Short-chain fatty acids, biomarkers of diet-responsive enteropathies

The results of this study would indicate that fatty acids might be good noninvasive indicators of chronic inflammatory status, particularly in FRE.
Food responsiveenteropathy (FRE), or diet-responsive enteropathy, is the most common diagnosis for dogs with chronic enteropathy, and there are no scientifically valid tests that can replace the dietary trial. But have we ever thought about the possible assessment of a dog’s health or disease status through the lipid profile of essential fatty acids? Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are the main end products of dietary fiber formed by bacteria. Their role in health and disease has been analyzed previously, taking into account their relationship with the digestive system microbiota and their effects on the immune system and gastrointestina...
