In the lab we saw that supernatant of B.fragilis released more LDH in #BreastCancer cells in a dose-dependent manner which didn't translate to cell death. 🤨.

Oral #Streptococcus was high at baseline samples in clinical benefit patients. #lefse showed that #Bacteroidesfragilis was associated in the gut microbiota of clinical benefit patients.

We found that pembrolizumab and eribulin did not confer either gut or oral microbiota toxicity. Functional potential of the gut microbiota was similar between patients that responded and those who didn't.

Patients of the #KELLY study donated faecal and saliva samples. These metastatic breast cancer patients received anti-PD-1 treatment and a chemotherapeutic. #CALADRIO study profiled the gut and oral microbiota of these patients.

Paper from my #PhD is out! We profiled the gut and oral #microbiome of metastatic #breastcancer patients. This project was a long one in collaboration with @wearemedsir. Thanks @TheQuadram @bigctweets for supporting my studentship. It's published 🎉.

(8/9) The highest ANI was to Coprobacter secundus, 77.81%. Phenotypically it was similar to its siblings however it could not tolerate ox gall unlike its siblings. Being the third species of the genus Coprobacter we named it Coprobacter tertius.

(7/9) Meanwhile, we obtained a genome of 25 contigs for LH1063. This was suggested to be a novel species belonging to the genus Coprobacter.

(6/9) We decided to name the genus: Allocoprobacillus, as it fit the characteristics of Coprobacillus the most and as it could tolerate a relative high amount of salt named the species halotolerans.

(5/9) Phenotypically LH1062 is Gram +ve. It can surprisingly tolerate in 1-20% salt concentrations. LH1062 can acidify carbohydrates similar to C. cateniformis.
