High-fat diet increases circulating palmitic acid produced by gut Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron to promote thrombosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Circulating palmitic acid (PA) is generally considered to be provided from diets and endogenous synthesis and is adversely correlated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is unknown, however, if gut microbiota modulates circulating PA and potentiates CVD risk. Here we demonstrate that, in CVD patients, elevated circulating PA is accompanied with hypercoagulability and high gut Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (BT) abundance. PA promotes coagulation by inhibiting a major endogenous anticoagulant activated protein C (APC) and enhancing platelet activation. Importantly, BT is capable of synthesizing PA, and high-fat diet amplifies gut BT colonization. Our findings show that BT transplantation elevates plasma PA and triggers hypercoagulation without alternating host lipogenesis. Hesperidin, a dietary flavonoid, inhibits PA-APC interaction to prevent hypercoagulation induced by PA or BT transplantation. Collectively, we reveal the promotion of high-fat diet on gut BT colonization that elevates circulating PA and CVD risk, suggesting an approach controlling CVD by targeting PA and BT.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
