Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common and deadly cancers in the world and is a typical inflammatory tumor. In recent years, the incidence of CRC has been increasing year by year. There is evidence that the intake of high-fat diet and overweight are associated with the incidence of CRC, among which bile acids play a key role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Studies on the relationship between bile acid metabolism and the occurrence of CRC have gradually become a hot topic, improving the understanding of metabolic factors in the etiology of colorectal cancer. Meanwhile, intestinal flora also plays an important role in the occurrence and development of CRC In this review, the classification of bile acids and their role in promoting the occurrence of CRC are discussed, and we highlights how a high-fat diet affects bile acid metabolism and destroys the integrity of the intestinal barrier and the effects of gut bacteria.
