Breast microbiota and breast cancer： present and future

doi:10.3760/cma.j.cn371439-20230627-00007

Abstract

Abstract:

In recent years, studies have found that breast microbiota differs between breast cancer tissue and normal breast tissue. Breast microbiota is closely related to the occurrence and development of breast cancer, and its mechanism includes affecting estrogen levels, lipid metabolism, immune regulation, and inflammatory response. Adjusting diet, rational use of antibiotics and oral probiotics can regulate breast microbiota, which is a new direction for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer.

Key words: Breast neoplasms, Microbiota, Tumor microenvironment, Estrogens
