Article Synopsis
- - This study examines the possible link between skin microbiomes and prostate cancer (PCa) using a method called bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) alongside meta-analysis to enhance its findings.
- - Researchers analyzed genetic data to investigate the relationship between 150 skin microbiomes and PCa, and found that Neisseria present in dry skin is correlated with an increased risk of developing PCa.
- - The study concluded that Neisseria in dry skin acts as a risk factor for prostate cancer, while other skin microbiomes studied showed no significant association with the disease.
