One of the mechanisms of CKD progression involves a disordered inter-organ relationship between the kidneys and the intestine, known as the kidney-gut axis. In CKD, two pathological gut conditions\u2014disturbed gut microbiota composition called uremic dysbiosis and leaky gut\u2014contribute to the progression of CKD. Dysbiosis is associated with the increased production of gut-derived uremic toxins, leaky gut, and chronic systemic inflammation, leading to worsening uremia, which in turn aggravates the gut condition. This vicious cycle should be a target of the therapeutic strategy against CKD. The modulation of uremic dysbiosis, including prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics, has been a typical treatment approach, although clinical evidence for their efficacy has been insufficient. Some non-antibiotic drugs have an impact on human gut bacteria that are believed to play a role in their clinical efficacy on kidney function. Nutrition therapies, including a low-protein diet, dietary fiber, a Mediterranean diet, and whole grains, positively influence gut microbiota composition and have been linked to a decreased risk of CKD. Novel strategies are currently being explored, involving the use of postbiotics, microbiome sequencing techniques, and fecal microbiota transplantation, although clinical application remains to be tested. Human trials investigating the above-mentioned interventions remain inconclusive due to several limitations, including dietary variability and genetic factors. Future research should focus on the development of more effective probiotics, prebiotics, and microbial metabolism-modifying drugs, not only for CKD but for other systemic diseases as well.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu17121961","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,9]],"date-time":"2025-06-09T08:22:34Z","timestamp":1749457354000},"page":"1961","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Kidney-Gut Axis in Chronic Kidney Disease: Therapeutic Perspectives from Microbiota Modulation and Nutrition"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Shu","family":"Wakino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Tokushima University Graduate School, Tokushima 770-8503, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3113-4522","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kazuhiro","family":"Hasegawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Tokushima University Graduate School, Tokushima 770-8503, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0488-0098","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Masanori","family":"Tamaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Tokushima University Graduate School, Tokushima 770-8503, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Masanori","family":"Minato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Tokushima University Graduate School, Tokushima 770-8503, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Taizo","family":"Inagaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nephrology, Institute of Biomedical Sciences, Tokushima University Graduate School, Tokushima 770-8503, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5","DOI":"10.1186\/s12967-018-1756-4","article-title":"Microbiome\u2013metabolome reveals the contribution of the gut\u2013kidney axis in kidney disease","volume":"17","author":"Chen","year":"2019","journal-title":"J.
