Microbiota enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis-secreted BFT-1 promotes breast cancer cell stemness and chemoresistance through its functional receptor NOD1

Tumor-resident microbiota in breast cancer promotes both the initiation and progression of cancer. However, the potential of targeting microbiota to enhance the efficacy of breast cancer treatment has not been comprehensively explored. In this study, researchers analyzed the microbial composition within breast tumors and identified a notable enrichment of ETBF in

Discovering cancers of epigenetic origin without DNA mutation

A research team including scientists from the CNRS1 has discovered that cancer, one of the leading causes of death worldwide, can be caused entirely by epigenetic changes2, in other words, changes that contribute to how gene expression is regulated, and partly explain why, despite an

Mini-colons revolutionize colorectal cancer research

As our battle against cancer rages on, the quest for more sophisticated and realistic models to study tumor development has never been more critical. Until now, research has relied on animal models and simplified cell culture methods, which are valuable but cannot fully capture the
