Abstract
This study revealed that gut microbial dysbiosis may cause Budd-Chiari syndrome (B-CS). Gut dysbiosis enhanced intestinal permeability, and toxic metabolites and imbalanced cytokines activated the immune system. Consequently, the escalation of causative factors led to their concentration in the portal vein, thereby compromising both the liver parenchyma and outflow tract. Therefore, we proposed that gut microbial dysbiosis induced immune imbalance by chronic systemic inflammation, which contributed to the B-CS development. Furthermore, Prevotella may mediate inflammation development and immune imbalance, showing potential in B-CS pathogenesis.
