Abstract

Abstract Some plant polysaccharides cannot be digested by humans, arriving intact to the colon, where they are fermented by a distinct group of anaerobic beneficial bacterial species ( Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Roseburia, Faecalibacterium, Anaerostipes, Coprococcus , etc.). As a result of this fermentation, in the case of some of these compounds, diverse short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are produced in situ in the colon lumen, mainly acetate, propionate, and butyrate. Acetate and propionate possess principally energetic effects for eukaryotic cells. Butyrate is the preferred energy source for normal colonocytes, contributing to their normal homeostasis, and it is a strong antitumour compound for tumour colonocytes, downregulating cell multiplication pathways and promoting pro-apoptotic routes. These polysaccharides that increase beneficial colon bacteria populations in the colon are called prebiotics. This review will describe their different dietary sources and structures, as well as the metabolic pathways leading to SCFA and the antitumour and anti-inflammatory effect of these SCFA.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
