Catalog of tumor microbiotas finds bacteria living inside many cancer cells

Researchers have created a catalog of the bacteria associated with all the cancer types. The findings could help to enhance the actions of anticancer drugs.

Bacterial viruses could modulate the gut microbiota to fight colorectal cancer

Researchers developed a new tool to modulate the gut microbiota for neutralizing the tumor-promoting microenvironment.

How gut bacteria contribute to the development of colorectal cancer

A new study supports the idea that the gut microbiota composition can vary in abundance and function during the development of colorectal cancer.

Gut microbiota composition could predict cancer treatment outcomes

According to a new study published in the journal Microbiome, cancer treatment outcomes can be modulated by the levels of specific gut bacteria.

“There is a strong relationship between gut dysbiosis, metabolic diseases and cancer”

Rémy Burcelin explains how understanding the link between gut microbiota, metabolic syndrome and cancer could be useful from a therapeutic point of view.

Vaginal microbes may help to identify women at risk for cervical cancer

Researchers have identified potential microbial markers that could identify women with HPV infection at risk for progression to cervical cancer.

Microbiota DNA in the blood could be used to diagnose cancer

Cancer-associated microbial signatures in the blood could help to detect the disease at its early stage, a study published in Nature has found.

Prostate cancer: gut microbiome regulation may reduce radiotherapy side effects

Radiotherapy against prostate cancer may cause serious intestinal side effects. We discussed the impact of the local microbiota with Miguel Reis Ferreira.

Why we need to study tissue microbiome in cancer

The existence of a tumor microbiota have a lot of implications. We discussed this topic with Sandrine Miller-Montgomery (UC San Diego).
