Here, we aim to improve our understanding of various colorectal cancer (CRC) risk factors (obesity, unhealthy diet, and gut microbiota/metabolome alteration), analyzing 120 patients with colon polyps, divided in normal-weight (NW) or overweight/obese (OB). Dietary habits data (validated EPIC questionnaires) revealed a higher consumption of processed meat among OB vs. NW patients. Both mucosa-associated microbiota (MAM) on polyps and lumen-associated microbiota (LAM) analyses uncovered distinct bacterial signatures in the two groups. Importantly, we found an enrichment of the pathogenic species in MAM of OB patients, regardless of their polyp stage. We observed distinct mucosal-associated metabolome signatures, with OB patients showing increased pyroglutamic acid and reduced niacin levels, and performed microbiota-metabolome integrated analysis. These findings support a model where different risk factors may contribute to tumorigenesis in OB vs. NW patients, highlighting the potential impact of processed meat consumption and on CRC development among OB patients.
在此,我们旨在加深对各种结直肠癌(CRC)风险因素(肥胖、不健康饮食以及肠道微生物群/代谢组改变)的理解,对120例结肠息肉患者进行分析,这些患者分为正常体重(NW)组或超重/肥胖(OB)组。饮食习惯数据(经过验证的EPIC问卷)显示,与NW组患者相比,OB组患者加工肉类的摄入量更高。息肉上的黏膜相关微生物群(MAM)和肠腔相关微生物群(LAM)分析均揭示了两组中不同的细菌特征。重要的是,我们发现OB组患者的MAM中致病菌种富集,无论其息肉处于何种阶段。我们观察到不同的黏膜相关代谢组特征,OB组患者焦谷氨酸水平升高,烟酸水平降低,并进行了微生物群-代谢组综合分析。这些发现支持了一种模型,即不同的风险因素可能在OB组与NW组患者的肿瘤发生中起作用,突出了加工肉类消费对OB组患者结直肠癌发展的潜在影响。
