The gut microbiota promotes hepatic fatty acid desaturation and elongation in mice

The role of the gut microbiota in hepatic lipid metabolism is controversial and incompletely understood. Here the authors perform multi-omics analyses of altered lipid metabolic processes in germ-free and specific pathogen-free mice, revealing how the gut microbiota affects hepatic fatty acid desatu...
