Are There Challenges in Microbiome Research Related to Cancer?
Despite the promising link between the microbiome and cancer, several challenges exist in this field of research. The complexity and variability of the microbiome among individuals make it difficult to identify specific microbial signatures associated with cancer. Additionally, establishing causality between microbiome changes and cancer development remains challenging. Further research is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms and to develop standardized methods for manipulating the microbiome in clinical settings.
