Diversity and distribution of sulfur metabolism in the human gut microbiome and its association with colorectal cancer

2021-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Microbial sulfidogenesis produces genotoxic hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) in the human gut using inorganic (sulfate) and organic (taurine/cysteine/methionine) substrates, however the majority of studies have focused on sulfate reduction using dissimilatory sulfite reductases (Dsr). Recent evidence implicates microbial sulfidogenesis as a potential trigger of colorectal cancer (CRC), highlighting the...
