Article Synopsis
  • Shen-Bai-Jie-Du decoction (SBJDD) is a traditional Chinese herbal formula that shows promise in reducing colorectal adenoma recurrence and carcinogenesis, yet its mechanism of action is not fully understood.
  • A study involving twenty-one colorectal adenoma patients and Apc mice assessed SBJDD's effects on gut microbiota, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and various biological markers.
  • Results indicated that SBJDD not only improved gut microbiota and SCFA production but also reduced adenoma formation, influenced inflammatory cytokines, and activated specific receptors related to gut health.

Methods: Untargeted gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolic profiling approach was applied to identify candidate metabolites.
