The gut microbiome and the intestinal immune system are driving contributors to
inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Both have an important signalling factor in common …

Dynamic interactions between gut microbiota and a host's innate and adaptive immune
systems are essential in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and inhibiting inflammation. Gut …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), mainly including acetate, propionate, and butyrate, are
metabolites produced during the bacterial fermentation of dietary fiber in the intestinal tract …

The intestinal mucosa provides a selective permeable barrier for nutrient absorption and
protection from external factors. It consists of epithelial cells, immune cells and their …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are carboxylic acids with carbon atom numbers less than 6,
which are important metabolites of gut microbiome. Existing research shows that SCFAs …

There is now an abundance of evidence to show that short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) play an
important role in the maintenance of health and the development of disease. SCFAs are a …
