Abstrakt: | Background: Prebiotic galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) are novel enhancers of iron absorption from ferrous fumarate (FeFum). However, the mechanism(s) of this effect, and whether it occurs in the proximal or distal gut, are uncertain. Objectives: We studied: 1) in vitro, the effect of GOS on iron solubility and dialyzability from FeFum; 2) in volunteers, the absorption kinetics of FeFum given with and without GOS using stable isotope appearance curves (SIAC). Methods: We measured iron solubility at various pH and dialyzability from FeFum with and without GOS. In crossover design, iron-depleted women [n = 11; median serum ferritin (SF) 15.2; IQR: 12.6-21.2 µg/L] received 2 14-mg iron doses as labeled (57Fe,58Fe) FeFum 14 d apart with and without 15 g GOS in randomly assigned order. Multiple blood samples were collected over a time period of 24 h and 14 d later to determine SIAC and fractional iron absorption (FIA), respectively. SIAC data were fitted using nonlinear mixed effects modeling to a 1-compartment model with first-order absorption, and AUC and time of peak serum isotope concentration (tmax) were calculated. Results: Iron dialyzability was 75% higher with GOS (P < 0.001) and iron solubility was more than doubled at pH 4 and 6 with GOS [both P < 0.001]. Mean ± SD AUC (5830.9 ± 4717.3 μg/min with GOS, 4454.0 ± 3260.7 μg/min for control), and median (IQR) FIA (20.3% (8.6%-38.7%) with GOS, and 15.6% (10.6%-24.8% f)or control) were not different with compared to without GOS (P = 0.064; P = 0.080). Mean ±SD tmax was not altered with GOS (3.08 ± 0.47 h with GOS; 2.80 ±0.50 h for control; P = 0.096). Iron bioavailability significantly increased with decreasing SF and this effect was significantly enhanced by GOS (P = 0.037, interaction of GOS with SF). Conclusions: GOS increases iron solubility from FeFum at physiological pH characteristic of the proximal duodenum. The absorption kinetics in vivo are consistent with effects on iron absorption in the proximal, rather than distal, parts of the gut. There was no overall effect of GOS on FIA in vivo, but the interaction of GOS and SF on FIA might benefit iron-deficient women, an effect potentially mediated by the higher solubility shown in vitro. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03996421. (© The Author(s) 2021. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the American Society for Nutrition.) |
