Cancer Med
A mouse study found that exposure to bacterial toxins (lipopolysaccharides or LPS) during puberty—a critical period for breast development—caused lasting inflammation and changes in gene expression that increased breast cancer risk later in life. Researchers discovered that a prebiotic supplement derived from shiitake mushrooms (AHCC) could counteract these harmful effects by reducing inflammation, regulating immune signaling molecules, and blocking cancer-promoting gene activity in mammary tissue. The findings suggest that gut health and inflammation during puberty may influence long-term breast cancer risk, and that dietary interventions like prebiotics might offer a preventive strategy, though human studies are needed to confirm these results.
