Nice thread showing highlights of our study:.
Why is exercise anti-cancer?. Mice that exercise suppress tumors better than those that don't. If those mice are treated with antibiotics, the gut microbiome is depleted and the effect is pretty much gone: it's (at least partly) mediated by gut bacteria . 🧵
