In past studies, the gut microbiota has been suggested to influence the occurrence, progression, proliferation, metastasis, and drug resistance of many different types of cancer, partly because the gut microbiota and its metabolites interact with the host at multiple body sites and are closely linked to the body&rsquo;s immune system, thereby influencing a variety of physiopathological processes. The gut microbiota can also help with diagnosis and prognosis as well as suggest therapeutic strategies, including cancer immunotherapy. Additionally, the intratumoral microbiota has become one of the hotspots of research today. However, the specific mechanisms by which the gut microbiota influences cancer development have not been elucidated. Currently, the relationship between microbiota-induced non-coding RNAs and cancer is also attracting more attention, offering a possible molecular mechanism by which the gut microbiota impacts cancer development. Therefore, this issue aims to explore the molecular mechanism of intestinal microbiome influencing cancer progression based on different perspectives and aims to contribute to new strategies for cancer treatment. This open access Topic will bring together original research and review articles on the gut microbiome and cancer.

However, its effectiveness is often hindered by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), where a complex interplay of tumor, stromal, and immune cells undermines antitumor responses and allows tumors to evade immune detection. This review explores innovative strategies to modify the TME and enhance immunotherapy outcomes, focusing on the therapeutic potential of engineered bacteria. These bacteria exploit the unique characteristics of the TME, such as abnormal vasculature and immune suppression, to selectively accumulate in tumors. Genetically modified bacteria can deliver therapeutic agents, including immune checkpoint inhibitors and cytokines, directly to tumor sites. This review highlights how bacterial therapeutics can target critical immune cells within the TME, such as myeloid-derived suppressor cells and tumor-associated macrophages, thereby promoting antitumor immunity. The combination of bacterial therapies with immune checkpoint inhibitors or adoptive cell transfer presents a promising strategy to counteract immune suppression. Continued research in this area could position bacterial agents as a powerful new modality to reshape the TME and enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy, particularly for tumors resistant to conventional treatments. <a href="/2072-6694/16/22/3810">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/16/22/3810/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1519508"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1519508"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1519508" data-cycle-prev="#prev1519508" data-cycle-progressive="#images1519508" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1519508-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g001-550.jpg?1731467587" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1519508" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1519508-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g002-550.jpg?1731467588'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1519508-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g003-550.jpg?1731467589'><p>Figure 3</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='3' data-target='article-1519508-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g004-550.jpg?1731467590'><p>Figure 4</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='4' data-target='article-1519508-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g005-550.jpg?1731467591'><p>Figure 5</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1519508-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g001-550.jpg?1731467587" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Advancements in bacterial-based therapies for cancer treatment.&lt;/p&gt; <strong style='display: block; margin-top: 10px; font-size: 18px;'><a style='color: #fff' href='/2072-6694/16/22/3810'>Full article</a></strong> "></a><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-03810/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-03810-g002-550.jpg?1731467588" title=" <strong>Figure 2</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Components of the TME.

Immune cells, such as tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), dendritic cells, NK cells, CD8+ T cells, B cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), play complex roles, either supporting or inhibiting tumor progression. Blood vessels within the TME are often abnormal, contributing to hypoxia. Cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors facilitate cell communications, influencing tumor behavior and response to treatment [&lt;a href=&quot;#B42-cancers-16-03810&quot; class=&quot;html-bibr&quot;&gt;42&lt;/a&gt;].

Bacterial agents used in cancer therapy are intended to boost the immune system, allowing it to better detect and fight cancer cells. These agents are important in cancer therapy because of their ability to interact with the immune system, disrupt the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and lyse tumor cells, thereby improving the immune response and the efficacy of existing immunotherapies and providing a promising avenue for novel cancer treatments. In recent years, advancements in technology and the attenuation of pathogenic strains have led researchers to concentrate on biochemical and molecular techniques to manipulate bacteria in the fight against cancer.

