Altered propionate metabolism contributes to tumor progression and aggressiveness
The alteration of metabolic pathways is a critical strategy for cancer cells to attain the traits necessary for metastasis in disease progression. Here, we find that dysregulation of propionate metabolism produces a pro-aggressive signature in breast and

Overexpression of GPR41 attenuated glucose production in propionate-induced bovine hepatocytes
Bovine liver mainly utilizes the propionate as a gluconeogenic substrate to synthesize the glucose. However, the mechanism underlying the regulatory effects of propionate on the glucose production in bovine hepatocytes remains less known.

Syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria in methanogenic systems
The mutual nutritional cooperation underpinning syntrophic propionate degradation provides a scant amount of energy for the microorganisms involved, so propionate degradation often acts as a bottleneck in methanogenic systems.

The molecular mechanism of propionate-regulating gluconeogenesis in bovine hepatocytes [PDF]
Objective Cows that are nursing get around 80% of their glucose from liver gluconeogenesis. Propionate, a significant precursor of liver gluconeogenesis, can regulate the key genes involved in hepatic gluconeogenesis expression, but its precise effects ...

Short-Chain Fatty Acid Propionate Protects From Hypertensive Cardiovascular Damage
Background: Arterial hypertension and its organ sequelae show characteristics of T cell–mediated inflammatory diseases. Experimental anti-inflammatory therapies have been shown to ameliorate hypertensive end-organ damage.

Genomic reconstruction of short-chain fatty acid production by the human gut microbiota
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) including acetate, formate, propionate, and butyrate are the end products of dietary fiber and host glycan fermentation by the human gut microbiota (HGM).
