Deskripsi
Here, using a mouse model, the authors report a previously undescribed role for medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase in host metabolism of gut microbiota metabolites, and show that circulating compounds, including the abundant organic acid hippurate, depend on host-microbe co-metabolism of phenylalanine by Clostridium sporogenes.
