Fusobacterial Lectin and Colon Cancer (IMAGE)
Caption
This visual abstract depicts the findings of Abed and Emgard et al., who identify a host polysaccharide, Gal-GalNAc, and fusobacterial lectin (Fap2) that explicates fusobacteria abundance in CRC. Targeting Fap2 or host Gal-GalNAc may provide a means to reduce F. nucleatum potentiation of CRC.
