Evolving Concepts: How Diet and the Intestinal Microbiome Act as Modulators of Breast Malignancy
The intestinal microbiome plays an important role in human physiology. Next-generation sequencing technologies, knockout and gnotobiotic mouse models, fecal transplant data and epidemiologic studies have accelerated our understanding of microbiome abnormalities seen in immune diseases and malignancies. Dysbiosis is the disturbed microbiome ecology secondary to external pressures such as host di...
متن کاملHuman Microbiome
Humans are almost identical in their genetic pattern, but the slight differences in our DNA lead to remarkable phenotypic variation among the human population. There are a variety of microbial communities and their genes (microbiomes) in the human body that play an essential role in human health and disease. The microbes inhabiting our bodies is quite a bit more variable, with only a third of i...
متن کاملUrinary Melatonin Levels and Skin Malignancy
Melatonin inhibits tumor genesis in a variety of in vivo and in vitro experimental models of neoplasia. In industrialized societies, light at night, by suppressing melatonin production, poses a new risk for the development of a variety of cancers such as breast cancer. This effect on skin has been previously studied only in animals and not in humans. Our goal was to examine the relationship bet...
متن کاملMicrobiome
The Nobel Laureate, Dr. Joshua Lederberg, used the term "microbiome" to describe an ecological system of commensal, symbiotic, and perhaps pathogenic microorganisms that reside in the human body [1]. Interestingly, the microbiome is not exclusive to humans, as it has also been found and studied in other animals and even in plants. Today, the term microbiome typically refers to a collection of g...
متن کاملMicrobiome Helper: a Custom and Streamlined Workflow for Microbiome Research
Sequence-based approaches to study microbiomes, such as 16S rRNA gene sequencing and metagenomics, are uncovering associations between microbial taxa and a myriad of factors. A drawback of these approaches is that the necessary sequencing library preparation and bioinformatic analyses are complicated and continuously changing, which can be a barrier for researchers new to the field. We present ...
