Microbial-Driven Butyrate Regulates Jejunal Homeostasis in Piglets During the Weaning Stage

Microbial-Driven Butyrate Regulates Jejunal Homeostasis in Piglets During the Weaning Stage

Microbe-derived butyrate plays an important role in the gut health of young mammals during the weaning stage. A greater understanding of how butyrate regulates intestinal development is necessary for overcoming post-weaning diarrheal diseases. We aimed to investigate whether jejunal microbial metabo...
