Distinct Microbial Signatures Associated with Bladder and Kidney Cancers Raw sequence reads

Urological cancers are among the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Human microbiota has been shown to affect both health and disease conditions in the body. Studies of microbial dysbiosis at various body sites suggest its potential role in promoting numerous disease progressions. Growing evidence indicates that the microbiota is strongly associated with human cancers. This study was performed to characterize the distinctive intra-tumor microbiota associated with bladder and kidney cancers.
