Fusobacterium nucleatum [PDF]

Gut Microbes, 2011
The Gram-negative, non-sporulating, obligately anaerobic species, Fusobacterium nucleatum, is rapidly gaining notoriety as a pathogen with a surprising number of associated diseases. Recently, we have found that F. nucleatum is a more common resident of the GI tract than originally thought, and thus, through several studies, we have attempted to ...

Emphysematous Cholecystitis Secondary to Fusobacterium nucleatum [PDF]

Cureus, 2021
Fusobacterium nucleatum may be implicated in cases of emphysematous cholecystitis (EC) and carries a high mortality risk, especially in individuals with heart disease, renal insufficiency, and underlying malignancy. Fusobacterium infections are rarely detected in the setting of cholecystitis possibly due to the difficulty with properly culturing the ...

Hemagglutinating activity of Fusobacterium nucleatum [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1977
Gingival isolates of oral Fusobacterium nucleatum strains (gram-negative anaerobic fusiform bacilli) have shown the characteristic ability to hemagglutinate a variety of erythrocytes (RBC) of human and animal origin. Other members of the genus tested (F. necrophorus, F. varium, and F.

Fusobacterium nucleatum and Colorectal Cancer

Infection and Drug Resistance, 2022
Fusobacterium nucleatum (F.n) is an oral anaerobic gram-negative bacillus that can colonize into the colon tissues through bloodstream infection. F.n have been found to be involved in both the occurrence and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) through regulating immune response, virulence factor, oncogenic microRNAs, intestinal metabolites, DNA ...

Fusobacterium nucleatum dissemination by neutrophils

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2023
Recent studies uncovered that Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), a common, opportunistic bacterium in the oral cavity, is associated with a growing number of systemic diseases, ranging from colon cancer to Alzheimer's disease. However, the pathological mechanisms responsible for this association are still poorly understood.

A new type of Na+-driven ATP synthase membrane rotor with a two-carboxylate ion-coupling motif [PDF]

, 2013
: The anaerobic bacterium Fusobacterium nucleatum uses glutamate decarboxylation to generate a transmembrane gradient of Na+. Here, we demonstrate that this ion-motive force is directly coupled to ATP synthesis, via an F1Fo-ATP synthase with a novel Na ...

Fusobacterium nucleatum subsp. fusiforme subsp. nov. and Fusobacterium nucleatum subsp. animalis subsp. nov. as Additional Subspecies within Fusobacterium nucleatum [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1992
Using a variety of physiological, biochemical, and molecular systematic analyses, we have shown previously that there are four groups within the species Fusobacterium nucleatum. Two of these groups of strains correspond to the recently proposed taxa F. nucleatum subsp. nucleatum and F. nucleatum subsp. polymorphum.
