That’s the title of a preview article for a new Cell Host & Microbe paper, “Microbiota Regulate Intestinal Absorption and Metabolism of Fatty Acids in the Zebrafish,” from co-corresponding authors John Rawls and Steven Farber. From an interview with John about this work: “If we can understand how specific gut bacteria are able to stimulate absorption of dietary fat, we may be able to use that information to develop new ways to reduce fat absorption in the context of obesity and associated metabolic diseases, and to enhance fat absorption in the context of malnutrition.” To read the article, click here.
