Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors primarily affecting individuals over age 50 years. Recent studies have suggested that dysbiosis gut microbiota, a community microorganisms in human gut, closely associated with occurrence and development CRC. Additionally, inflammatory factors (IFs) also been reported to play significant role However, causal relationships between IFs, CRC remain unclear. In this study, we performed Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using publicly available genome-wide association study (GWAS) data explore relationship The microbiota GWAS were obtained from MiBioGen while IFs derived comprehensive three independent cohorts. Causal was conducted appropriate instrumental variables (IVs) statistical models.

Prior studies have established correlations between gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis, circulating metabolite alterations, and gastric cancer (GC) risk. However, the causal nature of these associations remains uncertain. We utilized summary data from genome-wide association (GWAS) on GM (European, n=8,956), blood metabolites n=120,241; East Asian, n=4,435), GC n=476,116; n=167,122) to perform a bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis, investigating effects Additionally, we conducted mediation analysis (two-step MR) identify potential mediators in GM-GC relationship. identified twelve negative seven positive specific taxa For metabolites, traits were found be significantly associated with reduced risk European population, findings subsequently validated Asian cohort. Three showed five metabolic traits: Bacteroidia class Bacteroidales order positively correlated (all P < 0.013), while Bacteroides OTU97_27 exhibited correlation one (P = 0.007).