Their importance in the complex intestinal environment spans immune modulation, metabolic homeostasis, and the pathogenesis of chronic diseases. Dysbiosis, a microbial imbalance, can lead to a range of diseases affecting both individual organs and the entire organism. Microbial disruption triggers inflammatory responses in the intestinal mucosa and disturbs immune homeostasis, increasing susceptibility to toxins and their metabolites. These dynamics contribute to the development of intestinal lymphoma, necessitating rigorous investigation into the role of microbiota in tumorigenesis. The principles explored in this study extend beyond veterinary medicine to encompass broader human health concerns. There are remarkable parallels between the subtypes of lymphoproliferative disorders in animals and humans, particularly Hodgkin&rsquo;s lymphoma and non-Hodgkin&rsquo;s lymphoma. Understanding the etiology of a cancer of the lymphatic system formation is critical for developing both preventive strategies and therapeutic interventions, with the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes. The aim of this study is to discuss the optimal composition of the microbiome in dogs and cats and the potential alterations in the microbiota during the development of intestinal lesions, particularly intestinal lymphoma. Molecular and cellular analyses are also incorporated to detect inflammatory changes and carcinogenesis. A review of the literature on the connections between the gut microbiome and the development of lymphomas in dogs and cats is presented, along with potential diagnostic approaches for these cancers. <a href="/2072-6694/16/12/2255">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/16/12/2255/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1417102"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1417102"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1417102" data-cycle-prev="#prev1417102" data-cycle-progressive="#images1417102" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1417102-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-02255/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-02255-g001-550.jpg?1718708581" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1417102" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1417102-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-02255/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-02255-g002-550.jpg?1718708583'><p>Figure 2</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1417102-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-02255/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-02255-g001-550.jpg?1718708581" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;The origin of carcinogenesis associated with dysbiosis [&lt;a href=&quot;#B9-cancers-16-02255&quot; class=&quot;html-bibr&quot;&gt;9&lt;/a&gt;].&lt;/p&gt; <strong style='display: block; margin-top: 10px; font-size: 18px;'><a style='color: #fff' href='/2072-6694/16/12/2255'>Full article</a></strong> "></a><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-02255/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-02255-g002-550.jpg?1718708583" title=" <strong>Figure 2</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Comparison of microbiota in normobiosis, IBD and lymphoma.

Not all patients benefit from these treatments, however, and certain patients develop immune-related adverse events. Although the search for predictors of response to these drugs is a major field of research, these issues have yet to be resolved. It has been postulated that microbiota could play a relevant role in conditioning the response to cancer treatments; however, the human factor of intestinal permeability also needs to be considered as it is closely related to the regulation of host&ndash;microbiota interaction. In this article, we analyzed the possible relationship between the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors and the onset of immune-related adverse events, gut microbiota status, and intestinal membrane permeability. In a pioneering step, we also measured short-chain fatty acid content in feces. Although the correlation analyses failed to identify predictive biomarkers, even when all variables were integrated, our patients&rsquo; microbial gut ecosystems were rich and diverse, and the intestinal barrier&rsquo;s integrity was preserved. These results add new knowledge on the composition of microbiota and its correlation with barrier permeability and short-chain fatty acids and suggest that more studies are required before these potential biomarkers can be incorporated into the clinical management of patients via immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. <a href="/2072-6694/16/6/1144">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/16/6/1144/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1356509"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1356509"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1356509" data-cycle-prev="#prev1356509" data-cycle-progressive="#images1356509" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g001-550.jpg?1710927260" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1356509" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g002-550.jpg?1710927263'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g003a-550.jpg?1710927268'><p>Figure 3</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='3' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g003b-550.jpg?1710927271'><p>Figure 3 Cont.</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='4' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g004-550.jpg?1710927272'><p>Figure 4</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='5' data-target='article-1356509-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g005-550.jpg?1710927274'><p>Figure 5</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1356509-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-16-01144/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-16-01144-g001-550.jpg?1710927260" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Kaplan–Meier survival analysis according to the presence of immune-related toxicity: (&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt;) overall survival; (&lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;) progression-free tumor survival.

