Caecal infusion of the short‐chain fatty acid propionate affects the microbiota and expression of inflammatory cytokines in the colon in a fistula pig model

Short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs), particularly butyrate, are known to suppress inflammation, and regulate the gut bacterial ecology. However, little is known about propionate. We report here that propionate infusion in the caecum dramatically affected the structure of colonic microbiota of pigs based...
