Second, the precise molecular targets and signaling pathways modulated by AP remain partially understood
By activating the AMPK pathway, MOTS-C helps regulate energy balance and improve overall metabolic function
In vitro experiments using primary hepatocytes confirm that acetate supplementation reverses these effects by activating the AMPKPPARA axis, underscoring the critical role of microbial-derived acetate in regulating hepatic energy homeostasis 169

This population plays a crucial role in triggering innate immune response by releasing pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, nitric oxide, prostaglandins, growth factors, and superoxide species that can modulate secondary injury and recovery (Loane and Byrnes, 2010)
