Branched chain fatty acid-rich diet promotes lipid droplet enlargement and impacts organismal health in Caenorhabditis elegans

2025-01-20

Abstract excerpt

Considerable amounts of branched chain fatty acids (BCFAs) are present in the human diet from beef and dairy products. BCFAs can also be produced by the human gut microbiota and synthesized from branched chain amino acids. However, the physiological impact of a BCFA-rich diet on lipid metabolism and organismal health is unclear. In this study, by screening a collection of dietary bacteria, we find that the BCFA-ri...
