ABSTRACT

Cow′s milk protein allergy is common in infants, which is an abnormal immune reaction caused by the imbalance of intestinal immune tolerance system.Butyrates, the fermentation product of intestinal anaerobic bacteria, can be used as a histone deacetylase inhibitors and a ligand of G protein-coupled receptors to regulate intestinal innate immunity and adaptive immune function, thereby inducing intestinal immune tolerance in children with cow′s milk protein allergy, which has potential clinical therapeutic value for cow′s milk protein allergy.However, this theory is still only based on the exploration of mechanisms at the cellular and animal levels and has not been applied in the clinic.This article reviews the intestinal immune mechanism of cow′s milk protein allergy, the anabolism of butyrates and the important role of butyrates in intestinal immune tolerance of cow′s milk protein allergy, aiming to lay a theoretical foundation for further clinical application of butyrate-induced intestinal immune tolerance of cow′s milk protein allergy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the role of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) in reduction of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by sodium butyrate in mice.Methods:Twenty-four SPF healthy adult male C57BL/6 mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 22-25 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=6 each) by the random number table method: sham operation group (S group), intestinal I/R group (I/R group), intestinal I/R + sodium butyrate group (I/R+ SB group), and intestinal I/R + ITSA-1+ sodium butyrate group (I/R+ I+ SB group). The model of intestinal I/R injury was established by clipping superior mesenteric artery for 45 min followed by 120 min of reperfusion in anesthetized animals.In I/R+ I+ SB group, the HDACs activator ITSA-1 0.5 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 6, 3 and 1 days before ischemia.Sodium butyrate 500 mg/kg was given by intragastric administration every day one week before ischemia in I/R+ SB group and I/R+ I+ SB group, and the equal volume of normal saline was given in S group and I/R group.At 120 min of reperfusion, the mice were sacrificed and their small intestine tissues were obtained.The levels of diamine oxidase (DAO) in serum and intestinal tissues were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The pathological changes of small intestinal tissues were observed with a light microscope, and intestinal damage was assessed and scored according to Chiu.The expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅱ (LC3 Ⅱ), P62 and HDAC6 was determined by Western blot.The contents of histone H3 (H3) and acetylated histone H3 (Ac-H3) in small intestinal tissues were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:Compared with S group, the Chiu′s score, levels of DAO in serum and small intestinal tissues were significantly increased, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ and HDAC6 was up-regulated, P62 expression was down-regulated, H3 content was increased, and AC-H3 content was decreased in I/R group ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group, the Chiu′s score, levels of DAO in serum and small intestinal tissues were significantly decreased, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ and HDAC6 was down-regulated, P62 expression was up-regulated, H3 content was decreased, and AC-H3 content was increased in I/R+ SB group ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R+ SB group, the Chiu′s score and levels of DAO in serum and small intestinal tissues were significantly increased, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ and HDAC6 was up-regulated, P62 expression was down-regulated, H3 content was increased, and AC-H3 content was decreased in I/R+ I+ SB group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Sodium butyrate can alleviate intestinal I/R injury by inhibition of HDAC6 activity in mice, and the mechanism may be related to inhibition of autophagy and promotion of H3 acetylation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the role of histone deacetylase (HDAC) in sodium butyrate-induced reduction of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice and the relationship with oxidative stress and cell apoptosis.Methods:Twenty-four SPF healthy male C57BL mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 22-25 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=6 each) according to the random number table method: sham operation group (S group), intestinal I/R group (IR group), intestinal I/R+ sodium butyrate group (IN group) and intestinal I/R+ ITSA-1+ sodium butyrate group (INI group). In IR, IN and INI groups, the superior mesenteric artery was clamped for 45 min, followed by reperfusion for 2 h to prepare the model of intestinal I/R injury, while the superior mesenteric artery was only isolated without ligation in S group.One week before preparation of the model, sodium butyrate 500 mg/kg was intragastrically administered once a day in IN group and INI group, the HDAC activator ITSA-1 0.5 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected three times a week in INI group, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in the other groups.The mice were sacrificed at 2 h of reperfusion and small intestinal tissues were obtained for microscopic examination of the pathological changes which were assessed using Chiu′s score and for determination of the content of MDA (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and expression of cleaved caspase-3 (by Western blot). Results:Compared with S group, Chiu′s score was significantly increased, and the expression of cleaved caspase-3 was up-regulated in IR, IN and INI groups, the content of MDA in small intestinal tissues was significantly increased in IR and INI groups ( P<0.05). Compared with IR group, Chiu′s score was significantly decreased in IN and INI groups, and the content of MDA was significantly decreased, and the expression of cleaved caspase-3 was down-regulated in IN group ( P<0.05). Compared with IN group, Chiu′s score and content of MDA were significantly increased, and the expression of cleaved caspase-3 was up-regulated in INI group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:HDAC is involved in sodium butyrate-induced reduction of intestinal I/R injury in mice, which is related to the inhibition of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis.

