NewsHow bacteria may promote breast cancer
Researchers have discovered how certain pathogenic bacteria in gut and breast tissue can promote breast cancer development and progression by hijacking a key metabolic enzyme known as spermine oxidase (SMOX).

NewsOral bacterium may promote breast cancer development and spread
Researchers found that Fusobacterium nucleatum, an oral bacterium commonly associated with periodontal disease, can promote breast cancer initiation, tumor growth and spread by inducing DNA damage and altering cancer cell behavior.
