Targeting <i>Fusobacterium nucleatum</i> through chemical modifications of host-derived transfer RNA fragments

Abstract excerpt

Host mucosal barriers possess an arsenal of defense molecules to maintain host-microbe homeostasis such as antimicrobial peptides and immunoglobulins. In addition to these well-established defense molecules, we recently reported small RNAs (sRNAs)-mediated interactions between human oral keratinocytes and Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), an oral pathobiont with increasing implications in extra-oral diseases....
