Spray Dried Inulin-Montmorillonite Hybrids Alleviate High-Fat Diet-Induced Inflammatory and Metabolic Dysregulation in Rats

This paper evaluates a spray-dried inulin-montmorillonite hybrid that reduces free fatty acid release and weight gain in HFD-fed rats, while promoting beneficial gut microbiota changes.

Microbiome-Dependent Functional Responses to Structurally Distinct Oligosaccharides Revealed by Metaproteomics

The paper uses metaproteomics to show that gut microbiomes have personalized functional responses to different oligosaccharides, highlighting the need for individualized prebiotic strategies.
