One of the interesting findings, though might be predicted from the earlier results of the current study, the bacterial load of SGMB, in terms of log10CN/g, was positively correlated with mRNA ratio of IL-8 in TU SGMB+ve-CRC-w/bac (r = +0.82.3, P = 0.01) and TU SGMB+ve-CRC-wo/bac (r = +0.74, P = 0.02), COX-2 in TU SGMB+ve-CRC-w/bac (r = +0.83, P = 0.004), and IL-1 in TU SGMB+ve-CRC-w/bac (r = +0.78, P = 0.01). The gene discussed is CXCL8; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
