Microbial Breast tumor tissue and Qualitative survey of breast Bacterium Methylobacterium radiotolerans [133]
Dysbiosis paired normal adjacent microbiota DNA is relatively enriched in tumor tissue, while
tissue from the same patient the bacterium Sphingomonas yanoikuyae
is relatively enriched in paired normal
tissue. The relative abundances of these
two bacterial species were inversely
correlated in paired normal breast tissue
but not in tumor tissue, indicating that
dysbiosis is associated with breast cancer
48 postmenopausal breast Microbiota profiles in fecal DNA Estrogens correlated with α-diversity in [134]
cancer case patients, were determined by Illumina control patients (Spearman Rho = 0.37, P
