Gastrointestinal Microbiome Dysbiosis in Cancer Development: Mechanisms and Biomarker Potential
MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 5, October 2026.Dysbiosis of the gastrointestinal microbiome plays a role in carcinogenesis by inducing chronic inflammation, DNA damage, and activation of signaling pathways such as NF‐κB, STAT3, and Wnt/β‐catenin. Microorganisms such as Helicobacter pylori, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Bacteroides fragilis promote the development of gastrointestinal tumors through ...
