Microbiome metabolism of dietary phytochemicals controls the anticancer activity of PI3K inhibitors
Diet can impact anticancer drug activity. A classic example in rodents is a ketogenic diet enhancing PI3K inhibitor activity. Here, we show that phytochemicals and their microbiome derivatives, rather than macronutrient composition, underlie this phenomenon.

Thrilled to share that my main postdoctoral project in Josh Rabinowitz’s lab is out today at @cp-cell.bsky.social ! We found an unexpected, diet- and microbiota-dependent mechanism that affects the anticancer activity of PI3K inhibitors. Thread below 👇

Lack of consistent effect of dietary fiber on immune checkpoint blockade efficacy across diverse murine tumor models
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has transformed cancer treatment, but success rates remain low in most cancers. Recent research suggest that dietary fiber enhances ICB response in melanoma patients a...
