Abstract

Our findings suggest the lack of inflammatory response of intestinal mucosa in the presence of LPSs of D. desulfuricans. This response can be conditioned by the natural bacterial product, butyrate, which exerts a stimulatory effect on the IL-8 secretion and modulates its release in response to LPSs.
