Aspergillus fumigatus promotes tumor angiogenesis via SLC7A11 on myeloid-derived suppressor cells.
Article in EMBO reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The microbiome is increasingly recognized as playing a critical role in lung cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. While bacteria are essential for tumor angiogenesis, the impact of fungi on this process remains largely unexplored. In this study, we investigate effects of Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) on lung cancer. We show that inhalation of A. fumigatus increases tumor burden and angiogenesis in mouse models. Interestingly, A. fumigatus does not directly affect the proangiogenic abilities of tumor cells or endothelial cells. Instead, A. fumigatus promotes the accumulation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), particularly G-MDSCs, in tumor tissues. A. fumigatus increases VEGF-A secretion from tumor-associated MDSCs, promoting tumor angiogenesis. Furthermore, we identify solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) as a key player in regulating this proangiogenic function through an interaction with High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1) in MDSCs. Our results shed light on the mechanisms by which A. fumigatus influences MDSCs to promote angiogenesis and demonstrate that commensal fungi influence host immunity and support tumor progression.
