Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), derived from the diet and the microbiota, serve as crucial links between the diet, gut microbiota, metabolism, immunity, and cancer. They function as energy sources through β-oxidation and regulate macromolecular synthesis, G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) activities, protein modifications, signaling pathways, and gene expression in cells within the tumor microenvironment, particularly in tumor and immune cells. The critical role of SCFAs in maintaining normal homeostasis and influencing tumor progression highlights the potential of targeting SCFA-mediated cellular processes for cancer prevention and treatment.
