Mashup Score: 15Bacteria subtype linked to growth in up to 50% of human colorectal cancers, Fred Hutch researchers report - 1 month(s) ago
SEATTLE — March 20, 2024 — Researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center have found that a specific subtype of a microbe commonly found in the mouth is able to travel to the gut and grow within colorectal cancer tumors. This microbe is also a culprit for driving cancer progression and leads to poorer patient outcomes after cancer treatment. The findings, published March 20 in the journal Nature, could help improve therapeutic approaches and early screening methods for colorectal cancer, which is the