ABSTRACT

Butyrate is the main product of colonic and cecal microbiota in the fermentation of dietary fiber and some amino acids, which can reduce intestinal inflammation, regulate the balance of intestinal flora, and improve intestinal mucosal barrier. In recent years, a large number of studies at home and abroad have shown that butyrate plays a role in intestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury, colorectal cancer and short bowel syndrome. This article reviewed the research progress on role and mechanism of butyrate in intestinal diseases.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the role of peroxidase proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ)/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway in sodium butyrate-induced reduction of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice.Methods:Thirty-two SPF-grade healthy adult male C57BL/6J mice, aged 7-9 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group), intestinal I/R group (IIR group), sodium butyrate group (NaB group) and PPARγ inhibitor GW9662 group (GW9662 group). The model of intestinal I/R was established by occlusion of superior mesenteric artery for 45 min followed by 2-h reperfusion in anesthetized animals.GW9662 2 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 1 h before ischemia in GW9662 group, and sodium butyrate 500 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 30 min before ischemia in NaB and GW9662 groups.Blood samples were obtained via cardiac puncture at 2 h of reperfusion, and the animals were then sacrificed.The intestinal tissues were removed for determination of diamine oxidase (DAO), tumor necrosis factorα (TNF-α) and interleukins 6 (IL-6) concentrations in serum (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and the expression of PPAR and NF-κB p65 (by Western blot). The damage to intestinal mucous membrane was assessed and scored according to Chiu. Results:Compared with group Sham, the Chiu′s score was significantly increased, levels of DAO, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and intestinal tissues were increased, expression of PPARγ was down-regulated, and expression of NF-κB p65 was up-regulated in group IIR ( P<0.05). Compared with group IIR, the Chiu′s score, levels of DAO, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and intestinal tissues were decreased, and expression of PPARγ was up-regulated in group NaB, and expression of NF-κB p65 was up-regulated in NaB and GW9662 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group NaB, the Chiu′s score, levels of DAO, TNF-α and IL-6 in serum and intestinal tissues were increased, and expression of PPARγ was down-regulated, and expression of NF-κB p65 was up-regulated in group GW9662 ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The mechanism by which sodium butyrate reduces intestinal I/R injury may be related to activating PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway and inhibiting inflammatory responses in mice.

ABSTRACT

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide, and its incidence is increasing year by year. The mechanism of NAFLD is not fully understood, and it lacks effective prevention and treatment. Recent studies have found that butyrate, as a short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), plays an important role in gene regulation, immunoregulation, inhibition of tumor, regulation of intestinal mucosal barrier, and reduction of oxidative stress. Several studies have shown that butyrate could alleviate NAFLD. This article reviewed the mechanism of butyrate in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and its application in the treatment of NAFLD, so as to provide a new idea for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Controlling inflammation is a therapeutic goal of various autoimmune/autoinflammatory diseases including Behçet's disease (BD). The immunomodulatory effect of metabolites or metabolic analogs such as butyrate and 3-bromopyruvate has been observed in animal disease models. OBJECTIVE: We attempted to evaluate the effect of butyrate and 3-bromopyruvate on the inflammatory cytokine production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from patients with mucocutaneous involvement of BD. METHODS: PBMCs isolated from 11 patients with BD and 10 healthy controls were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide in the presence of butyrate or 3-bromopyruvate. Butyrate receptor and cytokine messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression was analyzed by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Cytokine secretion was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. PBMCs survival was analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: Bromopyruvate or butyrate treatment suppressed inflammatory cytokine production in PBMCs from all our subjects. Bromopyruvate also reduced PBMCs survival while butyrate did not. As the effect of butyrate was slightly greater in BD patients than in healthy controls, we analyzed butyrate receptor expression and found that lipopolysaccharide-induced free fatty acid receptor 2 mRNA level in PBMCs was higher in BD patients than in controls. CONCLUSION: We propose bromopyruvate and butyrate as supplementary therapeutic candidates to control inflammation in patients with BD.

