Summary of metabolic pathways of the DFC involved in glucose lipid metabolism and amino acid metabolism. Pyruvate and glycolysis/glycolysis pathways are the main pathways regulating glucose metabolism and energy metabolism, and the lactate produced by this pathway can be converted to other short-chain fatty acids such as propionic acid and butyric acid. The alanine, aspartate, and glutamate pathways produce pyruvate and gibberellic acid, respectively, which participate in the citric acid cycle for energy production, with gibberellic acid, citric acid, and succinic acid being intermediates of the TCA cycle. Note Red = upregulated metabolites; Blue = downregulated metabolites