Methods: in this single-center prospective cohort study, we investigated changes in the gut microbiota and serum metabolite profile in 60 patients with NSCLC after four cycles of anticancer therapy. Results: The microbial landscape of the gut exhibited a surge in Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobiota populations, alongside a decline in Firmicutes, Actinobacteriota, and Bacteroidota. Furthermore, a significant shift in the prevalence of certain bacterial genera was noted, with an increase in Escherichia/Shigella and Klebsiella, contrasted by a reduction in Bifidobacterium. Metabolomic analysis uncovered significant changes in lipid abundances, with certain metabolic pathways markedly altered post-treatment. Correlation assessments identified strong links between certain gut microbial genera and serum metabolite concentrations. Despite these findings, a subgroup analysis delineating patient responses to therapy revealed no significant shifts in the gut microbiome&rsquo;s composition after four cycles of treatment. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the critical role of gut microbiota changes in NSCLC patients during anticancer treatment. These insights pave the way for managing treatment complications and inform future research to improve patient care by understanding and addressing these microbiota changes. <a href="/2077-0383/13/2/529">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/13/2/529/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1320937"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1320937"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1320937" data-cycle-prev="#prev1320937" data-cycle-progressive="#images1320937" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g001-550.jpg?1705489809" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1320937" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g002-550.jpg?1705489811'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g003-550.jpg?1705489813'><p>Figure 3</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='3' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g004-550.jpg?1705489814'><p>Figure 4</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='4' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g005-550.jpg?1705489815'><p>Figure 5</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='5' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g006-550.jpg?1705489817'><p>Figure 6</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='6' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g007-550.jpg?1705489818'><p>Figure 7</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='7' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g008-550.jpg?1705489820'><p>Figure 8</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='8' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g009-550.jpg?1705489822'><p>Figure 9</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='9' data-target='article-1320937-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g010-550.jpg?1705489824'><p>Figure 10</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1320937-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jcm/jcm-13-00529/article_deploy/html/images/jcm-13-00529-g001-550.jpg?1705489809" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;(&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt;) “Shannon Index and Biodiversity”: represents information entropy with higher values signifying increased community diversity.

In patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), increasing evidence suggests that a microbiome composition signature is associated with clinical response to ICIs as well as with the development of immune-related adverse events. In support of this, antibiotic (ATB)-related dysbiosis has been consistently linked with the deleterious impact of ICI response, shortening the overall survival (OS) among patients on ATBs prior to ICI initiation. In parallel, several preclinical experiments have unravelled various strategies using probiotics, prebiotics, diet, and fecal microbiota transplantation as new therapeutic tools to beneficially shift the microbiome and enhance ICI efficacy. These approaches are currently being evaluated in clinical trials and have achieved encouraging preliminary results.

The short-read sequencing of variable regions in the 16S rRNA gene has commonly been used to infer bacterial taxonomy, and this has led, in part, to inconsistent findings between studies. Here, we examined mucosal microbiota from patients who presented with one or more polyps, compared to patients with no polyps, at the time of colonoscopy. We evaluated the results obtained using both short-read and PacBio long-read 16S rRNA sequencing. Neither sequencing technology identified significant differences in microbial diversity measures between patients with or without bowel polyps. Differential abundance measures showed that amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) associated with <i>Ruminococcus gnavus</i> and <i>Escherichia coli</i> were elevated in mucosa from polyp patients, while ASVs associated with <i>Parabacteroides merdae</i>, <i>Veillonella nakazawae</i>, and <i>Sutterella wadsworthensis</i> were relatively decreased. Only <i>R. gnavus</i> was consistently identified using both sequencing technologies as being altered between patients with polyps compared to patients without polyps, suggesting differences in technologies and bioinformatics processing impact study findings. Several of the differentially abundant bacteria identified using either sequencing technology are associated with inflammatory bowel diseases despite these patients being excluded from the current study, which suggests that early bowel neoplasia may be associated with a local inflammatory niche. <a href="/2072-6694/15/20/5045">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/15/20/5045/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1262771"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1262771"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1262771" data-cycle-prev="#prev1262771" data-cycle-progressive="#images1262771" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g001-550.jpg?1697693944" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1262771" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g002-550.jpg?1697693946'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g003-550.jpg?1697693947'><p>Figure 3</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='3' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g004-550.jpg?1697693950'><p>Figure 4</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='4' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g005-550.jpg?1697693953'><p>Figure 5</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='5' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g006-550.jpg?1697693955'><p>Figure 6</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='6' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g007-550.jpg?1697693958'><p>Figure 7</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='7' data-target='article-1262771-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g008-550.jpg?1697693961'><p>Figure 8</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1262771-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-05045/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-05045-g001-550.jpg?1697693944" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Composition plots aggregated to the phylum level for (&lt;b&gt;A&lt;/b&gt;) SR and (&lt;b&gt;B&lt;/b&gt;) PB-LR data.

