Feruloylated oligosaccharides and ferulic acid alter gut microbiome to alleviate diabetic syndrome.

Gut microbiome has been proven to be involved in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Additionally, increasing evidence showed that the composition of gut microbiome is highly associated with the outcome of T2D therapy. Previously we demonstrated that feruloylated oligosaccharides (FOs) and ferulic acid (FA) alleviated diabetic syndrome in rats, but the detailed mechanism has not been explored yet.
