Abstract The perturbations of the gut microbiota and metabolites are closely associated with progression inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, inconsistent findings across studies impede a comprehensive understanding their roles in IBD potential as reliable diagnostic biomarkers. To address this challenge, here we comprehensively analyze 9 metagenomic 4 metabolomics cohorts from different populations. Through cross-cohort integrative analysis (CCIA), identify consistent characteristic commensal microbiota. Especially, three bacteria, namely Asaccharobacter celatus , Gemmiger formicilis Erysipelatoclostridium ramosum which rarely reported IBD.

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) have become a widely consumed food category in modern diets. However, their impact on gut health is raising increasing concerns. This review investigates how UPFs the microbiome and barrier, emphasizing dysbiosis increased permeability. UPFs, characterized by high content of synthetic additives emulsifiers, low fiber content, are associated with decrease microbial diversity, lower levels beneficial bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, an increase pro-inflammatory microorganisms. These alterations community contribute to persistent inflammation, which various chronic disorders including metabolic syndrome, irritable bowel type 2 diabetes, colorectal cancer. In addition, may alter gut-brain axis, potentially affecting cognitive function mental health. Dietary modifications incorporating fiber, fermented foods, probiotics can help mitigate effects UPFs.

Accumulating evidence from studies in humans and animal models has elucidated that gut microbiota, acting as a complex ecosystem, contributes critically to colorectal cancer (CRC). The potential mechanisms often reported emphasize the vital role of carcinogenic activities specific pathogens, but fact, series metabolites produced exogenous dietary substrates or endogenous host compounds occupy decisive position similarly. Detrimental microbiota-derived such trimethylamine-N-oxide, secondary bile acids, hydrogen sulfide N-nitroso could reconstruct ecological composition metabolic activity intestinal microorganisms formulate microenvironment opens susceptibility stimuli. They are implicated occurrence, progression metastasis CRC through different mechanisms, including inducing inflammation DNA damage, activating tumorigenic signaling pathways regulating tumor immunity. In this review, we mainly summarized intimate relationship between detrimental CRC, updated current knowledge about pathogenesis. Then, multiple interventions targeting these for management were reviewed, diet modulation, probiotics/prebiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, well more precise measures engineered bacteria, phage therapy chemopreventive drugs. A better understanding interplay microbial would hold great promise against CRC.
