposal of functional epithelial unities.Such studies will contribute to a better understanding of the potential causal links between diet-induced changes in the luminal concentrations of these AA-derived bacterial metabolites and effects on the colon epithelial barrier function and water/electrolyte absorption.
