Abstract Evidence from previous studies have demonstrated that gut microbiota are closely associated with occurrence of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), yet the causal link between the two is not well known. In this study, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to determine the possible causal association between gut microbiota with IC/BPS. Gut microbiota summary level data were derived from the genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted by MiBioGen and the IC/BPS GWAS summary level data were obtained from the GWAS Catalog. Next, we performed an MR study to investigate the causal link between gut microbiota and IC/BPS. The primary method for causal analysis was the inverse variance weighted (IVW), and the MR results were validated through multiple sensitivity analyses. A positive association was found between IC/BPS and eight gut microbial taxa, including genus Bacteroides, genus Haemophilus, genus Veillonella, genus Coprococcus1, genus Butyricimonas, family Bacteroidaceae, family Christensenellaceae, and order Lactobacillales. Sensitivity analysis revealed lack of significant pleiotropy or heterogeneity in the obtained results. This MR analysis reveals that a causal association exists between some gut microbiota with IC/BPS. This finding may is expected to guide future research and development of IC/BPS preventions and treatments based on the bladder-gut axis. However, given the clinical complexity and diagnostic challenges of IC/BPS, along with the limitations of using large-scale GWAS summary data for analysis, our MR results require further validation through additional research. |
