A kind of low-calorie structured lipid (LCSL) was obtained by interesterification of tributyrin (TB) and methyl stearate (St-ME), catalyzed by a commercially immobilized 1,3-specific lipase, Lipozyme RM IM from Rhizomucor miehei . The condition optimization of the process was conducted

Tributyrin attenuates obesity-associated inflammation and insulin resistance in high-fat-fed mice.

Marco Aurélio Ramirez Vinolo et al.

American journal of physiology. Endocrinology and metabolism, 303(2), E272-E282 (2012-05-25)

The aim of this study was to investigate whether treatment with tributyrin (Tb; a butyrate prodrug) results in protection against diet-induced obesity and associated insulin resistance. C57BL/6 male mice fed a standard chow or high-fat diet were treated with Tb
