25 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Purpose: While evidence indicates that Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) may promote colorectal carcinogenesis through its suppressive effect on T-cell–mediated antitumor immunity, the specific T-cell subsets involved remain uncertain. Experimental Design: We measured F. nucleatum DNA within tumor tissue by quantitative PCR on 933 cases (including 128 F. nucleatum–positive cases) among 4,465...
