The short-chain fatty acid pentanoate suppresses autoimmunity by modulating the metabolic-epigenetic crosstalk in lymphocytes

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) have immunomodulatory effects, but the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Here the authors show that a SCFA, pentanoate, suppresses autoimmune inflammation in mouse models of colitis and multiple sclerosis via epigenetic modulation of immune cell metabolic and f...

Sumario:Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) have immunomodulatory effects, but the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Here the authors show that a SCFA, pentanoate, suppresses autoimmune inflammation in mouse models of colitis and multiple sclerosis via epigenetic modulation of immune cell metabolic and functional pathways.
