The latest discovery can detect the changes of special bacteria in the stool to detect early colorectal cancer

Japanese researchers have recently found that early colorectal cancer can be detected by detecting changes in specific bacteria in the stool (http://www.chemdrug.com/sell/76/) This research result is expected to be used in the early detection of colorectal cancer and the prevention of cancer by improving the intestinal flora Researchers from the National Cancer Research Center of Japan, Tokyo University of technology, Osaka University and other institutions analyzed the stools of 616 people including healthy people (http://www.chemdrug.com/article/7/) and early colorectal cancer patients (http://www.chemdrug.com/article/7/), and analyzed the increase and decrease of intestinal bacteria and material metabolism by means of macrogenomic sequencing The researchers published the new technology in the British journal Nature Medicine to detect early colorectal cancer Each person has an average of about 40 trillion bacteria in their intestines, which are linked to a variety of diseases, including intestinal diseases, the report said The researchers found that the two special bacteria, microtopolis and actinomycetes denticulatus, increased in the early stage of colorectal cancer They believed that the increase of these two bacteria was not the result of colorectal cancer but the cause By detecting these two kinds of bacteria increment in stool, early colorectal cancer can be screened, and the detection accuracy can reach about 80% However, the current detection of early colorectal cancer is usually occult blood test, with low accuracy.
