Network Analysis of Gut Microbiota Including < b > < i > Fusobacterium < /i > < /b > and Oral Origin Bacteria and Their Distribution on Tumor Surface, Normal Mucosa, and in Feces in Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Conclusion: In patients with CRC, many bacteria were correlated with each other, andFusobacterium and oral origin bacteria formed a positively correlated network on tumor surface.Fusobacterium was equally distributed on tumor surface and throughout the lumen and mucus in the colon. In the colon whereFusobacterium is widely distributed,Fusobacterium would adhere to the tumor surface and be correlated with oral origin bacteria to make a microenvironment that is favorable for CRC.Digestion
