The Scientific and Technological Innovation Team of Animal Nutrition and Regulation of the Beijing Institute of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences published a review describing the role of the gut-liver axis in non-alcoholic fatty liver

Recently, the Animal Nutrition and Regulation Technology Innovation Team of Beijing Institute of Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences published a review article, systematically expounding the research progress of intestinal microbes influencing non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) based on the intestinal-liver axis, in order to explore systematic prevention and treatment The new NAFLD method provides ideas

According to the team's chief researcher Zhang Hongfu, there is a very important communication pathway between the intestine and the liver.

The study focused on the regulation of the intestinal-liver axis in NAFLD, focusing on the influence of the intestinal barrier, intestinal microbes and their metabolites (including short-chain fatty acids, amino acid metabolites, choline metabolites, alcohol, etc.

Project funding

The research was funded by the State Key Laboratory of Animal Nutrition, the Science and Technology Innovation Project of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and the Fundamental Research Fund of the Central Public Welfare Research Institute
