Beyond the Gut: Unveiling Butyrate’s Global Health Impact Through Gut Health and Dysbiosis-Related Conditions: A Narrative Review

Nutrients
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), mainly produced by gut microbiota through the fermentation process of dietary fibers and proteins, are crucial to human health, with butyrate, a famous four-carbon SCFA, standing out for its inevitably regulatory impact ...

Butyrate Supplementation at High Concentrations Alters Enteric Bacterial Communities and Reduces Intestinal Inflammation in Mice Infected with Citrobacter rodentium

mSphere, 2017
Butyrate is a short-chain fatty acid by-product of the microbial fermentation of dietary fermentable materials in the large intestine; it is the main energy source for enterocyte regeneration, modulates the enteric microbial community, and contributes to

An efficient system for intestinal on-site butyrate production using novel microbiome-derived esterases

Journal of Biological Engineering, 2021
Short-chain fatty acids, especially butyrate, play beneficial roles in sustaining gastrointestinal health. However, due to limitations associated with direct consumption of butyrate, there has been interest in using prodrugs of butyrate. Tributyrin (TB),

Comparative prebiotic activity of mixtures of cereal grain polysaccharides [PDF]

, 2019
The main components of the non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) fraction of wheat flour are arabinoxylan (AX) and β-glucan. These are also present in other cereal grains, but their proportions vary with AX being the major component in wheat and rye and β ...

H2 generated by fermentation in the human gut microbiome influences metabolism and competitive fitness of gut butyrate producers

Microbiome, 2023
Background Hydrogen gas (H_2) is a common product of carbohydrate fermentation in the human gut microbiome and its accumulation can modulate fermentation.

A reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction system for evaluating intestinal butyrate production by fecal bacteria

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Intestinal butyrate is key in maintaining host health. As an indicator of butyrate production, the fecal butyrate concentration is used for assessing health status; however, it may not be a suitable marker as it only accounts for residual fecal butyrate ...

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

Scientific 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 ...
