The host microbiome is polymorphic, compartmentalized, and composed of distinctive tissue microbiomes. While research in the field cancer immunotherapy has provided an improved understanding interaction with gastrointestinal microbiome, significance tumor-associated only recently been grasped. This article provides a state-of-the-art review about sheds light on how local tumor microbiota shapes anticancer immunity influences checkpoint outcome. direct route between cells, immune microenvironment emphasized advocates focus addition to spatially separated gut compartment. Since mechanisms underlying modulation by remain largely elusive, future should dissect pathways involved outline strategies therapeutically modulate microbes their products within microenvironment.

The gut microbiota have long been recognized to play a key role in human health and disease. Currently, several lines of evidence from preclinical clinical research gradually established that the can modulate antitumor immunity affect efficacy cancer immunotherapies, especially immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Deciphering underlying mechanisms reveals reprogram tumor microenvironment (TME) by engaging innate and/or adaptive cells.

Millions of years co-evolution between animals and their associated microbial communities have shaped diversified the nature relationship. Studies continue to reveal new layers complexity in host–microbe interactions, fate which depends on a variety different factors, ranging from neutral processes environmental factors local dynamics. Research is increasingly integrating ecosystem-based approaches, metagenomics mathematical modelling disentangle individual contribution ecological microbiome evolution. Within this framework, host are known be among dominant drivers composition animal species. However, extent they shape assembly evolution remains unclear. In review, we summarize our understanding how drive these dynamics conserved vary across taxa. We conclude by outlining key avenues for research highlight need implementation modifications existing theory fully capture host-associated microbiomes.

Various aspects of sociality can benefit individuals' health. The host social environment and its relative contributions to the host-microbiome relationship have emerged as key topics in microbial research. Yet, understanding mechanisms that lead structural variation microbiome, collective metacommunity an animal's network, remains difficult since multiple processes operate simultaneously within among animal networks. Here, we examined potential drivers convergence gut microbiome on scales seven neighbouring groups wild Verreaux's sifakas (Propithecus verreauxi) - a folivorous primate Madagascar. Over four field seasons, collected 519 faecal samples 41 animals determined communities via 16S 18S rRNA gene amplicon analyses. First, whether group members share more similar microbiota if diet, home range overlap, or habitat similarity drive between-group communities, accounting for seasonality. Next, within-group by examining effects contact rates, male rank, maternal relatedness. To explore intrinsic community structure, investigated age, sex, glucocorticoid metabolites, female reproductive state. We found differ alpha diversity, while none environmental predictors explained patterns variation. Maternal relatedness played important role homogeneity may also explain why adult shared least microbiota. Also, dominant males differed their bacterial composition from mates, which might be driven rank-related differences physiology scent-marking behaviours. Links state, metabolites were not detected. Environmental factors define general set-up population-specific microbiota, but stronger impact this species. Video abstract.

Host specificity is observed in gut symbionts of diverse animal lineages. But how hosts maintain while rejecting their close relatives remains elusive. We use eusocial bees and codiversified bacteria to understand host regulation driving symbiotic specificity. The cross-inoculation bumblebee Gilliamella induced higher prostaglandin the honeybee gut, promoting a pronounced response through immune deficiency (IMD) Toll pathways. Gene silencing vitamin C treatments indicate that reactive oxygen species (ROS), not antimicrobial peptides, acts as effector inhibiting non-native strain. Quantitative PCR RNAi further reveal regulatory function IMD pathways, which Relish dorsal-1 may regulate Dual Oxidase ( Duox ) for ROS production. Therefore, maintains by creating hostile environment exotic bacteria, differential its system, reflecting co-opting existing machinery evolved combat pathogens.
