Pulmonary colonization of Candida albicans drives breast cancer lung metastasis via candidalysin
The intratumoral mycobiome is emerging as a key modulator of cancer progression, with specific fungal taxa as potential biomarkers. However, whether and how mycobiomes colonizing distant organs contribute to tumor evolution remains largely unexplored. Here, we identify selective enrichment of Candida albicans in breast cancer lung metastases. Mechanistically, the fungal virulence factor…
