CB0313.1 upregulates butyrate production by buk and butyryl-CoA genes accompanied by an increase in the SCFA receptor in HF diabetic mice. (a) SCFA concentration in feces measured by GC-MS. Total DNA was extracted from feces and real-time PCR was performed. (b) Predominant butyrate producing genes: abundance of butyrate kinase (buk) and butyryl-CoA DNA in feces. (c) Relative mRNA expression of SCFA receptors (Ffar2, Ffar3) in colon. Data are mean ± SEM (n = 3–12 mice per group). #, ##, ### p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001 vs HF diabetic control by one-way ANOVA followed by the indicated post hoc test. *, **, ***p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001 vs HF diabetic control by t-test. HF diabetic: high fat diet and streptozotocin, HF diabetic CB: high fat diet and streptozotocin plus CB0313.1, HF diabetic NaB: high fat diet and streptozotocin plus NaB, ND: Normal diet.
