Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in host/microbial intestinal (postprandial) fructose kinetics (by 13C incorporation in glucose and ethanol as well as other metabolites) in small intestinal fluid as well as plasma, urine and breath samples (whole body metabolism) and establish the role of (small) intestinal luminal pH (which is increased upon proton pump inhibitor for 4 weeks of oral omeprazole 2dd 40mg) in biopsy proven MASLD/MASH subjects versus healthy (BMI

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Differences in expression of small intestinal biopsy RNAseq based genes (including host alcohol dehydrogenase genes) before and after omeprazole - Changes in oral, small intestinal as well as in fecal microbiota including bacterial alcohol dehydrogenase genes and intestinal pH + alcohol dehydrogenase in feces (since elevated ADH in feces is a measure for increased ethanol exposure) - Changes in Dietary intake between two vistis (by online Eetmeter at week 0 and week 3) - To model differences in 13C- fructose whole body handling between the healthy and MASLD/MASH patients by tracking the label in metabolites (mainly glucose) in peripheral circulation, breathe, and feces and urine for excretion.
