The combination of metagenome and metabolome to compare the differential effects and mechanisms of fructose and sucrose on the metabolic disorders and gut microbiota <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i>

Abstract

), metabolites (glutamate, fructose 1,6-biosphosphate, citric acid), and genes encoding enzymes (pyruvate kinase, 6-phosphofructokinase 1, fructokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, aconitate hydratase, isocitrate dehydrogenase 3), suggesting that they may be the key differential factors in the process of fructose and sucrose catabolism. Therefore, the changes in gut microbiome mediated by fructose and sucrose are important reasons for their differential effects on host health and metabolism.
