Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The concentration of short chain fatty acids (butyrate et al.), which is produced in the periodontal pockets, are approximately ten times more than that in the healthy pockets. In addition, butyrate induces apoptosis in human cells, including gingival fibroblasts and in T and B cells, and the molecule activates virus infected in human. In this study, to develop the medications that are inhibitors for enzymes associated with butyrate production, molecular basis on production of butyrate and propionate were elucidated by clarifying the properties of the purified enzymes.
