Metabolic syndrome (Mets) is an important contributor to morbidity and mortality in cardiovascular, liver, neurological, reproductive diseases. Short-chain fatty acid (SCFA), organismal energy donor, has recently been demonstrated increasing number of studies be molecule ameliorating immuno-inflammation, causative factor Mets, improve lipid distribution, blood glucose, body weight levels animal models Mets. This study reviews recent research advances on SCFA Mets from immune-inflammatory perspective, including complications dominated by chronic inflammation, as well the fact that these findings also contribute understanding specific mechanisms which gut flora metabolites metabolic processes humans. review proposes emerging role for inflammatory followed identification major ambiguities further understand anti-inflammatory potential this substance In addition, novel strategies modulate treatment may help mitigate prognosis its complications.

Estrogen receptors (ERs) play a critical role in breast cancer (BC) development and progression, with ERα being oncogenic ERβ exhibiting tumor-suppressive properties. The interaction between ER signaling other molecular pathways, such as PI3K/AKT/mTOR, influences tumor growth endocrine resistance. Emerging research highlights the of prebiotics modulating gut microbiota, which may influence estrogen metabolism, immune function, therapeutic responses BC. This review explores impact on receptor modulation, microbiota composition, regulation, metabolic pathways cancer. potential adjunctive therapies to enhance treatment efficacy mitigate chemotherapy-related side effects is discussed. A comprehensive analysis recent preclinical clinical studies was conducted, examining reprogramming short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) derived from prebiotic fermentation epigenetic regulation resistance also evaluated. Prebiotics were found modulate microbiota-estrogen axis, reduce inflammation, responses. SCFAs demonstrated selective downregulation reprogramming, suppressing growth. Synbiotic interventions effects, improving quality life patients. offer promising avenue for prevention therapy by pathways. Future trials are needed validate their treatments management.
