Butyrate
The most biologically potent short-chain fatty acid (C4). Butyrate is the primary energy source for colonocytes, a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor with broad epigenetic effects, and a key anti-inflammatory mediator. Its depletion -- driven by loss of butyrate-produ…

Ketone Bodies
Ketone bodies (beta-hydroxybutyrate [BHB], acetoacetate, acetone) are produced by hepatic fatty acid oxidation during carbohydrate restriction, fasting, or ketogenic diet consumption. BHB is the most abundant and is structurally and functionally analogous to butyrate — …

Propionic Acid
A three-carbon short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced primarily by Bacteroidetes and certain Firmicutes through anaerobic fermentation of dietary substrates. At physiological concentrations in healthy gut microbiomes, propionic acid (PPA) is a normal fermentation produc…

Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs)
The most extensively referenced missing concept in this wiki. SCFAs -- acetate (C2), propionate (C3), and butyrate (C4) -- are the primary metabolic products of anaerobic bacterial fermentation of dietary fiber in the colon. They serve as the critical molecular link bet…
