ABSTRACT

Breast cancer is the most common cancer of women and is the leading cause of death-related deaths in global female cancer. The flora is undoubtedly the second genome of the human body, playing the role of a "symbiotic creature." The breast and the intestine flora bond between cancer cells and their local environment. The flora affects breast cancer by regulating hormone metabolism, chronic inflammation, and immune system reaction. Other studies have found that diet, obesity, antibiotics, and probiotics can play an essential anti-cancer effect in breast cancer. Therefore, this article summarizes the latest research progress on the pathogenesis of breast and intestinal flora in breast cancer pathogenesis. The breast and intestinal flora are expected to become a hub for further diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.
