Short-chain fatty acids synergistically interact with doxorubicin against gastric adenocarcinoma cells

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are microbial metabolites, also known as postbiotics, produced by the gut microbiotame, playing essential rolesessential in maintaining gut health and exerting potential anticancer effects. This study investigates the antiproliferative effects of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) salts—magnesium acetate (A), sodium propionate (P), and sodium butyrate (B)—and their combinations with doxorubicin (Dox) in AGS gastric adenocarcinoma cells.
