Fusobacterium nucleatum stimulates cell proliferation and promotes PD-L1 expression via IFIT1-related signal in colorectal cancer

Yaqi Gao et al.

Summary: This study reveals that Fusobacterium nucleatum (F. nucleatum) is enriched in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues and is associated with an immunosuppressive tumor environment. The researchers demonstrate that F. nucleatum promotes CRC progression by upregulating PD-L1 protein expression through the m(6)A-modified IFIT1 pathway. Clinical data confirms the correlation between F. nucleatum abundance, IFIT1, and PD-L1 expressions.

Molecular and Pathology Features of Colorectal Tumors and Patient Outcomes Are Associated with Fusobacterium nucleatum and Its Subspecies animalis

Ivan Borozan et al.

Summary: This study found an association between F. nucleatum and its subspecies animalis with tumor characteristics and colorectal cancer-specific survival. The presence of F. nucleatum, particularly subspecies animalis, was associated with a higher colorectal cancer-specific mortality and specific somatic mutated genes.

Tumour burden and efficacy of immune-checkpoint inhibitors

Filippo G. Dall'Olio et al.

Summary: High tumour burden is linked to inferior outcomes in traditional cancer therapies and immune-checkpoint inhibitors. Research suggests that tumour burden negatively impacts anticancer immunity, serving as a potential biomarker to guide treatment strategies with immune-checkpoint inhibitors.

Effect of the intratumoral microbiota on spatial and cellular heterogeneity in cancer

Jorge Luis Galeano Nino et al.

Summary: The study investigates the interactions between tumor-associated microbiota and host cells in oral squamous cell carcinoma and colorectal cancer using in situ spatial-profiling technologies and single-cell RNA sequencing. The results show that the distribution of microbiota within the tumor is highly organized in microniches with immune and epithelial cell functions, promoting cancer progression.

Cancer as microenvironmental, systemic and environmental diseases: opportunity for transdisciplinary microbiomics science

Kentaro Inamura et al.

Summary: Cancer should be regarded as a systemic and environmental disease, beyond the localised tumour microenvironment. The exposome, which includes various exposures, can alter the microbiome and immune system, affecting tumour phenotypes. To understand the complex role of the exposome, microbiome, and immunome, it is important to conduct interdisciplinary human population research integrated with advanced methodologies like artificial intelligence and molecular pathological epidemiology.

Fusobacterium is enriched in oral cancer and promotes induction of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)

Chieko Michikawa et al.

Summary: This study found that Fusobacterium was enriched in oral tongue cancer while Rothia and Streptococcus were enriched in adjacent normal tissues. Alpha diversity was reduced in tumor samples compared to normal tissues. Infection with Fusobacterium species increased the expression of PD-L1 mRNA and protein.

A meta-analysis of CD274 (PD-L1) assessment and prognosis in colorectal cancer and its role in predicting response to anti-PD-1 therapy

Peter G. Alexander et al.

Summary: CD274 is not a useful prognostic marker in CRC, but may be indicative of response to anti-PD-1 therapy. Standardization of assessment methodology is needed, with potential adoption of the CPS scoring system used in upper GI cancer. Thresholds for CRC are yet to be determined.

Fusobacterium nucleatum Promotes the Progression of Colorectal Cancer Through Cdk5-Activated Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling

Xiang Li et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that Fusobacterium nucleatum abundance is significantly higher in CRC tissues and is closely associated with CRC progression. F. nucleatum enhances CRC cell proliferation and migration through activating Cdk5 and the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway, revealing a novel mechanism for CRC development.

Association of Fusobacterium nucleatum with Specific T-cell Subsets in the Colorectal Carcinoma Microenvironment

Jennifer Borowsky et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates an inverse association between F. nucleatum and stromal memory helper T cells in colorectal carcinoma. This relationship is consistent across different tumor characteristics such as microsatellite instability status, neoantigen load, and tumor mutational burden. F. nucleatum was not found to be significantly associated with intraepithelial T cells or M1/M2 TAMs in the tumor microenvironment.

Relationship between microsatellite status and immune microenvironment of colorectal cancer and its application to diagnosis and treatment

Junge Bai et al.

Summary: The microsatellite status of CRC patients is closely related to the immune microenvironment, with different statuses affecting clinical features, drug resistance, and prognosis. Understanding these differences can help transform immunologically cold tumors into hot tumors, providing important implications for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Molecular subtypes of colorectal cancer: An emerging therapeutic opportunity for personalized medicine

Manish Pratap Singh et al.

Summary: Molecular subtypes-based therapies provide a new potential framework for precise outcomes in clinical settings, as colorectal cancer is a highly heterogeneous malignancy with different pathological and genetic signatures in each subtype. Designing therapeutic stratification based on these features may lead to improved treatment outcomes.
