Article Synopsis
- The human gut microbiota is made up of trillions of microbes that adapt to the diverse environment of the intestine and play a crucial role in nutrient exchange and immune function.
- These microbes and the human host work together as a unit to protect against pathogens and maintain balance, but disruptions in this balance, known as dysbiosis, can lead to disease.
- Understanding the dynamics between the microbiota and the host may influence future antibiotic treatments and lead to alternative approaches like fecal transplants for maintaining gut health.
Laryngeal cancer is the most frequent neoplasm in the head and neck region, with the vast majority of tumors originating from squamous cells. The survival rate of patients with laryngeal cancer has not improved substantially over the past 25 years. To acquire further knowledge regarding the molecules responsible for laryngeal cancer oncogenesis and, in turn, to improve target therapy iTRAQ and mass spectrometry analysis were utilized to detect differences in protein expression from 15 paired laryngeal cancer and adjacent non-cancerous tissue samples.
