    - Propionate interacts with a type of immune system cell mononuclear phagocytes that are also found in the lining of the gut which cascade sets of inflammation.
  • [1.2
    - Propionate induce glycogenolysis and hyperglycaemia via the upregulation of glucagon and fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4), thereby hindering the effects of insulin.

  • [1.11] [#Short Chain Fatty Acid
    - #Butyrate or propionate, but not acetate > rapidly converted to the corresponding acyl-CoAs > used by p300 to catalyze auto-acylation of the autoinhibitory loop > activate the acetyltransferase p300 > activating the enzyme for histone/protein acetylation > rapid and sustained increases in histone acetylation.
  • [1.12] [#Obesity
    - Maternal consumption of #Sweeteners > altered cecal microbial composition and metabolism of propionate/#Lactate in their offspring. - Offspring daily body weight gain, liver weight and body fat > correlate positively to the relative abundance of key microbes and enzymes involved in #Succinate/propionate production while negatively correlated to that of #Lactose degradation and #Lactate production. - The altered propionate/#Lactate production in the cecum of weanlings from aspartame and stevia consuming dams implicates an altered ratio of dietary carbohydrate digestion, mainly #Lactose, in the small intestine vs. microbial fermentation in the large intestine.
  • [1.13] [#Propionibacterium freudenreichii
    - P. freudenreichii is able to reduce pyruvate into propionate

  • [#Hypertension] - Blood pressure > increased #Acetate, #Butyrate, and propionate
  • [1.15] [#Short Chain Fatty Acid] [#Long-term daily high-protein yoghurt
    - At day 42, total SCFA were significantly lower in the Skyr group compared to the Control with a trend of lower concentrations of #Acetate and propionate there was no significant difference at day 112. - The proportion of butyrate/total SCFA was significantly higher in Skyr compared to the Control group at day 42
  • [1.16
    - Propionate and #Butyrate regulate gene expression by directly inhibiting histone deacetylases (HDACs)
  • [#Short Chain Fatty Acid] - SCFA levels were observed to be decreased in non-obese #Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. - SCFAs help to inhibit the progress of NAFLD in a variety of ways. - As histone deacetylase inhibitors, propionate, #Acetate, and #Butyrate play an important role in NAFLD by decreasing chromatin-bound acetyl groups
  • [#Steatohepatitis] - #Acetate, propionate, and #Butyrate have been shown to alleviate hepatic steatosis by activating AMP-activated protein kinase, expressing a fatty-acid oxidation gene, and inhibiting macrophage proinflammatory activation
  • [1.17] [#Irritable bowel syndrome
    - a recent meta-analysis identified low levels of propionate and #Butyrate in feces from patients with IBS-C, as compared with healthy controls, and a higher proportion of #Butyrate in fecal samples of patients with IBS-D, as compared with controls
  • [1.18] [#Antibiotic Therapy
    - In case of antibiotics treatment it decreases the production of SCFA like #Butyrate, propionate and #Acetate which increases inflammation.
  • - Propionate serves as satiety molecule and facilitates production of ATP in liver.
  • [1.19] [#Multiple Sclerosis
    - concentrations of fecal SCFAs (i.e., #Acetate, #Butyrate and propionate) were decreased in RRMS patients, compared to healthy controls
  • [#Gastric bypass surgery] - Higher #Butyrate- and propionate-to-#Acetate ratios after the surgery compared to baseline indicates a shift in microbial metabolism from #Acetate production to #Butyrate and propionate production. - #Butyrate and propionate, which are known to induce satiety in animals and humans, were in greater concentrations in post-RYGB patients compared to nonsurgical controls.
  • [#Diabetes Type 2] [#Gastric bypass surgery] - An increase in propionate and #Bile Acids after RYGB was associated with an increase in hormone peptide tyrosine tyrosine (PYY) in humans and, hence, resolution of diabetes.

    - Patients with CAD had lower concentrations of propionate compared to patients without CAD. - increase of propionate concentration was associated with reduced risk for CAD. - Propionate serum concentrations elicit an immunomodulation with increases of regulatory T cells.
  • - Persons with #Hypertension had lower propionate concentrations
  • [1.22] [#Short Chain Fatty Acid] [#Infants
    - a higher percentage of propionate in relation to total SCFA composition was associated with longer uninterrupted human infant #Sleep
  • [1.23] [#Short Chain Fatty Acid
    - The concentrations of these SCFAs in the colon are in the order of #Acetate > propionate > #Butyrate with molar ratios of approximately 60:20:20. - The total luminal SCFA concentrations in humans are 70–140 mmol/kg in the proximal colon, 20–70 mmol/kg in the distal colon, and 10–20 mmol/kg in the terminal ileum. - Approximately 95% of the produced SCFAs are absorbed by colonocytes, and the absorbed SCFAs contribute to 5%–15% of the caloric requirement for humans. - The presence of SCFAs is sensed by intestinal epithelial cells and immune cells by G-protein coupled receptors (GPRs), such as GPR41, GPR43, GPR109a, and Olf78. - SCFAs act as type I and II histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, with #Butyrate and propionate having higher HDAC-inhibiting activities compared to #Acetate. - The three major SCFAs promote the proliferation of normal crypt cells in the intestine of healthy individuals. - Triggering GPR43 and GPR41 dynamically regulates the gut barrier, inducing tight junction proteins at steady state but rapidly increasing the permeability during infection, perhaps, to facilitate acute immune responses.

    - The genus #Blautia was one of the most represented genera in both groups enriched in group T2D. - #Lachnoclostridium were more abundant in the microbiome profiles of diabetic patients. - There are anomalies in the genera #Bacteroides and #Prevotella, both of which are increased in the T2D, both genera are propionate producers.
