Abstract:
Colorectal cancer is a kind of cancer with high incidence in the world, and its etiology has not been completely understood yet. Gut bacteria take part in the occurrence and the progression of colorectal cancer in a number of ways, and thereinto, the enrichment of specific bacteria have been proved to be closely correlated with colorectal cancer. This article summarizes the changes of intestinal flora in patients with colorectal cancer and the bacteria related to colorectal cancer; and also discusses the strategies in treatment and prevention of colorectal cancer through regulating the intestinal flora.