Work in murine models demonstrated that castalagin, the active compound in CC, preferentially binds to beneficial gut microbiome bacteria, promoting a stronger CD8+T cell anti-cancer response. We present two patients with metastatic melanoma whose cancer progressed on immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and developed clinically significant immune-related adverse events (irAEs). They were rechallenged with ICIs in combination with CC. The first patient is a 71-year-old woman with metastatic melanoma, whose ICI treatment was complicated by immune-related pneumonitis and colitis. Upon progression on maintenance nivolumab, CC was added to nivolumab, leading to a near complete response (CR). The second patient is a 90-year-old man with recurrent unresectable melanoma, treated with nivolumab, complicated by immune-related rash and diabetes. He developed new subcutaneous calf lesions and a metastatic popliteal lymph node. CC was added to nivolumab. One month later, the patient experienced a CR. Both patients have been on nivolumab and CC with durable responses for more than a year, with minimal irAEs. These two cases suggest that CC may modulate the microbiome, synergizing with ICIs to produce deep, durable responses with minimal irAEs. <a href="/1718-7729/30/9/570">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/1718-7729/30/9/570/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1225514"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1225514"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1225514" data-cycle-prev="#prev1225514" data-cycle-progressive="#images1225514" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1225514-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/curroncol/curroncol-30-00570/article_deploy/html/images/curroncol-30-00570-g001-550.jpg?1693206270" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1225514" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1225514-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/curroncol/curroncol-30-00570/article_deploy/html/images/curroncol-30-00570-g002-550.jpg?1693206274'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1225514-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/curroncol/curroncol-30-00570/article_deploy/html/images/curroncol-30-00570-g003-550.jpg?1693206275'><p>Figure 3</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1225514-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/curroncol/curroncol-30-00570/article_deploy/html/images/curroncol-30-00570-g001-550.jpg?1693206270" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Timeline of immunotherapy treatments, antibiotic use, and clinical evolution of patient 1.

Oesophagogastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer worldwide, with poor survival outcomes. The role of bacteria in the pathogenesis of oesophagogastric cancer remains poorly understood. Design. A systematic search identified studies assessing the oesophagogastric cancer microbiome. The primary outcome was to identify bacterial enrichment specific to oesophagogastric cancer. Secondary outcomes included appraisal of the methodology, diagnostic performance of cancer bacteria and the relationship between oral and tissue microbiome. Results. A total of 9295 articles were identified, and 87 studies were selected for analysis. Five genera were enriched in gastric cancer: <i>Lactobacillus</i>, <i>Streptococcus</i>, <i>Prevotella</i>, <i>Fusobacterium</i> and <i>Veillonella</i>. No clear trends were observed in oesophageal adenocarcinoma. <i>Streptococcus</i>, <i>Prevotella</i> and <i>Fusobacterium</i> were abundant in oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Functional analysis supports the role of immune cells, localised inflammation and cancer-specific pathways mediating carcinogenesis. STORMS reporting assessment identified experimental deficiencies, considering batch effects and sources of contamination prevalent in low-biomass samples. Conclusions. Functional analysis of cancer pathways can infer tumorigenesis within the cancer&ndash;microbe&ndash;immune axis. There is evidence that study design, experimental protocols and analytical techniques could be improved to achieve more accurate and representative results. Whole-genome sequencing is recommended to identify key metabolic and functional capabilities of candidate bacteria biomarkers. <a href="/2072-6694/15/10/2668">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/15/10/2668/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1142399"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1142399"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1142399" data-cycle-prev="#prev1142399" data-cycle-progressive="#images1142399" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1142399-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02668/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02668-g001-550.jpg?1683613572" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1142399" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1142399-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02668/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02668-g002-550.jpg?1683613579'><p>Figure 2</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1142399-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02668/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02668-g001-550.jpg?1683613572" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Flow chart demonstrating article selection.&lt;/p&gt; <strong style='display: block; margin-top: 10px; font-size: 18px;'><a style='color: #fff' href='/2072-6694/15/10/2668'>Full article</a></strong> "></a><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02668/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02668-g002-550.jpg?1683613579" title=" <strong>Figure 2</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Bacteria enriched in oesophagogastric carcinoma across all included 89 studies.

