What Are Short-Chain Fatty Acids?
SCFAs — acetate, propionate, and butyrate — are metabolites produced when gut bacteria ferment dietary fiber. They are emerging as one of the most important molecular links between diet, gut health, and systemic wellbeing.
Most abundant SCFA. Travels to peripheral tissues and participates in lipid metabolism and appetite regulation.
Primarily used by the liver. Involved in gluconeogenesis regulation and cholesterol synthesis modulation.
Primary energy source for colonocytes — providing 70–80% of energy for colon cells. DRS Korea specializes in butyrate delivery innovation.
Three Core Functions of Butyrate
- Colonocyte Energy Fuels colon epithelial cells — the first line of gut defense — providing up to 80% of their energy needs.
- Gut Barrier Integrity Promotes tight junction proteins, reducing intestinal permeability and protecting against "leaky gut" syndrome.
- Immune Regulation Induces regulatory T-cells (Treg) and modulates NF-κB signaling, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production.
