DNA analysis shows colorectal cancer has unique microbial fingerprint

Colorectal cancer is unique in having its own microbial "fingerprint," according to new research from the University of East Anglia.

Colorectal Cancer Exhibits Distinct Microbial Signature, DNA Analysis

In a groundbreaking new study spearheaded by researchers at the University of East Anglia (UEA), an unprecedented microbial signature has been identified uniquely associated with colorectal cancer, reshaping long-standing paradigms in oncology and microbial genomics. This extensive research, analyzing whole genome sequencing (WGS) data from over 9,000 cancer patients, delves into the intricate relationships between human tumours and their microb…
