Evidence context

How this source is used

Evidence roles describe what this source helps establish inside each Investigation. They are local to that use, not permanent labels attached to the publication itself.

Investigation

Is cancer fundamentally a fungus that antifungal treatment can cure?

Qualifies

A 2019 Nature study associated fungi with pancreatic cancer and manipulated fungal colonization in mouse pancreatic tumor models, including a Malassezia-dependent progression effect. This tests a possible cancer-promoting cofactor, not fungal identity of malignant human cells or a human antifungal cancer cure.
