Association of Chlamydia and Mycoplasma infections with susceptibility to ovarian cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
2022, Seminars in Cancer BiologyCitation Excerpt :Chlamydia and Mycoplasma infections are among the most common STDs in developed countries and are usually asymptomatic and misidentified [41]. These infectious agents cause salpingitis, psammoma bodies, endometritis, PID, and infertility [18]. Recent studies have shown that the rate of ovarian malignancy is higher in patients with these microorganisms [19,20].
Microbes in gynecologic cancers: Causes or consequences and therapeutic potential
2022, Seminars in Cancer BiologyCitation Excerpt :Almost 75 % of the ovarian tumor patients are detected to have diverse microorganisms like Brucella, Chlamydia and Mycoplasma etc. The presence of these microorganisms in the fallopian tubes suggest an association with ovarian carcinogenesis [12,13]. Thus, the association between microbiome dysbiosis and gynecologic cancers is becoming increasing clear, which can mediate physiologic changes and influence the initiation, growth and possibly the outcome of gynecologic cancers [14].
Microbial dysbiosis and epigenetics modulation in cancer development – A chemopreventive approach
2022, Seminars in Cancer BiologyCitation Excerpt :Most of the ovarian cancer tissues have shown Chlamydia, which is not found in controls [165]. Chlamydia has contributed towards cancer by inhibiting apoptosis and increasing vulnerability to infection and in 59 % of cases of ovarian cancer in which Mycoplasma was found [166]. However, many bacteria found in ovarian cancer have been associated with other cancers too [166].
