Microbiota-derived acetate activates intestinal innate immunity via the Tip60 histone acetyltransferase complex by Bat-Erdene, Jugder

“…In these cells, the IMD pathway co-regulates expression of antimicrobial and enteroendocrine peptides including tachykinin, a repressor of intestinal lipid synthesis. To determine whether acetate acts on a cell surface pattern recognition receptor or an intracellular target, we asked whether acetate import was essential for IMD signaling. …”

Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate-evaporite sedimentation in an arid eolian landscape: The Khor Al Adaid tide-dominated coastal embayment, Qatar by John M., Rivers

“…Associated flow expansion into less confined areas results in deposition of the eolian-derived sands as flood-tidal deltas, one in the Outer, and two in the Inner Lagoon. A weakly-developed ebb-tidal delta occurs where the Entrance Channel debouches into the Arabian Gulf. …”
