Association between Levels of Trimethylamine N-Oxide and Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Adeleh Khodabakhshi et al.

Summary: This study found that there is no significant association between TAMO levels and cancer incidence. Subgroup analysis showed a negative correlation between urinary TMAO levels and cancer incidence, while a positive correlation was observed between serum TMAO levels and cancer incidence.

TMAO and Gut Microbial-Derived Metabolites TML and γBB Are Not Associated with Thrombotic Risk in Patients with Venous Thromboembolism

Marina Canyelles et al.

Summary: This study found no differences in the concentrations of TMAO, gamma BB, and TML between controls and VTE patients. Thrombin generation tests showed a positive correlation with time parameters, but a negative correlation with peak height for these metabolites. There was no correlation between these gut metabolites and platelet function parameters.

Targeting cancer-specific metabolic pathways for developing novel cancer therapeutics

Soumik Pal et al.

Summary: Cancer is a heterogeneous disease characterized by various genetic and phenotypic aberrations, and cancer cells meet their uncontrolled proliferation demands through metabolic reprogramming. Despite increasing understanding of tumor metabolism, therapeutic interventions targeting these specific dysregulations have been largely ineffective in clinical trials.

Circulating Carnitine Levels and Breast Cancer: A Matched Retrospective Case-Control Study

Jiayi Zhang et al.

Summary: This study found an association between blood carnitine compounds and breast cancer through a retrospective case-control study. Higher levels of malonylcarnitine, decenoylcarnitine, and decadienoylcarnitine were associated with decreased odds of breast cancer, while higher levels of butyrylcarnitine were associated with increased odds of the disease.

The microbiome-derived metabolite TMAO drives immune activation and boosts responses to immune checkpoint blockade in pancreatic cancer

Gauri Mirji et al.

Summary: The gut microbe-derived metabolite TMAO enhances antitumor immunity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by promoting an immunostimulatory tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) phenotype and activating effector T cell response. TMAO exerts antitumor effects through potentiating the type I interferon pathway.

The current and future incidence and mortality of gastric cancer in 185 countries, 2020-40: A population-based modelling study

Eileen Morgan et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the global patterns of gastric cancer in 2020 and predicted the burden for 2040. The incidence and mortality rates of gastric cancer varied by sex, country, and level of human development. Eastern Asia had the highest rates, while Africa had the lowest. The predicted burden of gastric cancer is expected to increase by 2040.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Microbial Community Heterogeneity Within Colorectal Neoplasia and its Correlation With Colorectal Carcinogenesis

Weixin Liu et al.

Summary: The study revealed that the microbial communities within colorectal neoplasia are heterogeneous, with variations in abundance of CRC-associated pathobionts playing a role in CRC development. Intra-neoplasia changes in microbial abundance were observed along the adenoma-carcinoma sequence. Furthermore, significant differences in intra-neoplasia microbiota were found between biopsies with and without genetic alterations, highlighting the association of intratumoral microbial heterogeneity with genetic changes.

Gut Metabolite Trimethylamine-N-Oxide in Atherosclerosis: From Mechanism to Therapy

BingYu Wang et al.

Summary: Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease linked to substances like trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) in the gut flora. TMAO is considered an independent risk factor for malignant cardiovascular events, but its impact on patients with cardiovascular diseases remains controversial.

The interplay between Helicobacter pylori and gastrointestinal microbiota

Chieh-Chang Chen et al.

Summary: The complex population of microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract interacts with the host and itself, influencing health and disease development. Helicobacter pylori colonization affects the gastric microenvironment, thus impacting gastric and potentially colonic microbiota. Understanding how H. pylori shapes GI microbiota and the effects of eradication therapy on colonic microbiota are important areas of research.
