Fusobacterium affects chemotherapy drugs

Fusobacterium affects chemotherapy drugs. Through Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (Myd88) of the TLR signaling pathway, Fusobacterium nucleatum induces the selective loss of two autophagy-related microRNAs (microRNA-18a [miR-18a] and microRNA-4802 [miR-4802MYD88]), which activate autophagy, thereby reducing the antitumor activity of oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil. Fn.: Fusobacterium nucleatum; LPS: lipopolysaccharide; miR-18a*: ‘*’ represents the by-product with a relatively low content; L-OHP: Oxaliplatin.
