Are Helicobacter Species and Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis Involved in Inflammatory Bowel Disease?

, 2004
The aim of this study was to determine if either Helicobacter or enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) was linked to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), using PCR. We analyzed the luminal washings and colonic biopsies of 35 patients with IBD and 37

Pathogenic Niche Establishment of Bacteroides fragilis [PDF]

, 2016
Eukaryotic organisms are, in part, defined by their associated microbiota, composed of a complex series of relationships between species. Bacteroides fragilis is a ubiquitous anaerobic bacterium in the mammalian intestinal tract.

The myeloid immune signature of Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis-induced murine colon tumorigenesis [PDF]

, 2018
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF), a human commensal and candidate pathogen in colorectal cancer (CRC), is a potent initiator of IL-17-dependent colon tumorigenesis in Min mice.

A clostripain-like protease plays a major role in generating the secretome of enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis

, 2020
Bacteroides fragilis toxin (BFT) is a protein secreted by enterotoxigenic (ETBF) strains of B. fragilis. BFT is synthesized as a proprotein (proBFT) that is predicted to be a lipoprotein and that is cleaved into two discrete fragments by a clostripain ...

Ishal etkeni olarak enterotoksijenik Bacteroides fragilis.

, 2002
The etiology of almost half of the diarrheal diseases has not been cleared yet, in spite of modern diagnostic methods. Bacteroides fragilis strains which secrete an enterotoxin are termed as enterotoxigenic B.fragilis (ETBF). These strains are associated

Polyamine catabolism contributes to enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis -induced colon tumorigenesis

, 2011
It is estimated that the etiology of 20–30% of epithelial cancers is directly associated with inflammation, although the direct molecular events linking inflammation and carcinogenesis are poorly defined.

Characterization of bft Genes among Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis Isolates from Extraintestinal Specimens at a University Hospital in Korea [PDF]

, 2017
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) produces enterotoxins known to be a virulence factor. Three isotypes of the B. fragilis toxin (BFT) gene have been identified: bft-1, bft-2, and bft-3. We investigated the presence of bft isotypes in clinical B.

ZINC and CANCER: How Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) Alters Zinc Transporter Dynamics Across Divergent Carcinomas

Title: Systemic Nutritional Immunity and Pathogenic Zinc Theft: How Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) Alters Zinc Transporter Dynamics Across Divergent Carcinomas.   Short Description: Why do some cancers hoard zinc while others completely purge it? This paper unmasks an unseen variable: systemic zinc-theft driven by the gut pathobiont ETBF.

Reduction of Murine Colon Tumorigenesis Driven by Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis Using Cefoxitin Treatment

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Chronic inflammation and composition of the colon microbiota have been associated with colorectal cancer in humans. The human commensal enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) is linked to both inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal
