Microbiome dysbiosis in lung cancer: from composition to therapy
The correlations between microbiota dysbiosis and cancer have gained extensive attention and been widely explored. As a leading cancer diagnosis worldwide, lung cancer poses a great threat to human health. The healthy human lungs are consistently exposed to external...
Deciphering the Microbiome-Immunity-Cancer Axis
Trillions of microbes inhabit human body surfaces and cavities and interact with the host constantly. Recently, it came to light that the microbiota is a critical regulator of tumorigenesis and impacts outcomes of various cancer therapies. Pathogenic bacteria can...
Healthy gut microbiome improves success of cancer treatment
The composition of the gut microbiome has been associated with clinical responses to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment, but there is limited consensus on the specific microbiome characteristics linked to the clinical benefits of ICIs. We performed shotgun...
