Abstract

GPR43 receptor as anti-inflammatory target Recent evidence has suggested that the products of 'friendly' intestinal microbes can help counter inflammatory disease and Type 1 diabetes in the host. Commensal bacteria in the colon are known to ferment dietary fibres to produce short-chain fatty acids, and now a study of a mouse model of colitis shows that these fatty acids down-regulate innate and inflammatory responses by stimulating the chemoattractant receptor GPR43 on neutrophils. This identifies interactions between short-chain fatty acids and GPR43 as a possible target for the manipulation of immune responses.
