Popis: Resistant starch (RS) is a fermentable dietary fiber shown to alter gut hormones and modify the gut microbiome. Because RS impacts the gut microbiota, we hypothesize that RS changes gut-derived signals reaching the liver by altering the gut microbiota and, in turn altering liver metabolism. To assess the effects of RS on the liver metabolome under obesogenic conditions, male C57Bl/6J mice were fed a 45% fat diet for 10 weeks supplemented with type 2 RS (10% by wt) or maltodextrin (n=15/group). As expected, increased cecal weights (by 55%, p
