Abstract
Li et al. show that the gut microbiota effect on anti-tumor immunity is affected by inulin or mucin, prebiotics that inhibit melanoma and colon cancer growth in syngeneic models and attenuate melanoma resistance to MEKi. These studies highlight a potential therapeutic role for prebiotics in shaping the microbiota composition to promote anti-tumor immunity.
