Embodiment Construction
[0012] The present disclosure relates to a bacterium comprising a gene set encoding the inositol to propionate pathway, which allows the bacterium to convert inositol into propionate or a salt or ester thereof for the prevention and / or treatment of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and / or insulin resistance-related conditions.
[0013] Specifically, the bacterium is capable of converting inositol to propionic acid or its derivatives through inositol metabolism and propionic acid synthesis. The inositol may be chiro-inositol or myo-inositol, preferably myo-inositol. In a preferred embodiment, the bacterium is also a butyrogenic (butyrogenic) bacterium that produces butyrate and / or butyrate (salt / ester) (i.e. also contains butyrate / butyrate synthesis pathway genes set).
[0014] Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that bacteria according to the present disclosure (or strains derived therefrom), when administered to or ingested in sufficient quantities by...
