A colon cancer "prequel"
Abstract
The development of colorectal cancer has been predicted to inolve the enteric microbiome. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Kordahi et al. (2021) address this predisposition by identifying not just pathobiont micro-organisms but also distinct microbial signatures within those bacteria that predict the presence of pre-cancerous polyps.
