英文摘要
ABSTRACT We hypothesize that oral fungi potentiate pancreas carcinogenesis via the pancreas tumor immune microenvironment. The human oral cavity hosts a diverse microbiota, including bacteria and fungi. Our team has made novel findings that human oral bacterial microbiome is related to risk of pancreas cancer development. In this proposal, we focus on oral fungi (the mycobiome), a “keystone” component of the oral microbiome with the highest biomass. Clinical candidiasis and carriage of a rare candidiasis-related genetic disorder increase risk for pancreas cancer. In our preliminary data, we made novel finding that specific oral fungi are associated with at least 2-fold differentials in pancreatic cancer risk, and those fungi are found in pancreas tumor tissue. We recently reported that fungi experimentally promote pancreas cancer and tumoral immune response in animals. Taken together, these data strongly support our hypothesis. Our ultimate goal is to identify specific oral fungal microbiota in the general population that may be managed to prevent pancreatic cancer. Our specific aims are: 1) to test whether oral fungal microbiome is associated with subsequent risk of pancreatic cancer in a nested case-control study and 2) to test the hypothesis that metabolically active fungi in the pancreas influence tumor immunity. Strengths of this study include a large prospective study design, with oral samples collected prior to cancer development, and state-of-the-art fungal and immune phenotype assays that will accurately and comprehensively characterize fungal composition and immune phenotypes. This is the first investigation of oral and pancreas fungal microbiome and pancreatic cancer risk. Pancreatic cancer is highly lethal and little is known about ways to detect and prevent this disease. We expect to identify specific oral fungi associated with risk of pancreas cancer and to identify fungal—host pancreatic tumor immune response. These outcomes will expand our current limited knowledge on the causes of pancreatic cancer, will help to identify people at high risk for this disease, and may lead to microbial-based prophylactic prevention for pancreatic cancer. Thus, findings may help to rapidly advance our ability to reduce the burden of this highly fatal disease.
