Propionate, rather than acetate or butyrate, ameliorates methamphetamine-induced hepatotoxicity and enterotoxicity in mice by downregulating the TLR4/NF-κB pathway

Propionate, rather than acetate or butyrate, ameliorates methamphetamine-induced hepatotoxicity and enterotoxicity in mice by downregulating the TLR4/NF-κB pathway

The abuse of methamphetamine (METH) has emerged as a major public health concern, causing liver and intestinal damage upon exposure.
