Tributyrin is a triglyceride containing three butyrate molecules esterified to glycerol,augments butyrate concentrations after hydrolyzation by lipases. Butyric acid is well-known as an alternative to Antibiotic Growth Promoter (AGP) to counteract
problems derived from Endotoxin exposure.
Function:
ü Pathogen control, promote gut health and development.
ü Enhance intestinal barrier function by upregulating the expression of tight junctionproteins.
ü Reduce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and hence enhance the immune function.
ü Improved energy status (ATP production) of colonocytes - positive influence on proliferation and maturation of intestinal epithelial cells.
