In previous research, bacteria were identified in human tumors by 16S rRNA sequencing. However, the microbial biomass in tumor tissue is too low and cannot be accurately identified by 16S rRNA sequencing.

However, the mechanisms of QX inhibiting colorectal cancer remain unclear. In current study, we attempted to determine the anti-colorectal cancer (CRC) effects of QX and the mechanisms of QX in alleviating colorectal cancer.

Our previous study has revealed that Candida tropicalis (C. tropicalis) promotes colorectal tumorigenesis by enhancing immunosuppressive function of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and increasing accumulation of MDSCs, but the underlying mechanisms remain unestablished.
