Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most commonly detected malignancy in men worldwide. PCa is a slow-growing cancer with the absence of symptoms at early stages. The pathogenesis has not been entirely understood including the key risk factors related to PCa development like diet and microbiota derived metabolites. Microbiota may influence the host's immunological responses, inflammatory responses, and metabolic pathways, which may be crucial for the development and metastasis. Similarly, short-chain fatty acids, methylamines, hippurate, bile acids, and other metabolites generated by microbiota may have potential roles in cancer inflammation and progression of cancer. Most studies have focused on the role of metabolites and their pathways involved in chronic inflammation, tumor initiation, proliferation, and progression. In summary, the review discusses the role of microbiota and microbial-derived metabolite-built strategies in inflammation and progression of the PCa.
