Mechanistic description

The gap can be tested by treating TLR4 priming as an upstream driver rather than a passive correlate. If true, perturbing butyrate-restoring consortia should shift fecal butyrate before downstream neurodegeneration markers change.

Mechanism / pathway

  1. TLR4 priming
  2. TLR4 priming
  3. neurodegeneration
