Abstract
The adaptor protein Caspase Recruitment Domain Family Member 9 (CARD9) plays an indispensable role in innate immunity. Recent studies indicate that dysregulated CARD9 is a critical risk factor in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). This review provides novel insights into the functions of CARD9 in CRC, particularly in delineating its role in disrupting the host microbe balance, fueling gut microbiota metabolism and inducing systemic immunoglobulin G (IgG) antifungal antibodies. These pathways provide important information that can potentially be used for therapeutic innovation in developing potential vaccines for CRC.
