Summary: Carbon-based nanomaterials (CNMs) have been found in humans, and their integration into the endogenous carbon flow through the gut microbiota has been uncovered. The gut microbiota ferments CNMs, incorporating inorganic carbon into organic butyrate. Butyrate-producing bacteria prefer CNMs as their carbon source, and excessive butyrate derived from microbial CNMs fermentation affects the function of intestinal stem cells. This study highlights the need to assess the transformation of CNMs and their health risk via the gut-centric physiological and anatomical pathways.
