Black rice diet alleviates colorectal cancer development through modulating tryptophan metabolism and activating AHR pathway
•The black rice diet (BRD) can slow down the development of colorectal tumors in ApcMin/+ and azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium (AOM/DSS) colorectal cancer (CRC) model mice. •The BRD increases the abundance of intestinal probiotics, such as Bacteroides uniformis and Lactobacillus, while reducing potential intestinal pathogens. •The upregulated metabolites indole and indole-3-lactic acid in BRD are ligands of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway, which slow down the development of CRC by activating intestinal AHR receptor gene expression. •A moderate consumption of BRD is expected to become a potential strategy for the prevention and treatment of CRC by improving gut microbiota and metabolites.
