Summary

Fiber is the main source of energy for colonic bacteria and its consumption favorably modifies the composition of the microbiota in only a few days. Their fermentation in the colon releases short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Clostridiales contain many strains producing SCFAs. These SCFAs can restore the intestinal barrier and promote certain anti-inflammatory cells, including regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are essential to the mechanisms in tolerance of the self. Fibers could therefore correct the intestinal abnormalities present in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA) and aggravated by anti-IL-17 drugs and thus improve the therapeutic response to these treatments. The hypothesis is that dietary fiber will correct the dysbiosis in AxSpA patients and increase the release of SCFAs, which favorably modulate the immune response and improve AxSpA.
