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: Pathogen control, promote gut health and development. Enhance intestinal barrier function by upregulating the expression of tight junction proteins. Reduce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and hence enhance the immune function. Improved energy status (ATP production) of colonocytes - positive influence on proliferation and maturation of intestinal epithelial cells.
