Keratin 8 absence down-regulates colonocyte HMGCS2 and modulates colonic ketogenesis and energy metabolism
Absence of colonic keratin 8 causes intestinal inflammation and decreased levels of the ketogenic enzyme HMGCS2. Upstream, the butyrate transporter MCT1 is decreased, leading to increased luminal butyrate. Ketogenic conditions fail to induce HMGCS2 in the keratin 8–knockout colon, suggesting a role...