We hypothesized that the effectiveness of immunotherapy with pembrolizumab in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients is decreased by the administration of antibiotics three months before and after immunotherapy. Methods: We retrieved data from patients diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) (International Classification of Diseases [ICD]-10 codes C00-C14) and receiving immunotherapy with pembrolizumab from the TriNetX network. Two cohorts were built: patients in cohort I did not receive any antibiotics within three months before or up to three months after immunotherapy, while patients in cohort II were administered antibiotics at least once within three months before or after immunotherapy. To exclude confounders, we matched cohorts 1:1 for age, sex, secondary lymph node metastases, nicotine dependence, the insertion of feeding devices, body mass index (BMI) and severe sepsis. After defining the primary outcome as &ldquo;death&rdquo;, a Kaplan&ndash;Meier analysis was performed, and the risk ratio (RR), odds ratio (OR) and hazard ratio (HR) were calculated. Results: A total of 3651 patients were enrolled, and after matching, each cohort consisted of 1362 patients. Among cohorts I and II, 346 and 511 patients were deceased within one year (risk of death = 25.5 and 38.3%, respectively), whereby the risk difference was significant (<i>p</i> = 0.000; log-rank test). The RR was 0.68 (95% confidence interval: 0.60&ndash;0.76), OR was 0.57 (0.48&ndash;0.67) and HR was 0.58 (0.51&ndash;0.67). Conclusions: Our hypothesis was confirmed: administering antibiotics significantly decreases the drug effectiveness of immunotherapy. We hypothesize that this finding is associated with antibiotic-related changes in the gut microbiome. Prospective clinical studies on the gut microbiome in cancer patients are necessary to understand the complex ecosystem of microbiota during immunotherapy. Trial Registration: Due to the retrospective nature of the study, no registration was necessary. <a href="/2072-6694/15/8/2342">Full article</a> </div> </div> <div class="belongsTo" style="margin-bottom: 10px;"> (This article belongs to the Topic <a href="/topics/8AV677I39Q">Gut Microbiota and Cancer</a>)<br/> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6694/15/8/2342/show" ><span >&#9658;</span><span style=" display: none;">&#9660;</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1125887"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1125887"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1125887" data-cycle-prev="#prev1125887" data-cycle-progressive="#images1125887" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1125887-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02342/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02342-g001-550.jpg?1681788896" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Figure 1</p></div><script id="images1125887" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1125887-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02342/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02342-g002-550.jpg?1681788893'><p>Figure 2</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1125887-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/cancers/cancers-15-02342/article_deploy/html/images/cancers-15-02342-g001-550.jpg?1681788896" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> &lt;p&gt;Modified Consort flow diagram.

The primary aim of this study was to analyze the influence of selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) on the postoperative infection rate after pancreatic surgery. (2) Methods: From January 2019, the standard of care for patients undergoing pancreatic head resections at the Department for Visceral, Thoracic, and Vascular Surgery, University Hospital Dresden was the preoperative oral administration of SDD. The influence of SDD was evaluated for patients operated on between January 2019 and June 2020 in comparison to a propensity score-matched cohort, extracted from an existing database including all pancreatic resections from 2012 to 2018. The primary endpoint of the study was the shift of the bacterial load on the intraoperative bile swab test. The secondary endpoint was the association of SDD with postoperative complications. (3) Results: In total, 200 patients either with SDD (<i>n</i> = 100; 50%) or without SDD (non-SDD, <i>n</i> = 100; 50%) were analyzed. In the patient group without a preoperative biliary stent, 44% (<i>n</i> = 11) of the non-SDD group displayed positive bacterial results, whereas that was the case for only 21.7% (<i>n</i> = 10) in the SDD group (<i>p</i> = 0.05). Particularly, Enterobacter species (spp.) were reduced from 41.2% (<i>n</i> = 14) (non-SDD group) to 23.5% (<i>n</i> = 12) (SDD group) (<i>p</i> = 0.08), and Citrobacter spp. were reduced by 13.7% (<i>p</i> = 0.09) from the non-SDD to the SDD cohort. In patients with a preoperative biliary stent, the Gram-negative Enterobacter spp. were significantly reduced from 52.2% (<i>n</i> = 12) in the non-SDD group to 26.8% (<i>n</i> = 11) in the SDD group (<i>p</i> = 0.04). Similarly, Citrobacter spp. decreased by 20.6% from 30.4% (<i>n</i> = 7) to 9.8% (<i>n</i> = 4) in the non-SDD compared to the SDD group (<i>p</i> = 0.04). In general, deep fluid collection and abscesses occurred more frequently in the non-SDD group (36%; <i>n</i> = 36 vs. 27%; <i>n</i> = 27; <i>p</i> = 0.17). (4) Conclusions: Adoption of SDD before pancreatic head surgery may reduce the bacterial load in bile fluid.
