ABSTRACT
In recent years, there have been increasing studies on the role of microorganisms in pancreatic cancer which show that bacteria and fungi are closely associated with pancreatic cancer. In the past, the pancreas has usually been considered as a sterile organ. Recent studies, however, show that microbiome exists in the pancreas. Bacteria can migrate from the intestine to the pancreas. Changing the composition of the microbiome may have positive effects on treatment of pancreatic cancer. This article reviews the relationship between gastrointestinal microbiome and pancreatic cancer.
