Shvets, Yu. V.     Human microbiota and effectiveness of cancer chemotherapy / Yu. V. Shvets, N. Yu. Lukianova, V. F. Chekhun // Experimental Oncology. - 2020. - Том 42, N 2. - P82-93 MeSH-main: НОВООБРАЗОВАНИЯ -- NEOPLASMS (лекарственная терапия, микробиология) Annotation: This review presents up-to-date information on the effects of microbiota on the individual chemotherapy sensitivity in cancer treatment. Recent studies have shown that a fine balance between the intestinal microbiota and the immune system is crucial for maintaining an efficacy of cancer chemotherapy. A number of antitumor drugs have complex mechanisms of action involving not only direct effects but also the activity of the intestinal microbiota and the immune system. A unique combination of these factors contributes to the individual chemotherapy sensitivity Additional Access Points: Lukianova, N. Yu. Chekhun, V. F. There are no free copies
