This study aimed to evaluate the impact of human fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on the progression of CRC in a murine model. Methods: CRC was chemically induced in BALB\/c mice using azoxymethane\/dextran sulfate sodium (AOM\/DSS). Mice were transferred with GM via FMT and divided into two experimental groups according to the microbiota source (healthy donors or CRC patients). A positive control group (AOM\/DSS without FMT) and a negative control group (no CRC induction or FMT) were included. Clinical parameters, histopathological analyses, and cytokine profiling were performed. Results: Mice receiving FMT, particularly from CRC patients, exhibited increased mitotic activity, dysplasia, neoplastic proliferation, structural alterations in the colon, and more pronounced GALT hyperplasia. At the immunological level, both FMT groups (healthy and CRC-derived) showed modulation of IL-1\u03b2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, and TNF-\u03b1 compared to the positive control. Conclusions: Human GM transplantation modulated the colonic microenvironment through histopathological and immunological changes, influencing CRC progression in this murine model. These findings highlight the role of GM in shaping CRC development and suggest that human-derived microbiota may significantly impact tumor dynamics.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/cimb48010015","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,23]],"date-time":"2025-12-23T14:05:22Z","timestamp":1766498722000},"page":"15","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Effect of Gut Microbiota Alteration on Colorectal Cancer Progression in an In Vivo Model: Histopathological and Immunological Evaluation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"48","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4321-1417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juliana","family":"Montoya Montoya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical and Experimental Mycology Group, Corporaci\u00f3n para Investigaciones Biol\u00f3gicas (CIB-UPB-UdeA-UDES), Carrera 72 A # 78B-141, Medellin 050034, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7659-7518","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizabeth Correa","family":"G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical and Experimental Mycology Group, Corporaci\u00f3n para Investigaciones Biol\u00f3gicas (CIB-UPB-UdeA-UDES), Carrera 72 A # 78B-141, Medellin 050034, Colombia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4207-7543","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jorge Humberto","family":"Tabares Guevara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infettare Research Group, Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, Av.
