%X The microbiota can impact antitumor immunity, but whether the microbiota regulates omental antitumor immunity remains elusive. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Meza-Perez et al. demonstrated that Proteobacteria consume arginine to increase Treg cell suppressive capacity and inhibit antitumor immune responses, promoting tumor growth in the omentum.
