Gut microbiome‐derived metabolites show promise in cancer research and therapy
Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.The metabolites produced by the gut microbiome, which are subject to regulation by multiple factors, play a pivotal role in the progression of various types of cancer. These metabolites not only function as potential biomarkers for the early detection and monitoring of tumor development, but also actively participate in cancer therapeutic processes ...

Bacteriocins, spite and virulence [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2004 There has been much interest in using social evolution theory to predict the damage to a host from parasite infection, termed parasite virulence. Most of this work has focused on how high kinship between the parasites infecting a host can select for more prudent exploitation of the host, leading to a negative relationship between virulence and parasite
