Increased concentration of ferrous iron in the gastrointestinal tract increases the number of various pathogens and induces inflammation. LPS and/or high-fat diet-associated metaflammation is mediated through a quaternary receptor signaling complex containing iron-regulated pathway, IL-6/STAT inflammatory signaling pathway, hepcidin regulatory pathway, and common TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. We, therefore, investigated whether bifidobacteria directly or indirectly ameliorate LPS- and/or high-fat diet-associated metaflammation ...
