A proteomic investigation of Fusobacterium nucleatum alkaline-induced biofilms [PDF]
, 2012 Background: The Gram negative anaerobe Fusobacterium nucleatum has been implicated in the aetiology of periodontal diseases. Although frequently isolated from healthy dental plaque, its numbers and proportion increase in plaque associated with disease ...

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 ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Fusobacteria are common obligately anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria of the oral cavity that may act as a bridge between early and late colonizing bacteria in dental plaque and have a role in oral and extra-oral infections.

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.

Increasing Fusobacterium infections with Fusobacterium varium, an emerging pathogen.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Infections caused by Fusobacterium species are rare; however serious infections with complications or mortality may occur occasionally. We conducted a retrospective study to investigate the clinical features of patients with Fusobacterium infections and ...

Fusobacterium nucleatum — symbiont, opportunist and oncobacterium [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2018 Fusobacterium nucleatum has long been found to cause opportunistic infections and has recently been implicated in colorectal cancer; however, it is a common member of the oral microbiota and can have a symbiotic relationship with its hosts. To address this dissonance, we explore the diversity and niches of fusobacteria and reconsider historic ...

Carcinogenesis mechanisms of Fusobacterium nucleatum
Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2017 Transformed cells of cancers may be related to stromal cells, immune cells, and some bacteria such as Fusobacterium nucleatum. This review aimed to evaluate carcinogenesis mechanisms of Fusobacterium spp. in the oral cavity, pancreatic and colorectal cancers. These cancers are the three of the ten most prevalence cancer in the worldwide.

Fusobacterium nucleatum and the Immune System in Colorectal Cancer
, 2019 Purpose of Review To summarize the relationship between colorectal cancer (CRC), immunity, and the gut microbiome, focusing on the population of Fusobacterium, particularly Fusobacterium nucleatum, which may mediate CRC initiation and progression by ...
