Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary study parameter will be changes in innate immunity (periferal monocyte phenotype and in vitro cytokine production) upon oral sodium butyrate treatment. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| adaptive immunological parameters: FACS on peripheral T-cell subsets and mucosa innate and adaptive immunity stimulated (mixed meal) beta cell function (stimuled C-peptide upon standardized mixed meal (boost) challenge in serum and urine), glucose regulation (HbA1c and daily insulin use), intestinal and systemic inflammation (fecal calprotectin, CRP, leukocytes) bacterial translocation (LPS-binding peptide in serum). changes in fecal and serum butyrate concentrations changes in gut microbiome (HIT-chip) diet/caloric intake will be evaluated by diet lists. | — |
