Gut mucus layer degradation is associated with aggressive cervical cancer phenotype
2021-12-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Gut microbiome community composition differs between cervical cancer (CC) patients and healthy controls, and increased gut diversity is associated with improved outcomes after treatment. We proposed that functions of specific microbial species adjoining the mucus layer may directly impact the biology of CC. Results In this study, we examined metagenomes of rectal swabs in 41 CC patients usin...
