Aggressive cancer cells can form new, functional blood vessel-like structures independently of endothelial cells, known as vasculogenic mimicry (VM), instead of the usual tumor blood vessel formation process. However, the symbiotic relationship between microbial communities and human cells ensures the upkeep of cellular metabolism and the functionality of the immune system and metastatic cancers. This interaction typically happens through the generation and management of hormonal intermediates, metabolites, secondary metabolites, proteins, and toxins. A disturbance in the balance between the host and microbiota can alter the dynamics of their relationship, creating a conducive environment for the development of diseases, such as cancers. This review aims to synthesize the initial evidence on the molecular processes governing the interactions between GM and cancer development and emphasize microbial metabolites' effects on vasculogenic mimicry. Some microbial metabolites could also contribute to developing interactions between microbes and the tumor microenvironment. While numerous obstacles persist, GM's immense significance and complete capability in shaping tailored anticancer plans cannot be exaggerated, highlighting the need to investigate a holistic method that includes microbial modulation therapy in cancer management.
侵袭性癌细胞可以独立于内皮细胞形成新的、功能性的血管样结构,即所谓的血管生成拟态(VM),而不是通常的肿瘤血管形成过程。然而,微生物群落与人类细胞之间的共生关系确保了细胞代谢的维持以及免疫系统和转移性癌症的功能。这种相互作用通常通过激素中间体、代谢物、次生代谢物、蛋白质和毒素的产生和管理来实现。宿主与微生物群之间平衡的紊乱会改变它们之间关系的动态,为癌症等疾病的发展创造有利环境。本综述旨在综合关于调节肠道微生物群(GM)与癌症发展之间相互作用的分子过程的初步证据,并强调微生物代谢物对血管生成拟态的影响。一些微生物代谢物也可能有助于微生物与肿瘤微环境之间相互作用的发展。虽然仍然存在许多障碍,但肠道微生物群在制定个性化抗癌计划方面的巨大意义和全部能力再怎么强调也不为过,这突出了研究一种包括微生物调节疗法在内的整体方法用于癌症管理的必要性。
