Engineering bacteria to kill cancer cells… Sounds like science fiction, right? Well, it’s actually all science, no fiction! Sreyan Chowdhury and colleagues from Tal Danino’s lab at Columbia University describe this novel therapeutic approach in their recent Nature Medicine publication, “Programmable bacteria induce durable tumor regression and systemic antitumor immunity”. Paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6688650/ Review: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6558487/ Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnpIIZrjMtM&t=18s Please take a few minutes to write us a review on iTunes -- it will help us spread science!

In 1884, an unlucky patient who had a rapidly growing cancer in his neck came down with an unrelated bacterial skin infection. As he recovered from the infection, the cancer surprisingly began to recede. The infection had stimulated the patient's immune system. Today, synthetic biologists program bacteria to safely deliver drugs directly to tumors. How is this possible? Tal Danino investigates. [Directed by Chris Bishop, narrated by Addison Anderson].
Liver cancer is one of the most difficult cancers to detect, but synthetic biologist Tal Danino had a left-field thought: What if we could create a probiotic, edible bacteria that was "programmed" to find liver tumors? His insight exploits something we're just beginning to understand about bacteria: their power of quorum sensing, or doing something together once they reach critical mass. Danino, a TED Fellow, explains how quorum sensing works -- and how clever bacteria working together could someday change cancer treatment.
O câncer do fígado é um dos mais difíceis de detectar, mas o biólogo sintético, Tal Danino, teve um pensamento pouco convencional: e se pudéssemos criar um probiótico, uma bactéria comestível "programada" para encontrar tumores no fígado? A sua visão explora algo que apenas agora começamos a entender sobre as bactérias: o seu poder de percepção de quorum, ou de fazer algo em massa assim que atingem a densidade crítica. Danino, um Bolsista TED, explica como funciona a percepção de quorum – e como bactérias inteligentes trabalhando em conjunto podem, um dia, mudar o tratamento do câncer.
Le cancer hépatique est l'un des cancers les plus difficiles à détecter, mais Tal Danino, chercheur en biologie synthétique, a eu une idée de génie en se demandant: Et si on pouvait créer une bactérie probiotique comestible programmée à trouver des tumeurs du foie ? Son idée visionnaire se base sur un concept que l'on commence seulement à appréhender : le mécanisme de la détection du quorum effectué par les bactéries, à savoir leur capacité à effectuer quelque chose ensemble dès qu'elles atteignent une masse critique. Dans son exposé pour TED, Danino explique comment fonctionne la détection du quorum et comment des bactéries intelligentes et œuvrant de concert pourraient un jour révolutionner le traitement du cancer.
El cáncer de hígado es uno de los más difíciles de detectar, pero al biólogo sintético Tal Danino tiene una propuesta creativa: ¿y si pudiéramos crear una bacteria probiótica comestible y programable que detecte tumores en el hígado? Su visión explora algo que apenas empezamos a entender sobre las bacterias: su poder de autoinducción, o actuar juntas una vez que alcanzan una masa crítica. Danino, un Becario TED, explica cómo funciona la percepción de quórum y cómo las bacterias inteligentes que trabajan juntas cambiarán algún día el tratamiento del cáncer.
Leberkrebs ist schwer zu diagnostizieren, doch Tal Danino, synthetischer Biologe, hatte eine geniale Idee: Was wäre, wenn wir probiotische, essbare Bakterien "programmieren" könnten, so dass sie Leberkrebs erkennen? Seine Idee basiert auf neuen, bislang nur wenig untersuchten Erkenntnissen über Bakterien: ihre Fähigkeit zum "Quorum Sensing", zu snychronisierten Aktivitäten, nachdem eine kritische Dichte erreicht ist. Der TED Fellow Danino erklärt, wie Quorum Sensing funktioniert – und wie schlaue kooperierende Bakterien die Zukunft der Krebstherapie revolutionieren können.
