Background: The understanding of bile acid (BA) and unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) profiles, as well as their dysregulation, remains elusive in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) coexisting with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Investigating these metabolites could offer valuable insights into the pathophy-siology of NAFLD in T2DM.
Aim: To identify potential metabolite biomarkers capable of distinguishing between NAFLD and T2DM.
Article Synopsis
- Oral administration of resveratrol can slow down the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN), but how it works is still not fully understood.
- A study using db/db mice showed that resveratrol improves key indicators of DN by enhancing gut health and altering gut microbiota composition.
- Fecal microbiota transplants from healthy mice treated with resveratrol also improved kidney function and gut health in db/db mice, highlighting the connection between gut microbiota and kidney disease.
