Ceramide synthesis was indeed required for the effect of palmitate addition on the activity of AKT/PKB since pharmacological inhibition of ceramide synthesis or siRNA-mediated knockdown of several enzymes required for ceramide biosynthesis (serine palmitoyltransferase, ceramide synthases, or dihydroceramide desaturase) completely blocks the effects of palmitate on insulin signaling
SCFAs, including acetate, propionate, and butyrate, exert protective effects on kidney diseases through the modulation of inflammation and oxidative stress, primarily via the activation of G protein-coupled receptors, leading to reduced pro-inflammatory cytokine production, lowered oxidative stress markers, thereby improved renal function ( Table 1 ) [89]
