New Visualization: The Tumor Microbiome Landscape

New Visualization: The Tumor Microbiome Landscape I am sharing a heatmap-style visualization titled "The Tumor Microbiome Landscape: Genus-Level Bacterial Enrichment Across Human Cancers," with the subtitle "Log2 fold-change in relative abundance of intratumoral bacterial genera versus matched adjacent normal tissue across seven tumor types." Important caveat: the data depicted here are simulated. The figure is intended to illustrate a literature-grounded trend synthesized from published intratumoral microbiome studies rather than to represent any single empirical dataset. It should be interpreted as a conceptual composite for discussion and teaching purposes. The matrix arranges bacterial genera along one axis and seven tumor types (colorectal, breast, lung, pancreatic, gastric, oral, and hepatocellular) along the other, with cells colored by log2 fold-change relative to matched adjacent normal tissue. The visualization reproduces several recurrently reported patterns: marked enrichment of Fusobacterium in colorectal and oral carcinomas, consistent with FadA- and Fap2-mediated epithelial adhesion and immunomodulation; enrichment of Enterobacteriaceae-associated genera in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, relevant to gemcitabine metabolism via bacterial cytidine deaminase; and comparatively low-biomass, heterogeneous signatures in breast tissue. Divergent color scaling distinguishes enrichment from depletion, and hierarchical clustering groups tumor types with concordant taxonomic profiles. My intent is to foreground tissue-specific niche selection and the mechanistic plausibility of these associations, while emphasizing that contamination controls, low-biomass artifacts, and batch effects remain critical confounders in this field. I welcome discussion on appropriate normalization strategies, the utility of log2 fold-change versus compositional approaches such as CLR transformation, and how best to represent uncertainty in low-biomass compartments.
