However, how oncomicrobes - like , found in the oral cavity and associated with CRC tissues affect these distinct aspects of tumorigenesis is difficult to parse. Herein, we found that neonatal inoculation of mice with strain Fn7-1 circumvents technical barriers preventing its intestinal colonization, drives colonic expression prior to tumor formation, and potentiates intestinal tumorigenesis.
