Article Synopsis
- Researchers investigated the connection between gut microbiome metabolites and heart health by studying stool samples from 77 patients who experienced heart attacks (STEMI).
- They discovered a higher presence of butyrate-producing bacteria in these patients, which was confirmed through tests on nonhuman primates.
- In experiments with gnotobiotic mice, these bacteria were shown to boost cardiac function after heart attacks by producing beta-hydroxybutyrate, indicating a new role for gut bacteria in recovery from myocardial infarction.
