Bacteroides fragilis Toxin Induces Cleavage and Proteasome Degradation of E-cadherin in Human Breast Cancer Cell Lines BT-474 and MCF7

Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) has been reported to promote colitis and colon cancer through the secretion of B. fragilis toxin (BFT), a zinc-dependent metalloprotease. In colonic epithelial cells, BFT induces the cleavage of E-cadherin into the 80 kDa ectodomain and the 33 kDa membrane...
