2019-12-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> Gut microbial products are involved in type 2 diabetes, obesity and insulin resistance. In particular, hippurate, a hepatic phase 2 conjugation product of microbial benzoate metabolism, has been associated with a healthy phenotype. This study aims to identify metagenomic determinants and test protective effects of hippurate. <h4>Design</h4> We profiled the urine metabolome b...
