Cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1 hinders colon tumorigenesis induced by colibactin-producing Escherichia coli in ApcMin/+ mice

ABSTRACTColorectal cancer (CRC) patients are frequently colonized by colibactin-producing Escherichia coli (CoPEC) (>40%), which enhances tumorigenesis in mouse models of CRC. We observed that 50% of CoPEC also contains the cnf1 gene, which encodes cytotoxic necrotizing factor-1 (CNF1), an enhanc...
