New from the Bullman Lab in Cancer Cell!
Tumor-infiltrating bacteria, including Fusobacterium, disrupt cell-cell contacts & trigger quiescence, uncovering a pathway of bacteria-induced therapy resistance

Thanks to @MDAndersonNews, @FredHutch, @UTEPnews
Bacteria can impact cancer progression and treatment.
A new study shows how a particular bacteria can induce a reversible state in cancer epithelial cells, which allows tumors to evade the immune system and resist chemotherapy: bit.ly/4olyzz4 @BullmanLab #EndCancer
Beautiful work on Fusobacterium and CRC by @JessicaRQueen1, Drewes & Sears teams. “Biofilms were prevalent on colon tumors visualized in 68.8% ….more frequently observed on right-sided tumors (91.7%)”.
