<i>In vitro</i> analysis of <i>Fusobacterium Polymorphum</i> from oral leukoplakia patients identifies “high-risk” isolates

2025-10-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Mounting evidence links F. nucleatum , particularly subsp. polymorphum (now classified as F. polymorphum ) to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, not all studies support this association, and its ubiquitous presence in health complicates its role as a driver of disease, raising a fundamental question: Can some isolates be pathogenic “high risk” while others are not? Here, we inv...
