Fusobacterium nucleatum extracellular vesicles are enriched in colorectal cancer and facilitate bacterial adhesion

Abstract excerpt

Fusobacterium nucleatum in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissue is implicated at multiple stages of the disease, while the mechanisms underlying bacterial translocation and colonization remain incompletely understood. Herein, we investigated whether extracellular vesicles derived from F. nucleatum (FnEVs) have impacts on bacterial colonization. In mice with colitis-related CRC, a notable enrichment of FnEVs was...
