Core Tip	This editorial offers an in-depth look at the original research by Wu et al in the World Journal of Gastroenterology, focusing on the critical role of gut microbiota in Crohn's disease (CD) pathogenesis. This study utilized fecal microbiota transplantation in mouse models to shed light on the complex relationship between the gut microbiota, mesenteric adipose tissue, and creeping fat, highlighting inflammation and fibrosis in CD-affected tissues. This underscores the influence of microbiota dysbiosis in CD and complements the findings with a discussion of emerging research on the role of fungi in CD pathogenesis and chronicity, propelled by advancements in next-generation sequencing technology.
