Dear all -
I'm trying to understand if it might be an idea to treat Asthma by using small molecules produced by bacterial microbiomes. I read that several small molecules such as Ac, Propionate and others can help treating Asthma in mice - any further studies in humans?? Are there any phase 1-3 clinical trial studies on that?
Thank you and have a nice day
Acetate or propionate don't have any direct role in treatment of any disease and in this case Asthma. These can be used as a supplement as they can help the gut microflora, or pH balance, however, they do not have any other effect/property which could directly be involved in the treatment.
I agree with Abhijeet Singh. I will attach a paper that you can read, it has information about the microbiome and asthma
