Evidence for proton-pump inhibitor (PPI)-associated dysbiosis in metabolically unhealthy obesity
Obesity adversely impacts millions of American adults by predisposing them to significant health risks and further complications. Obesity is differentiated into two groups: metabolically healthy and metabolically unhealthy.

Butyrate protects endothelial function through PPARδ/miR-181b signaling
Reports of the beneficial roles of butyrate in cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and ischemic stroke, are becoming increasingly abundant. However, the mechanisms of its bioactivities remain largely unknown.

Changes in dominant groups of the gut microbiota do not explain cereal-fiber induced improvement of whole-body insulin sensitivity [PDF]
Background Diets high in cereal-fiber (HCF) have been shown to improve whole-body insulin sensitivity. In search for potential mechanisms we hypothesized that a supplemented HCF-diet influences the composition of the human gut microbiota and/or ...

Butyrate, a fermentation product of the large bowel microflora, is potentially protective against the development of colorectal cancer. In vitro, butyrate has been shown to induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation in numerous cancer cell lines ...

Butyrate inhibits histone deacetylase 2 expression to alleviate liver fibrosis in biliary atresia
Background Previous studies have found a reduction in butyrate-producing bacteria in the gut microbiota of infants with biliary atresia (BA). Butyrate is also an important inhibitor of histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2).

Microbiota changes after butyrate.
P values for the changes in fecal microbiota between the baseline and the end of the 3-week follow-up (time3). Data are shown for the group with the standard salt substitution (treatment_standard; 0 weeks vs 3 weeks), and for the group attending the ...

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Butyrate is formed in the gut during bacterial fermentation of dietary fiber and is attributed numerous beneficial effects on the host metabolism. We aimed to develop a method for the assessment of functional capacity of gut microbiota butyrate synthesis

Proof-of-Principle Study Suggesting Potential Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Butyrate and Propionate in Periodontal Cells [PDF]
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are potent immune modulators present in the gingival crevicular fluid. It is therefore likely that SCFAs exert a role in periodontal health and disease.
