Engineered bacteria detect tumor DNA. Synthetic biology has developed sophisticated cellular biosensors to detect, respond to human disease. Here, we engineered naturally competent Acinetobacter baylyi to detect donor DNA from genomes of #colorectalcancer (CRC) cells, organoids, and tumors. We characterized the functionality of the biosensors in vitro with coculture assays and then validated them in vivo with sensor bacteria delivered to mice harboring colorectal tumors. https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/science.adf3974

“Recent evidence has demonstrated that individuals with low-risk #precancerous lesions that are resected during colonoscopy are not at significant risk of future #ColorectalCancer compared with the general population and do not require intense colonoscopy surveillance. Conversely, individuals with high-risk precancerous lesions that are removed appear to benefit from surveillance colonoscopy”

My left ankle and foot are hurting in new and exciting way. Hopefully I just need a new AFO and nothing's messed up too bad. Cancer is just an endless parade of crap. #colorectalcancer
The influence of COVID-19 on colorectal cancer was investigated using bioinformatics and systems biology techniques. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmed.2023.1169562 #Covid19 #ColorectalCancer #DifferentiallyExpressedGenes #GeneOntology #Protein–ProteinInteraction

A new study found the risk of colorectal cancer,
For young men, was a major factor
Exercise, a poor diet, smoking and drinking,
Are all factors increasing the risk, we should be thinking
Early screening should be done, it's the key
To catch this disease, before it's too late to flee

@statto The approach is being investigated in other solid #cancers like #melanoma or #colorectalcancer as well: reduce tumor burden with surgical resection and then add vaccination to the adjuvant (maximum) treatment...ideally a blueprint for success. Let's see what the trials will show... #immunology #immunotherapy

“Instead, they saw a difference with the fungi Cladosporium sp., which appeared more often in the tumors of early-onset colorectal cancer patients. A series of other bacteria were more common in the tumors of older patients and not found at all in younger patients.” #isogg #dna #epigenetics #cancer #colorectalcancer #geneadons https://www.axios.com/2023/05/26/new-bacterial-clues-young-people-colorectal-cancer
