Gut microbiota imbalance and colorectal cancer

Abstract: The gut microbiota acts as a real organ. The symbiotic interactions between resident micro-organisms and the digestive tract highly contribute to maintain the gut homeostasis. However, alterations to the microbiome caused by environmental changes (e.g., infection, diet and/or lifestyle) can disturb this symbiotic relationship and promote disease, such as inflammatory bowel diseases and cancer. Colorectal cancer is a complex association of tumoral cells, non-neoplastic cells and a large amount of micro-organism… Show more

“…The Firmicutes:Bacteriodetes ( F:B ) ratio is frequently reported in cohort studies investigating the relationship between intestinal dysbiosis and CRC 7. However, neither capsule nor drink intake was associated with statistically significant changes in the F:B ratio (see online supplementary figure 6).…”

“…Gut microbiota can influence the normal develop ment and function of the mucosal immune system, such as modification of T-cell repertoires and T-helper cell cytokine profiles (24)(25)(26). Intestinal epithelial cells maintain a moderate immune response against, or tolerance for, non-pathogenic bacteria via Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which recognize particular molecular motifs of the pathogens (27).…”

“…Стро-гие анаэробы, включая Bacteroides, Eubacterium, Bifidobacterium, Fusobacterium, Peptostreptococcus и Atopobium, составляют основную, а факультативные анаэробы, такие как Lactobacilli, Enterococci, Streptococci и Enterobacteriaceae, -меньшую (примерно в 1000 раз) часть микробиоты толстого кишечника. В тонком кишечнике на долю Bacteroidetes и Actinobacteria при-ходится лишь 50 % от общего числа видов, заселяю-щих кишечник [11].…”
