Intestinal immunoglobulin A response to the microbiota
Intestinal immunoglobulin A response to the microbiota. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.
1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.
How nutrients influence it
Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.
Other things that act on it
Enzymes, hormones, genes, and other components with a recorded effect. These are not nutrients, so they do not count toward the arrows above. Each finding names the chapter that recorded it.
How nutrients reach it in more than one step
Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does
Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.
What acts on it
GPR43 knockout mice had lower levels of intestinal IgA and of IgA-coated gut bacteria than wild-type mice, and feeding wild-type but not GPR43 knockout mice acetate, but not butyrate, promoted the intestinal IgA response independently of T cells.

- exposure
- Dietary acetate or butyrate in wild-type and GPR43 knockout mice, with in vitro IgA class switching assays
- limitations
- A clean set of controls: butyrate did not substitute for acetate, the effect was independent of T cells, and blocking the downstream vitamin A metabolite removed it.
