Application of gut microbiome in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Gut microbiome is closely related to human health. Changes in intestinal microbial composition promote the development of tumors. Specific intestinal microorganisms and their metabolites regulate host physiological functions and tumor microenvironment, significantly affecting the anti-cancer treatment response and its adverse events. Strategies targeting gut microbiome have shown promising prospects in diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
