Summary: | Colibactin-producing (pks+) Escherichia coli induce a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in which senescent cells secrete growth factors that stimulate epithelial proliferation and enhance tumor growth [5]. [...]microbial-induced cellular senescence and bystander proliferation provide additional mechanisms by which malignancy can arise from host-microbial interactions. [...]in the context of infection, microbial products such as lipopolysaccharide engage with Toll-like receptors to promote angiogenesis, an effect that is augmented by damage-associated molecular patterns that may also be present within the tumor microenvironment [8]. [...]the earliest observations linking the microbiota with the hallmarks of cancer have primarily focused on gastric cancers and CRC. [...]the cancer microenvironment itself can enhance the procarcinogenic activities of the microbiota [23], which further demonstrates the importance of the crosstalk between host and microbe in modulating cancer progression. |
