Abstract:
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are important metabolic products of intestinal bacteria, and participate in the metabolism of intestinal materials, mediate the interaction between intestinal bacteria and intestinal mucosal epithelial cells, and are closely related to the occurrence of many diseases. Intestinal leakage is a pathological state and disease process in which intestinal function is impaired due to various reasons. Studies on the relationship between SCFAs and intestinal leakage are few. This article reviewed the relationship between SCFAs and intestinal leakage and its impact on diseases.
