Exploring the impact of microbial dysbiosis on ovarian cancer and the therapeutic potential of probiotics

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Ovarian cancer has been linked to the microbiome as a potential environmental contributor, but how this association relates to tumor progression remains unclear. By comparing tumor and nontumor tissues, we identified a severity‐associated microbial and metabolic signature and showed that probiotics can partially restore immune balance and slow tumor ...
