Microorganisms within the gut and other niches may contribute to carcinogenesis, as well as
shaping cancer immunosurveillance and response to immunotherapy. Our understanding of …

This review focuses on nonlytic outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), a subtype of bacterial
extracellular vesicles (BEVs) produced by Gram-negative organisms focusing on the …

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are important tools in bacterial virulence but their role in
the pathogenesis of infections caused by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 …

Infections are estimated to contribute to 20% of all human tumours. Viruses are known to
induce cell transformation, but evidence has also linked bacteria, such as Helicobacter …

In the past few decades, great progress has been achieved in the understanding of
microbiome-cancer interactions. However, most of the studies have focused on the gut …

The intratumoral microbiota has been recently identified as important in cancer evasion
strategies. It can induce DNA damage, favor the epithelial–mesenchymal transition …

The colonic epithelium is exposed to a mixture of compounds through diet, among which
some are procarcinogens, whereas others have a protective effect. Therefore, the net impact …

Simple Summary Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality
worldwide, and its incidence is steadily rising in developing areas. Bacterial pathogens from …

The nucleus, at the heart of the eukaryotic cell, hosts and protects the genetic material,
governs gene expression and regulates the whole cell physiology, including cell division. A …

Bacterial genotoxins are unique among bacterial toxins as their molecular target is DNA.
The consequence of intoxication or infection is induction of DNA breaks that, if not properly …