ABSTRACT

Abstract: Background: A single, effective therapeutic regimen for keloids has not been established yet, and the development of novel therapeutic approaches is expected. Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, play multiple anti-inflammatory and anticancer roles via their respective mechanisms of action. Objective: In this study, we evaluated the antifibrogenic effects of their single and combined use on keloid fibroblasts. Methods: Keloid fibroblasts were treated with butyrate (0-16 mM) and/or DHA (0-100 µM) for 48 or 96 h. Results: Butyrate inhibited cell proliferation, and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and type III collagen expressions, with inhibition of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 and TGF-β type I receptor expressions and increased prostaglandin E2 with upregulation of cyclooxygenase-1 expression with induction of histone acetylation. DHA inhibited α-SMA, type III collagen, and TGF-β type I receptor expressions. Then, the butyrate/DHA combination augmented the antifibrogenic effects, resulting in additional inhibition of α-SMA, type I and III collagen expressions, with strong disruption of stress fiber and apoptosis induction. Moreover, the butyrate/DHA combination inhibited the cyclooxygenase-2 expression, suggesting stronger anti-inflammatory effect than each monotherapy. Study limitations: Activation in keloid tissue is affected not only by fibroblasts but also by epithelial cells and immune cells. Evaluation of the effects by butyrate and DHA in these cells or in an in vivo study is required. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that butyrate and docosahexaenoic acid have antifibrogenic effects on keloid fibroblasts and that these may exert therapeutic effects for keloid.

ABSTRACT

Ulcerative colitis( UC)is a disease difficult to cure and easy to relapse. Although the pathogenic and recurrent factors for UC are not clear,dietary factors are thought to be associated with both of them and becoming the hot topic of UC-related studies. Traditionally,dietary fiber is considered beneficial to UC,however,some of the latest overseas studies raised doubts about it. In this article,the dietary fiber and its role in UC were reviewed.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects and the mechanisms of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (Fp) on trinitro-benzene-sulfonic acid-induced colitis.Methods Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into healthy control group, colitis model control group, Fp pretreated group,Fp supernatant pretreated group,Fp treated group and Fp supernatant treated group.Disease activity index (DAI),histological injury of colonic tissue,the content of butyrate in feces,forkhead box protein 3 (Foxp3) regulatory T cells (Treg) in peripheral blood and spleen and the level of interlenkin (IL)-17 and IL-6 in serum were evaluated.All the data were statistical analyzed by single factor analysis of variance. Results Compared with colitis model control group, DAI significantly lowered and histological injury obviously improved in Fp pretreated group, Fp supernatant pretreated group,Fp treated group and Fp supernatant treated group.The effects of Fp pretreated group were better than those of Fp treated group and Fp supernatant pretreated group were better than Fp supernatant treated group.The concentration of butyrate in Fp pretreated group,Fp supernatant pretreated group,Fp treated group and Fp supernatant treated group was (3091.08 ±485.50) × 106 mol/L,(1714.64 ± 351.25) × 10(-8) mol/L,(2064.75 ± 295.04) × 10-6 mol/L and (1089.13±321.23) × 10-6 mol/L respectively,there was significant difference between Fp pretreated group and other groups (F=49.796,P<0.01).The peripheral blood level of Foxp3+ Treg in Fp supernatant pretreated group was highest.The spleen level of Foxp3+ Treg in Fp pretreated group and Fp supernatant pretreated group were significantly higher than that of other groups.The serum level of IL-17 and IL-6 in Fp pretreated group,Fp supernatant pretreated group,Fp treated group and Fp supernatant treated group was significantly lower than that of colitis model group.Conclustons Fp plays a role in promoting the repair of intestinal inflammatory reaction in colitis model rats.The mechanism may be related with butyrate producing,the peripheral blood and spleen level of Foxp3+ Treg up-regulating,suppressing the secretion of proinflammatory cytokine IL-17 and IL-6.Rebuilding the balance of Treg/Th17 to reduce local intestinal inflammation.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To evaluate the preventive effect of sodium butyrate in the appearance of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) in rats after induction with the carcinogen 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). METHODS: Forty Wistar rats were separated into four groups (n=10) distributed as follows: control 1, control 2, butyrate 1 and butyrate 2. The groups control 1 and butyrate 1 remained under experimentation for 4 weeks, while the groups control 2 and butyrate 2 remained for 8 weeks. In the first four weeks, the animals of the control groups received water ad libitum and the animals of the butyrate groups received a sodium butyrate solution (3.4 percent) ad libitum. Injections of the drug 1,2-dimethylhydrazine were applied during the two first weeks of the experiment in all the animals, concurrently with the application of sodium butyrate. The large intestine of the animals was removed, for the analysis of the ACF and of the content of polyamines. The animal feces were collected for the analysis of the SCFA profile. RESULTS: The spermidine presented a higher concentration in the group butyrate 2 in comparison to the group control 2. There was a significant difference in the concentration value (µmol/mL) of acetate in comparison to the groups control 2 and butyrate 2. CONCLUSION: The use of sodium butyrate together with the induction of colorectal cancer was not effective in the prevention of the disease progression.


