Core Tip This review underscores the critical role of gut microbiota in sepsis pathophysiology, revealing how gut dysbiosis exacerbates multi-organ dysfunction via organ-gut axes (gut-liver, gut-lung, gut-brain, gut-kidney, and gut-heart). Innovative microbiota-targeted therapies, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation, show potential to restore microbial balance, reduce systemic inflammation, and improve outcomes. By synthesizing current evidence, this manuscript provides a foundation for integrating microbiota-based approaches into sepsis management frameworks, offering a novel perspective for mitigating the global burden of sepsis.
