Gut microbiota imbalance and colorectal cancer
2016
International audience; The gut microbiota acts as a real organ. The symbiotic interactions between resident micro-organisms and the digestive tract highly contribute to maintain the gut homeostasis. However, alterations to the microbiome caused by environmental changes (e.g., infection, diet and/or lifestyle) can disturb this symbiotic relationship and promote disease, such as inflammatory bowel diseases and cancer. Colorectal cancer is a complex association of tumoral cells, non-neoplastic cells and a large amount of micro-organisms, and the involvement of the microbiota in colorectal carcinogenesis is becoming increasingly clear. Indeed, many changes in the bacterial composition of the g…
CTX-M β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli in French Hospitals: Prevalence, Molecular Epidemiology, and Risk Factors▿
2007
ABSTRACT In 2004, 65 CTX-M-producing Escherichia coli isolates were collected from infected patients in four French hospitals. The bla CTX-M-15 genes were predominant. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis highlighted a clonal propagation of CTX-M-15-producing strains belonging to phylogenetic group B2, notably in the community. The main risk factors for acquiring these isolates were urinary tract infections or the presence of a urinary catheter in diabetic or renal failure patients.
[How some commensal bacteria would exacerbate colorectal carcinogenesis?].
2016
International audience; The gut microbiota maintains a relationship with its host with strong mutual benefits. Changes in the composition of the intestinal microbiota have been detected in colorectal cancer patients to the extent that it is now considered as a real contributing factor in this pathology. In this review, we focus on three commensal bacterial species, namely Bacteroides fragilis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Escherichia coli, which seem to emerge as pathogens and to contribute to colorectal carcinogenesis through their inflammatory and oncogenic properties.; Le microbiote intestinal entretient une relation mutualiste forte avec l’hôte. Depuis la mise en évidence de modificatio…
