Check out this exciting thread featuring a new preprint from @RobinsonLab_QIB π Thrilled to share our collaborative study on #Bifido and #BreastCancer, now preprinted! We explore the "sweet spot" of EPS-driven #anticancer immune mechanisms. #GutHealth #CancerResearch
𧡠Exciting new preprint! π¨ Weβve uncovered how Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum capsular exopolysaccharides (EPS) can enhance systemic anti-tumour immunity in pre-clinical breast cancer models. Here's what we found π #cancerresearch #microbiome
SO pleased to see this study now published @MolMetab - led by the fantastic @JLopTello! Jorge is currently setting up his own lab @UAM_Medicina so definitely keep an πout for further exciting work in this area and research opportunities!
Our study on maternal gut Bifidobacterium and its impact on fetal brain metabolism is out today in @MolMetab. Another fantastic collaboration with @PerriLab and @hall_lab. Here's a summary of our work over the past few years! #microbiota @CTR_Cambridge sciencedirect.com/science/articlβ¦
