Fusobacterium nucleatum Potentiates Intestinal Tumorigenesis and Modulates the Tumor-Immune Microenvironment

TL;DR: Data suggest that, through recruitment of tumor-infiltrating immune cells, fusobacteria generate a proinflammatory microenvironment that is conducive for colorectal neoplasia progression, and this work finds that F.nucleatum does not exacerbate colitis, enteritis, or inflammation-associated intestinal carcinogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-Term Colorectal-Cancer Incidence and Mortality after Lower Endoscopy

TL;DR: Colorectal cancer diagnosed within 5 years after colonoscopy was more likely than cancer diagnosed after that period or without prior endoscopy to have CIMP and microsatellite instability and colonoscopic was also associated with a modest reduction in the incidence of proximal colon cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microsatellite Instability and BRAF Mutation Testing in Colorectal Cancer Prognostication

TL;DR: Combined BRAF/MSI status in colorectal cancer is a tumor molecular biomarker for prognosic risk stratification and no evidence existed for a differential prognostic role of BRAF mutation by MSI status.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic Role of PIK3CA Mutation in Colorectal Cancer: Cohort Study and Literature Review

TL;DR: Coexistence of PIK3CA (the PI3K p110α subunit) exon 9 and 20 mutations, but not Pik3CA mutation in either exon 7 or 20 alone, is associated with poor prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.
