| 1 | BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Butyrate, a natural product of colonic bacterial flora, has been reported to increase the activities of a number of enzymes, including alkaline phosphatase, (ALP) in several cancer cell lines. | Butyrates | alkaline phosphatase, placental | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | However, butyrate-induced ALP gene expression in human hepatoma cells has not been previously demonstrated. | Butyrates | alkaline phosphatase, placental | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | CONCLUSION: Butyrate, at a concentration relevant to the normal physiology of the liver, causes augmented expression of ALP mRNA in HepG2 cells. | Butyrates | alkaline phosphatase, placental | Homo sapiens |
