Abstract
The anaerobic bacterium Fusobacterium nucleatum is significantly associated with human colorectal cancer (CRC) and is considered a significant contributor to the disease. The mechanisms underlying the promotion of intestinal tumor formation by F. nucleatum have only been partially uncovered. Here, we showed that F. nucleatum releases a metabolite into the microenvironment that strongly activates NF-κB in intestinal epithelial cells via the ALPK1/TIFA/TRAF6 pathway. Furthermore, we showed that the released molecule had the biological characteristics of ADP-heptose. We observed that F. nucleatum induction of this pathway increased the expression of the inflammatory cytokine IL-8 and two anti-apoptotic genes known to be implicated in CRC, BIRC3 and TNFAIP3. Finally, it promoted the survival of CRC cells and reduced 5-fluorouracil chemosensitivity in vitro. Taken together, our results emphasize the importance of the ALPK1/TIFA pathway in Fusobacterium induced-CRC pathogenesis, and identify the role of ADP-H in this process.

Abstract
A causal correlation between the metabolic disorders associated with sugar intake and disruption of the gastrointestinal (GI) homeostasis has been suggested, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To unravel these mechanisms, we investigated the effect of physiological amounts of fructose and glucose on barrier functions and inflammatory status in various regions of the GI tract and on the cecal microbiota composition. C57BL/6 mice were fed chow diet and given 15% glucose or 15% fructose in drinking water for 9 weeks. We monitored caloric intake, body weight, glucose intolerance, and adiposity. The intestinal paracellular permeability, cytokine, and tight junction protein expression were assessed in the jejunum, cecum, and colon. In the cecum, the microbiota composition was determined. Glucose-fed mice developed a marked increase in total adiposity, glucose intolerance, and paracellular permeability in the jejunum and cecum while fructose absorption did not affect any of these parameters. Fructose-fed mice displayed increased circulation levels of IL6. In the cecum, both glucose and fructose intake were associated with an increase in Il13, Ifnγ, and Tnfα mRNA and MLCK protein levels. To clarify the relationships between monosaccharides and barrier function, we measured the permeability of Caco-2 cell monolayers in response to IFNγ+TNFα in the presence of glucose or fructose. In vitro, IFNγ+TNFα-induced intestinal permeability increase was less pronounced in response to fructose than glucose. Mice treated with glucose showed an enrichment of Lachnospiracae and Desulfovibrionaceae while the fructose increased relative abundance of Lactobacillaceae. Correlations between pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression and bacterial abundance highlighted the potential role of members of Desulfovibrio and Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 group genera in the inflammation observed in response to glucose intake. The increase in intestinal inflammation and circulating levels of IL6 in response to fructose was observed in the absence of intestinal permeability modification, suggesting that the intestinal permeability alteration does not precede the onset of metabolic outcome (low-grade inflammation, hyperglycemia) associated with chronic fructose consumption. The data also highlight the deleterious effects of glucose on gut barrier function along the GI tract and suggest that Desulfovibrionaceae and Lachnospiraceae play a key role in the onset of GI inflammation in response to glucose.
