Abstract:
Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors with poor prognosis in China, and most patients are diagnosed as advanced patients. Studies have shown that the microecological characteristics of lung cancer patients are different from healthy people, and the microorganisms of the respiratory tract can affect the occurrence and development of lung cancer through various mechanisms. In recent years, the study of the correlation between microbiome and disease has become another research hotspot following the Human Genome Project. However, at present, there are relatively few studies on the characteristics of lung cancer and respiratory microbiome. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the potential relationship between lung cancer and microbial flora. By studying the mechanism of action of respiratory microorganisms in the development of lung cancer, it is expected to provide a clearer scientific basis in the clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis assessment of lung cancer. This article reviews the current researches on microbial flora and lung cancer, and provides new ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer.
