Description

Jiahuan Helen He and co-authors review how gut microbes join the slow clogging of arteries, in a 2025 paper. Atherosclerosis builds fatty plaques in vessel walls, and gut bacteria — through the chemicals they release — increasingly look like accomplices. Single studies disagree, so the review fuses three kinds of evidence: gene surveys of the gut community, chemical profiles, and protein data.

Across studies, pro-inflammatory species often bloomed in patients while helpful fiber-fermenting species thinned out. Microbe-made chemicals such as trimethylamine N-oxide tracked with disease, using carotid artery disease as the worked example. The combined picture points to gut targets — diet, microbes, or their chemicals — for future heart protection.
