Popis: Abstract Background It has been demonstrated in the literature that a dysbiotic microbiome could have a negative impact on the host immune system and promote disease onset or exacerbation. Co-occurrence networks have been widely adopted to identify biomarkers and keystone taxa in the pathogenesis of microbiome-related diseases. Despite the promising results that network-driven approaches have led to in various human diseases, there is a dearth of research pertaining to key taxa that contribute to the pathogenesis of lung cancer. Therefore, our primary goal in this study is to explore co-existing relationships among members of the lung microbial community and any potential gained or lost interactions in lung cancer. Results Using integrative and network-based approaches, we integrated four studies assessing the microbiome of lung biopsies of cancer patients. Differential abundance analyses showed that several bacterial taxa are different between tumor and tumor-adjacent normal tissues (FDR adjusted p-value
