Harnessing the Microbiome to Enhance Cancer Immunotherapy
The microbiota plays a key role in regulating the innate and adaptive immune system. Herein, we review the immunological aspects of the microbiota in tumor immunity in mice and man, with a focus on toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists, vaccines, checkpoint modulators, chemotherapy, and adoptive T cell transfer (ACT) therapies. We propose innovative treatments that may safely harness the microbiota...
متن کاملHarnessing the power of the human microbiome.
S ince the earliest days of microbiology, it has been clear that all humans carry many of the same microbial lineages. We now call the collection of microbes living in or on our bodies the human microbiome (1), and a large international effort, called the Human Microbiome Project (HMP) by the National Institutes of Health (2), and known more broadly as the International Human Microbiome Consort...
متن کاملHarnessing the Microbiome to Prevent Fungal Infections: Lessons from Amphibians
All multicellular organisms are host to microbial symbionts that constitute the microbiome and can have significant impacts on the host, including altering development, behavior, and health [1]. In turn, aspects of the host and their environment can influence the microbiome [2]. Here, we briefly summarize current knowledge of the amphibian skin microbiome and its role in heath and disease. Give...
