Table 3.

Effect of acid stability and redispersibility on gastrointestinal hormone profiles in rats after gastric infusion of 4 mL of the three different LEs (only parameters exhibiting effect sizes with 95% HPDs not including zero are listed in this table.

Hormone Blood Parameter Median (95% HPD) Emulsion effect
GLP-1 HPV ΔAmax31, pg/mL −57 (−87 to −28) Acid instability (LE3, LE4)
ΔAmax41, pg/mL −37 (−72 to −2) → lower GLP-1 peak
Δtmax43, min −68 (−142 to −21) Acid instability and no redispersibility (LE3)
→ delayed GLP-1 peak
ΔAOB31, pg/mL·h −155 (−232 to −25) Acid instability (LE3, LE4)
ΔAOB41, pg/mL·h −194 (−256 to −114) → less GLP-1 release

ΔAmax41, pg/mL −202 (−283 to −131) → lower PYY peak.
ΔAmax43, pg/mL 91 (30 to 162) No redispersibility (LE3) → further decrease in PYY peak
Δtmax31, min 60 (34 to 87) Acid instability and no redispersibility (LE3)
→ delayed PYY peak
Δtmax41, min −30 (−44 to −11) Acid instability and redispersibility (LE4)

BHB VC Δtmax31, min 35 (0.5 to 76) → delayed TAG and BHB peak

ΔAmax41, Δtmax41, ΔAOB41 are the effect sizes of the maximum amplitude (Amax), the time-to-maximum amplitude (tmax) and area over baseline (AOB) between the acid unstable LE4 and the acid stable LE1. All other effect sizes are encoded accordingly. 95% HPD: 95% highest posterior density interval. LE1: acid stable LE; LE3: non-redispersible acid unstable LE with solid fat, LE4: redispersible acid unstable LE, CCK: cholecystokinin, PYY: peptide YY, GLP-1: glucagon-like peptide 1, BHB: betahydroxybutyrate, HPV: hepatic portal vein, VC: vena cava.).
