Betaine inhibits Toll-like receptor 4 responses and restores intestinal microbiota in acute liver failure mice
Abstract Previous research has revealed that the gut microbiome has a marked impact on acute liver failure (ALF). Here, we evaluated the impact of betaine on the gut microbiota composition in an ALF animal model. The potential protective effect of betaine by regulating Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) re...