OBJETIVO: Avaliar o efeito preventivo do butirato de sódio no surgimento de focos de cripta aberrante (FCA) em ratos após a indução com o carcinógeno 1,2-dimetilhidrazina. MÉTODOS: Quarenta ratos foram divididos em quatro grupos, com dez animais em cada. Os grupos controle 1 e butirato 1 ficaram em experimentação por 4 semanas e os grupos controle 2 e butirato 2 por oito semanas. Nas primeiras quatro semanas, os animais dos grupos controle receberam água ad libitum e os animais dos grupos butirato receberam solução de butirato de sódio (3,4 por cento) ad libitum. Em todos os animais foram aplicadas quatro injeções subcutâneas da droga 1,2-dimetilhidrazina nas duas primeiras semanas, concomitante a administração do butirato de sódio. Foi retirado o intestino grosso dos animais, para análise dos FCA e do teor de poliaminas. As fezes dos animais foram recolhidas para análise do perfil de AGCC. RESULTADOS: A espermidina apresentou maior concentração no grupo butirato 2 em relação ao grupo controle 2. Foi encontrada diferença significativa no valor da concentração de acetato quando comparado os grupos controle 2 e butirato 2. CONCLUSÃO: A utilização do butirato de sódio concomitante à indução do câncer colorretal não se mostrou efetiva na prevenção da progressão da doença.

ABSTRACT

Objective The regulation on glucose transporters(GLUT1~GLUT5)by sodium butyrate was observed,and the regulation on bax and bcl-x/l by sodium butyrate and glucose was studied.This helped to learn about the possible mechanism of apoptosis of cancer cells induced by sodium butyrate.Methods The expression of GLUT1~GLUT5 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.The expression of bax and bcl-x/l was detected by immuocytochemistry.Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay.Results In HT-29 cell line,sodium butyrate downregulated the expression of GLUT1 mRNA and the expression of bcl-x/l and induced cancer cell apoptosis,but did not regulate the expression of GLUT2,GLUT3,GLUT5 and bax.GLUT4 was not detected in HT-29 cell line.And when treated with sodium butyrate,the increase of concentration of glucose could increase the expression of bcl-x/l and reduce the effect of apoptosis induced by sodium butyrate.Without treatment with sodium butyrate,the change of glucose concentration only had a feeble regulation on apoptosis.Conclusion Sodium butyrate can obviously downregulate the expression of GLUT1 and downregulation of the expression of GLUT1 is associated with the apoptosis induced by sodium butyrate in HT-29 cell line.

ABSTRACT

AIM:Sodium butyrate has antitumor effects on colon cancer cells such as inhibiting cell growth and promoting differentiation and apoptosis.The aim of this study is to investigate whether sodium butyrate induces apoptosis in human colon cancer cell line HT-29 and to examine the intracellular mechanisms involved,especially the role of caspase activation in the process.METHODS:HT-29 cells were cultured to logarithmic phase before treatment with sodium butyrate at concentration of 5.0 mmol/L and caspase inhibitors at the concentration of 20 ?mol/L.The latter were added in the medium ahead of sodium butyrate for 1 h.Then,the staining of Annexin V-FITC and PI were used to analyze HT-29 apoptosis and the dye JC-1 was applied to detect mitochondrial membrane potential by flow cytometry.Caspase activity within the cells was measured respectively using a specific caspase activity assay kit and a microplate reader.RESULTS:Preincubation of HT-29 cells with sodium butyrate significantly increased apoptosis [(35.40?0.70)%] and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential(5.53?0.91).This effect was blocked when pretreatments were enforced with z-VAD-fmk,z-DEVD-fmk and z-LEHD-fmk.The apoptosis percentages were(1.33?0.59)%,(1.40?0.53)% and(1.27?0.91)%,respectively and mitochondrial membrane potentials were 9.80?1.15,10.23?0.50 and 10.33?1.02,respectively.However,the role of reduction by z-IETD-fmk,which presented the apoptosis percentage of(32.10?2.33)% and mitochondrial membrane potential of 5.93?1.31,was not observed.An enhancement of caspase-3 and-9 activities(2-3-fold)but no change of caspase-8 activity was confirmed.CONCLUSION:Apoptosis of HT-29 colon carcinoma cells induced by sodium butyrate is tightly linked to caspase activation via mitochondrial pathway other than tumor necrosis factor-alpha and has the potential to inhibit proliferation and thereby may contribute to the progression of colon cancer.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the immunological function of sodium butyrate-induced immature dendritic cells in vitro.METHODS: The human monocyte-derived dendritic cells were induced in the presence of human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4), combined with sodium butyrate. The immunological function of sodium butyrate-induced dendritic cells was detected by the FCM, endocytic activity, T cells stimulatory proliferation capacity, and interleukin-12 (IL-12) production.RESULTS: Sodium butyrate could down-regulate the major histocompatibility complex(MHC) class II and costimulatory molecules of dendritic cells, increase the endocytic activity, induce a stage of T-cell anergey, and inhibit the T helper cell type 1-skewing factor IL-12 production. CONCLUSION: Sodium butyrate inhibits the maturation of dendritic cells and induces production of immature dendritic cells, which may help to explore the machenism of its epigenitic modification.
