Fusobacteria This is one of the strains of bacteria in the mouth that often cause gum disease, but may actually be resisted by diligent toothbrush or dental hygiene.In the first study, fusobacteria is associated with colorectal cancer (colon and rectum), although it is not known whether the bacteria are associated with tumor growth or not.
The study, conducted by a team of researchers from the Harvard Medical School, fusobacteria proven emerged with high levels in the adenoma or benign tumor in the intestines and can sometimes turn into cancer.After conducting experiments on mice, researchers were able to prove that fusobacteria accelerates colorectal tumor formation by attracting a number of special immune cells that can attack and turn on the inflammatory response, which can lead to cancer.Then in a second study conducted by a team of researchers from Case Western Reserve University fusobacteria seen that on the surface there is a molecule that allows them to attach to cells of human colorectal cancer.
Molecule called Fada it can turn on cancer genes and stimulates the growth of an inflammatory response that can drive tumor formation.The team of researchers from Case Western also ensure if Fada levels seen 10 to 100 times higher in the tissues of patients with colorectal adenoma and cancer than healthy people.'We have proved that Fada is an indicator that can be used for early detection of colorectal cancer, including in identifying potential therapeutic targets for treating or preventing the deadly disease that attacks many people are, "said Prof. Yiping Han from Case Western as reported by the BBC, Friday (08/16/2013).Luckily, a synthetic compound that can inhibit performance Fada also been found by the team of Prof.. Han and may prevent fusobacteria encourage the growth of colorectal cancer cells
