Description
Adam Burke, Adekunle Sanyaolu, and Amitabha Ray review how bacteria touch cancer, with a focus on a childhood kidney tumor, in this 2025 note. Bacteria can spark cancer, set the stage for it, infect patients during care, or supply parts for targeted drugs.
In children, gene faults drive most tumors, yet infections during care still drive much sickness and death. Drug designers pair a homing antibody with a bacterial toxin to strike cancer cells. The tumor in focus is Wilms tumor, the most common kidney cancer of childhood. Its key protein also shows up in many adult cancers. The note surveys the tumor's traits and its infection risks.
