Supplementary Figure 10 shows the effects of B. fragilis conditioned medium (CM) on HCC cells, construction of Enolase-overexpressing E. coli MG1655 strain, and the important role of Vimentin in B. fragilis mediated HCC promotion.

Supplementary Figure 2 shows the association between the liver dysfunction and gut/liver microbial dysbiosis.

Supplementary Figure 1 shows the comparison of the biochemical parameters between the HCC patients and healthy subjects.

Supplementary Figure 11 shows that the gut dysbiosis in HCC patients compromises intestinal barrier integrity, enabling the translocation of live pathobionts such as B. fragilis to the liver. Multisite biopsy analysis of the intrahepatic microbiome and host transcriptome revealed that the presence of gut pathobionts in tumor regions positively correlated with the expression of host cytokines and oncogenes. Concordantly, oral gavage of B. fragilis in multiple HCC mouse models exacerbated cell proliferation and activated pro-inflammatory and oncogenic signaling pathways that drive hepatocarcinogenesis.

Supplementary Figure 5 shows the B. fragilis-surrounded immune characterization by co-detection by indexing (CODEX) multiplexed staining, combined with 16S rRNA FISH for B. fragilis detection.

Supplementary Figure 3 shows the Sstool and hepatic microbiome profiles.

Supplementary Figure 4 shows the intrahepatic microbiome heterogeneity in association with host gene transcription.

Supplementary Figure 6 shows that the fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) of HCC stool to germ-free mice promotes gut barrier disruption.

Supplementary Figure 7 shows that the fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) of HCC stool to germ-free mice promotes liver inflammation.
