Streptococcus gallolyticus infection in colorectal cancer and association with biological and clinical factors
There is an unambiguous association of Streptococcus gallolyticus infection with colorectal cancer, although there is limited information about epidemiology or interaction between molecular and environmental factors. We performed an original quantitative analysis of S. gallolyticus in unselected colorectal cancer patients (n = 190) and their association with clinical, pathological tumor molecul...
متن کاملSignificance of Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus Association With Colorectal Cancer
Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus Sgg (formerly known as S. bovis type I) is the main causative agent of septicemia and infective endocarditis (IE) in elderly and immunocompromised persons. It belongs to the few opportunistic bacteria, which have been strongly associated to colorectal cancer (CRC). A literature survey covering a period of 40 years (1970–2010) revealed that 65% of p...
متن کاملNovel clues on the specific association of Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp gallolyticus with colorectal cancer.
BACKGROUND The prevalence of Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp gallolyticus ( Streptococcus bovis biotype I) endocarditis is in general low but very often linked to colorectal cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to reveal the virulence characteristics that distinguish this opportunistic pathogen from a panel of (closely related) intestinal bacteria. METHODS The route of infection was reconstru...
متن کاملClinical Importance of Streptococcus gallolyticus infection among colorectal cancer patients: systematic review and meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Streptococcus bovis has long been associated with colorectal cancer (CRC). However, not all genospecies are as closely related to CRC. With this systematic review, we aim to increase the awareness of the association between S. bovis biotype I (Streptococcus gallolyticus) and CRC and urge for uniform molecular microbiological classification. METHODS In January 2011, the PubMed datab...
