Description
Zhaoyang Yin, Ge Gong, and Jian Yin review two-way traffic between spinal cord injury and gut microbes in a 2026 article. Cord injury disrupts bowel control and unbalances gut bacteria, while bacterial products can cross into the cord and fan inflammation there. The authors sum up lab and clinical work on this gut-spinal axis.
Microbe shifts may mark how severe an injury is, and products such as short-chain fatty acids may shape the second wave of damage. Many studies try shifting gut microbes to aid recovery, yet no standard, proven clinical treatment has emerged. Naming the pathways clearly is a step toward trials that target the gut to help the cord heal.
