    Description: Gut commensal microbes shape the mucosal immune system by regulating the differentiation and expansion of several types of T cell. Clostridia, a dominant class of commensal microbe, can induce colonic regulatory T (Treg) cells, which have a central role in the suppression of inflammatory and allergic responses. However, the molecular mechanisms by which commensal microbes induce colonic Treg cells have been unclear. Here we show that a large bowel microbial fermentation product, butyrate, induces the differentiation of colonic Treg cells in mice. A comparative NMR-based metabolome analysis suggests that the luminal concentrations of short-chain fatty acids positively correlates with the number of Treg cells in the colon. Among short-chain fatty acids, butyrate induced the differentiation of Treg cells in vitro and in vivo, and ameliorated the development of colitis induced by adoptive transfer of CD4(+) CD45RB(hi) T cells in Rag1(-/-) mice. Treatment of naive T cells under the Treg-cell-polarizing conditions with butyrate enhanced histone H3 acetylation in the promoter and conserved non-coding sequence regions of the Foxp3 locus, suggesting a possible mechanism for how microbial-derived butyrate regulates the differentiation of Treg cells. Our findings provide new insight into the mechanisms by which host-microbe interactions establish immunological homeostasis in the gut.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Furusawa, Yukihiro -- Obata, Yuuki -- Fukuda, Shinji -- Endo, Takaho A -- Nakato, Gaku -- Takahashi, Daisuke -- Nakanishi, Yumiko -- Uetake, Chikako -- Kato, Keiko -- Kato, Tamotsu -- Takahashi, Masumi -- Fukuda, Noriko N -- Murakami, Shinnosuke -- Miyauchi, Eiji -- Hino, Shingo -- Atarashi, Koji -- Onawa, Satoshi -- Fujimura, Yumiko -- Lockett, Trevor -- Clarke, Julie M -- Topping, David L -- Tomita, Masaru -- Hori, Shohei -- Ohara, Osamu -- Morita, Tatsuya -- Koseki, Haruhiko -- Kikuchi, Jun -- Honda, Kenya -- Hase, Koji -- Ohno, Hiroshi -- England -- Nature. 2013 Dec 19;504(7480):446-50. doi: 10.1038/nature12721.
