Potential of fecal microbiota for early‐stage detection of colorectal cancer

Potential of fecal microbiota for early‐stage detection of colorectal cancer

Abstract Several bacterial species have been implicated in the development of colorectal carcinoma (CRC), but CRC‐associated changes of fecal microbiota and their potential for cancer screening remain to be explored. Here, we used metagenomic sequencing of fecal samples to identify taxonomic markers...
