Colorectal cancer (CRC) constitutes a significant global health challenge, with recent studies underscoring the pivotal role of gut microbiome in its pathogenesis and progression. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has emerged as compelling therapeutic approach, offering potential to modulate microbial composition optimize treatment outcomes. Research suggests that specific bacterial strains are closely linked CRC, influencing both clinical management interventions. Moreover, microbiome's impact on immunotherapy responsiveness heralds new avenues for personalized medicine. Despite promise FMT, safety concerns, particularly immunocompromised individuals, remain critical issue. Clinical outcomes vary widely, influenced by genetic predispositions methodologies employed. Additionally, rigorous donor selection screening protocols paramount minimize risks maximize efficacy. The current body literature advocates establishment standardized further trials substantiate FMT's CRC management. As our understanding deepens, FMT is poised become cornerstone treatment, imperative continued research validation.

The gut-brain-cancer axis represents a novel and intricate connection between the gut microbiota, neurobiology, cancer progression. Recent advances have accentuated significant role of microbiota metabolites in modulating systemic processes that influence both brain health tumorigenesis. This paper explores emerging concept metabolite-mediated modulation within connection, focusing on key such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), tryptophan derivatives, secondary bile acids, lipopolysaccharides (LPS). While microbiota's impact immune regulation, neuroinflammation, tumor development is well established, gaps remain grasping how specific contribute to neuro-cancer interactions. We discuss with potential implications for neurobiology cancer, indoles polyamines, which yet be extensively studied. Furthermore, we review preclinical clinical evidence linking dysbiosis, altered metabolite profiles, tumors, showcasing limitations research gaps, particularly human longitudinal studies. Case studies investigating microbiota-based interventions, including dietary changes, fecal transplantation, probiotics, demonstrate promise but also indicate hurdles translating these findings therapies. concludes call standardized multi-omics approaches bi-directional frameworks integrating microbiome, neuroscience, oncology develop personalized therapeutic strategies patients.
