Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) serve as key signaling molecules linking gut microbiota and host health. Microbially produced SCFAs in the colon are generally acknowledged for their beneficial ...

The results showed that total SCFAs, total branched short-chain fatty acids (BCFAs), and isovaleric acid were significantly associated with incident T2DM (P < 0.05). Interestingly, gender-specific ...

Researchers are conducting studies to help understand how diabetes drugs affect glucose excretion, the gut microbiome, and their metabolic products.

Faecal microbiota, as measured with FISH, and SCFAs, pH and sIgA was assessed at 4 time points: before start of the study, at day 7, 14 and 30 of life. Data were analysed by generalised estimating ...

One class of bacterial metabolites that have attracted a lot of attention in recent years are the SCFAs (i.e., acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid) produced by anaerobic bacteria through ...
