Abstract excerpt
Fusobacterium nucleatum has been implicated in colorectal cancer, but its role in adenomas remains unclear. We applied an RNA-based detection of F. nucleatum in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded adenoma tissue and explored the mutational landscape and transcriptomic profile of F. nucleatum+ patients in comparison to F. nucleatum- patients. Bespoke F. nucleatum probes successfully detected F. nucleatum in 11% of...
