Molecular techniques for identifying pathogens associated with cancer continue to be developed, including one reported recently in BMC Medical Genomics. Identifying a causal infectious agent helps in understanding the biology of these cancers and can lead ultimately to the development of antimicrobial drugs and vaccines for their treatment and prevention.
用于识别与癌症相关病原体的分子技术仍在不断发展，其中包括最近发表在《BMC医学基因组学》上的一项研究。识别出致病感染因子有助于理解这些癌症的生物学特性，并最终可能促成用于其治疗和预防的抗菌药物及疫苗的研发。
