Early-Life Mutagenesis and the Rise of Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer.

Cancer discovery - 1 Apr 2026

Alexandrov Ludmil B, Brennan Paul, Stratton Michael R

Abstract excerpt

Colorectal cancer incidence is rising globally among individuals younger than 50 years and remains poorly explained by established risk factors. In this study, we advance the hypothesis that early-childhood exposure to mutagen-producing bacteria contributes to lifetime colorectal cancer risk by imprinting oncogenic mutations in the developing colorectal epithelium, thereby initiating tumorigenesis decades before...
