Emerging Understanding of Gut Microbiome in Colorectal Cancer and Food-Related Intervention Strategies

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers, accounting for approximately 10% of all new cancer cases globally. An increasing number of studies have revealed that the gut microbiome is strongly associated with the pathogenesis and progression of CRC. Based on these advances, this review delineates the mechanistic links between specific microbes and CRC, as well as emerging food-related nutritional intervention strategies. In vivo and in vitro studies have pinpointed the...
