Benjamin Carr, Ph.D. 👨🏻💻🧬#GumDisease bacteria can promote #cancer growth in mice
Human #breastcancer cells with a #BRCA1 mutation could be more susceptible to damage, lab experiments suggest
The work suggests that harmful bacteria in the mouth may enter the bloodstream, make a beeline for breast tissue and then whomp healthy cells like a wrecking ball. Previous studies have turned up correlations between oral disease and breast cancer, but “now we have a direct connection”
