The Divergent Immunomodulatory Effects of Short Chain Fatty Acids and Medium Chain Fatty Acids
Fatty acids are derived from diet and fermentative processes by the intestinal flora. Two to five carbon chain fatty acids, termed short chain fatty acids (SCFA) are increasingly recognized to play a role in intestinal homeostasis. However, the characteristics of slightly longer 6 to 10 carbon, medi...
