Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is an important threat to human health and the fourth leading cause of mortality worldwide. Accumulating evidence indicates that the composition of the intestinal flora is associated with the occurrence of CRC. Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), one of the highly enriched bacteria in CRC tissues, invades the mucosa with adhesion factors and virulence proteins, interacts with the host immune system and promotes the occurrence and development of CRC and chemoresistance. Fn infection is prevalent in human colorectal carcinoma, although the infection rate varies in different regions. Fn may be used as a prognostic indicator of CRC. It is important to understand the multi‑pathway carcinogenic mechanisms associated with CRC in order to develop novel antibacterial drugs against Fn. The current review summarizes the role of Fn and relevant research concerning CRC published in recent years, focusing on Fn infection in CRC, pathogenesis of Fn, Fn‑positive CRC treatment, screening and prevention strategies against Fn‑positive CRC.
