...In contrast to the earlier study showing the expression of GPR43 in colonic Tregs and myeloid cells (Smith et al., 2013), Park and co-authors reported that T cells do not significantly express GPR43 and thus GPR43 is not functional in regulating cytokine expression in T cells, which is rather…...

...Recent studies have shown the effects of SCFAs on Treg cell expansion/generation via SCFAs-GPCR or their HDAC-inhibiting ability (Figure 2 and 3) (Arpaia et al., 2013; Furusawa et al., 2013; Singh et al., 2014; Smith et al., 2013)....

...The action of SCFA likely results from themanipulation of various cells involved in the induction of regulatory responses, and indeed, the effect of SCFA on both T cell and dendritic cells has been linked to this process (Arpaia et al., 2013; Furusawa et al., 2013; Smith et al., 2013)....

...Additionally, and as previously discussed, single chain fatty acids (SCFA), have been shown to limit GI inflammation both by the induction of Treg and the direct inhibition of macrophage and neutrophil activation (Arpaia et al., 2013; Furusawa et al., 2013; Maslowski et al., 2009; Smith et al., 2013)....

...Notably, SCFA and in particular butyrate regulate the size and function of the regulatory T cell network by promoting the induction and fitness of regulatory T cells in the colonic environment (Arpaia et al., 2013; Furusawa et al., 2013; Smith et al., 2013)....

...Indeed, we observe lower fecal SCFA concentrations in GFandAbx-treated animals, compared toSPFmice (Figure S3A; Smith et al., 2013)....

...SCFA treated animals were provided with drinking containing sodium acetate (67.5mM; Sigma Aldrich), sodium propionate (25mM; Sigma Aldrich), and sodium butyrate (40mM; Sigma Aldrich) beginning at 5-6 weeks of age until 12-13 weeks of age (Smith et al., 2013)....
