Bifidobacteria and Butyrate-Producing Colon Bacteria: Importance and Strategies for Their Stimulation in the Human Gut

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
With the increasing amount of evidence linking certain disorders of the human body to a disturbed gut microbiota, there is a growing interest for compounds that positively influence its composition and activity through diet.

Butyric Acid Is Synthesized by Piglets [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2000
We hypothesized that there is no synthesis of butyric acid within organs or tissues not drained by the portal vein (PV). Two experiments were performed. In six piglets, the colonic vasculature was clamped (n = 4) or the entire colon resected while [1-13C]-butyric acid (99% enriched) was infused into a jejunal vein for 120 min; 13C enrichment of butyric

Butyrate: A Double-Edged Sword for Health?

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2018
Butyrate, a four-carbon short-chain fatty acid, is produced through microbial fermentation of dietary fibers in the lower intestinal tract. Endogenous butyrate production, delivery, and absorption by colonocytes have been well documented. Butyrate exerts

Make (No) Bones about Butyrate [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2018
In this issue of Immunity, Tyagi et al. (2018) report that the microbial metabolite butyrate orchestrates the interplay between regulatory T cells and CD8+ T cells, increasing Wnt signaling, and promoting bone formation in young mice.

Encapsulation of butyrate using low-alkali konjac gel induced by ethanol for colonic delivery

open access: yesFood Hydrocolloids for Health, 2021
Butyrate administrated in proper concentration is beneficial to the human colon environment. However, the delivery of butyrate to the colon is quite difficult as butyrate could be easily absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract.

Butyrate reduces cellular magnesium absorption independently of metabolic regulation in Caco-2 human colon cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Digestion of dietary fibers by gut bacteria has been shown to stimulate intestinal mineral absorption [e.g., calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+)]. Although it has been suggested that local pH and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) concentrations determine ...

Dietary Protected Butyrate Supplementation of Broilers Modulates Intestinal Tight Junction Proteins and Stimulates Endogenous Production of Short Chain Fatty Acids in the Caecum

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Short chain fatty acid (SCFA) butyrate has various beneficial effects on the gut microbiota as well as on the overall health status and metabolism of the host organism.

Butyrate and the Fine-Tuning of Colonic Homeostasis: Implication for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
This review describes current evidence supporting butyrate impact in the homeostatic regulation of the digestive ecosystem in health and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs). Butyrate is mainly produced by bacteria from the Firmicutes phylum. It stimulates

Butyrate reverses ferroptosis resistance in colorectal cancer by inducing c-Fos-dependent xCT suppression

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2023
Ferroptosis has emerged to be a promising approach in cancer therapies; however, colorectal cancer (CRC) is relatively insensitive to ferroptosis. Exactly how the gut microenvironment impacts the ferroptotic sensitivity of CRC remains unknown. Herein, by

Proteomics unveil a central role for peroxisomes in butyrate assimilation of the heterotrophic Chlorophyte alga Polytomella sp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Volatile fatty acids found in effluents of the dark fermentation of biowastes can be used for mixotrophic growth of microalgae, improving productivity and reducing the cost of the feedstock.
