A New Paradigm in the Relationship between Melatonin and Breast Cancer: Gut Microbiota Identified as a Potential Regulatory Agent
The relationship between melatonin and breast cancer has been widely described. On the other hand, in recent years, an imbalance in the composition of the intestinal bacterial population has been linked as another possible trigger for this disease. Given that changes in the gut microbiota have been observed to stimulate the kinurenine pathway, reducing circulating melatonin levels, in this review, we summarize the relationship between circadian disruption and breast cancer, as well as the connection with dysbiosis as possible causing this pathology due to a series of changes that lead to an increase in circulating estrogen levels.
