Bacteroides fragilisColorectal cancerEnterococcus faecalisFusobacterium sppStreptococcus gallolyticusThe association between specific bacteria and colorectal cancer (CRC) has been proposed. Only a few studies have, however, investigated this relationship directly in colorectal tissue with conflicting results. So, ...
Bacteroides fragilis is an important opportunistic pathogen of humans and is resistant to many drugs commonly used to treat anaerobic infections, including beta-lactams. A strain set comprised of B. fragilis isolates producing either low or high levels of the endogenous cephalosporinase activity, CepA...

As per the Law relating to information storage and personal integrity, you have the right to oppose (art 26 of that law), access (art 34 of that law) and rectify (art 36 of that law) your personal data. You may thus request that your data, should it be inaccurate, incomplete, ...
For instance, restoration of healthy gut microbiota in germ-free mice has been shown to improve cardiac function, prevent excessive fibrosis, and restore ECM integrity under stress conditions8. Additionally, Bacteroides fragilis has been found to ameliorate renal fibrosis in mice by inhibiting oxidative...
syntenic, locally collinear blocks (LCBs). For comparison, similarly sized genomes of other diverse bacterial species from the human gut (Clostridiodes difficile,Bacteroides fragilis,Escherichia coli) had between 76 and 83% of their sequences in syntenic LCBs (Fig.3, Additional file1: Figure S1)...
4F). The top five species that increased with the dietary treatments were Ruminococcus bromii, Rumminococcus flavefaciens, Lactobacillus reuteri, Bacteroides fragilis and Akkermansia muciniphila whereas the top five species that decreased with nopal consumption were Bacteroides acidifaciens, Blautia ...
nucleatum, and enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis have a role in colorectal carcinogenesis. In addition, bacteria produce toxins that inhibit the immune response and cause DNA damage [27]. However, F. nucleatum encodes no known toxins and very few canonical ‘virulence factors’ [6]. However, ...
Polysaccharide A from the capsule of Bacteroides fragilis induces clonal CD4+ T cell expansion. J Chem Biol. 2015;290(8):5007–14. CAS Google Scholar Ding Y, Song Z, Li H, Chang L, Pan T, Gu X, et al. Honokiol ameliorates high-fat diet-induced obesity of different sexes mice by ...
16 Similarly, engineering-inducible promoters in Bacteroides has enabled the study of host–microbe interactions through measurement of commensal sialidase activity and liberation of mucosal sialic acid, a nutrient for pathogens.17 Furthermore, new methods have been developed that permit genetic ...
