Increased Epithelial Oxygenation Links Colitis to an Expansion of Tumorigenic Bacteria.
Intestinal inflammation is a risk factor for colorectal cancer formation, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we investigated whether colitis alters the colonic microbiota to enhance its cancer-inducing activity. Colitis increased epithelial oxygenation in the colon of mice and drove an expansion of Topics: Aerobiosis; Animals; Carcinogenesis; Colitis; Colorectal Neoplasms; Dextran Sulfate; Escherichia coli; Escherichia coli Infections; Female; Gastrointestinal Microbiome; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Oxygen; Peptides; Polyketides | 2019 |
