A59 IMPACT OF ISOVALERATE SUPPLEMENTATION ON MURINE ANTIBODY RESPONSES DURING ENTERIC HELMINTH INFECTION

Journal of the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology
Abstract Background Parasitic worm (helminth) infections significantly contribute to human morbidity, with nearly one fifth of the global population chronically infected. Our lab has shown that levels of the short chain fatty acid isovalerate are increased during a murine intestinal helminth infection
