Abstract in brief

  • The gut microbiome is a complex ecosystem that interacts with both the human host and drugs, influencing how drugs work and how the microbiome is affected.
  • Drugs can alter the composition of the gut microbiome, and in turn, the microbiome can modify drug structures, affecting their effectiveness, safety, and toxicity through processes like enzymatic transformation.
  • These interactions are especially important in treatments like cancer immunotherapy, where the microbiome can impact the patient's response, highlighting the potential for microbiome-based strategies to improve medical outcomes.]

A new review again highlighting the importance of the #microbiome for #drugResponse - https://t.co/ZvdWnpSZBf - including a mention of the 176 out of 271 drugs metabolized by gut bacterial strains (from Zimmermann et al 2019). Numbers that are hard to ignore!
