This could be a game-changer: Fusobacterium infection of the endometrium might contribute to endometriosis.

In a study of 79 human patients Fusobacterium was more frequent in patients with endometriosis (64·3%) than in controls.

In mice, antibiotic treatment appeared to be effective.

These microbes are human papilloma virus, known as HPV, and the bacteria Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum. That matters because HNSCC is a common cancer that forms in the lining of

Fusobacterium nucleatum is a fascinating troublemaker. This organism is ubiquitous in the human mouth, making it a symbiotic member of the healthy, human microbiome! However, it may play a role in endometriosis, colorectal cancer and has even been implicated in preterm birth and neonatal sepsis.
