Short-chain fatty acids activate acetyltransferase p300 [PDF]

eLife, 2021
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) acetate, propionate, and butyrate are produced in large quantities by the gut microbiome and contribute to a wide array of physiological processes. While the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown, many effects of SCFAs

Short-chain fatty acids in diseases

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2023
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 transporters, such as monocarboxylate transporter 1 and sodium ...

Engineering fungal de novo fatty acid synthesis for short chain fatty acid production [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2017
The production of short chain fatty acids by microorganisms has numerous industrial and biofuel applications. Here the authors reprogrammeS. cerevisiaefatty acid synthase with five mutations to produce C6- and C8-fatty acids and identify thioesterases ...

Ir56d-dependent fatty acid responses in Drosophila uncover taste discrimination between different classes of fatty acids

eLife, 2021
Chemosensory systems are critical for evaluating the caloric value and potential toxicity of food. While animals can discriminate between thousands of odors, much less is known about the discriminative capabilities of taste systems.

Effect of Season on Fatty Acid Content of Holstein Cow Milk in Inner Mongolia [PDF]

Shipin Kexue, 2023
In order to evaluate the influence of season on the fatty acid content of Holstein cow milk in Inner Mongolia, milk samples were collected from 10 large commercial pastures in Inner Mongolia during four seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter) and ...

Occurrence and distribution of ladderane oxidation products in different oceanic regimes [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2012
Ladderane fatty acids are commonly used as biomarkers for bacteria involved in anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox). These lipids have been experimentally shown to undergo aerobic microbial degradation to form short chain ladderane fatty acids. However,

Short-Chain Fatty Acids [PDF]

, 2020
The relationship between diet and the diversity and function of the intestinal microbiomeand its importance for human health is currently the subject of many studies. The type and proportionof microorganisms found in the intestines can determine the energy balance of the host.

Short-chain fatty acids [PDF]

, 2021
Global obesity rates are increasing more and more. Short-chain fatty acids, the end products of fermentation of indigestible carbohydrates by intestinal bacteria, can influence metabolism and therefore play a role in the development of obesity and diabetes.
