Isolation and identification of ATP-secreting bacteria from mice and humans
Open accessAbstract
In a recent report, ATP, which was possibly secreted by some intestinal bacteria, was shown to cause colitis in mice via Th17 cell differentiation. However, the ATP-secreting bacteria have not been isolated and identified. In the present study, we report that Enterococcus gallinarum, which is a vancomycin-resistant Gram-positive coccus isolated from mice and humans, secretes ATP.

Some but not all intestinal bacteria actively secrete ATP, and germ-free mice have lower gut ATP concentrations than controls.
“some, but not all, intestinal bacteria actively secrete ATP, and germ-free mice have lower ATP concentrations in their gut than controls (Atarashi et al., 2008; Hironaka et al., 2013; Iwase et al., 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
