How Do Microbiological Cultures Contribute to Cancer Therapy Development?
Microbiological cultures are instrumental in developing new cancer therapies. By studying how microorganisms interact with cancer cells, researchers can identify potential therapeutic targets and develop treatments that exploit these interactions. For example, oncolytic viruses are engineered to selectively infect and kill cancer cells. Additionally, probiotics and prebiotics are being explored to modulate the microbiome and enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies.
