Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are the main metabolites produced by the gut microbiota via
the fermentation of complex carbohydrates and fibers. Evidence suggests that SCFAs play a …

The human microbiota is fundamental to correct immune system development and balance.
Dysbiosis, or microbial content alteration in the gut and respiratory tract, is associated with …

Our ancestral diet consisted of much more nondigestible fiber than that of many societies
today. Thus, from an evolutionary perspective the human genome and its physiological and …

A growing body of documents shows microbiota produce metabolites such as short-chain
fatty acids (SCFAs) as crucial executors of diet-based microbial influence the host and …

Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) produced by intestinal microbes mediate anti-inflammatory
effects, but whether they impact on antimicrobial host defenses remains largely unknown …

The human intestinal microbiome substantially affects human health and resistance to
infections in its dynamic composition and varying release of microbial-derived metabolites …

Microbiota-derived short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are crucial for protecting the intestinal
barrier and regulating the immune response during infections. Recent studies show that viral …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are the main metabolites produced by bacterial fermentation
of dietary fibre in the gastrointestinal tract. The absorption of SCFAs is mediated by substrate …

Free fatty acids (FFAs) have long been acknowledged for their antimicrobial activity. More
recently, long-chain FFAs (> 12 carbon atoms) are receiving increased attention for their …

The human gut microbiota is inextricably linked to health and disease. One important
function of the commensal organisms living in the intestine is to provide colonization …
