To investigate the oral microflora of patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), saliva samples were collected from 20 patients with ESCC and 21 healthy controls. The V3-V4 region of 16S rDNA was amplified and sequenced by the Illumina MiSeq high-throughput sequencing platform. The final sequences were used for OTU analysis. Alpha and beta diversity analysis showed that the bacterial diversity and richness of the ESCC group were lower than those of the control group, while the variability of the ESCC group was higher than that of the control group. According to the Metastats difference analysis and LEfSe analysis, the high risk of ESCC may be related to Actinomyces and Atopobium, while the healthy control group is closely related to Fusobacterium and Porphyromonas (the analysis was performed at the genus level). The establishment of the relationship between oral microbiota and risk of ESCC may lead to significant advances in understanding the aetiology of cancer and may open a new research paradigm for cancer prevention.

D000077277 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma A carcinoma that originates usually from cells on the surface of the middle and lower third of the ESOPHAGUS. Tumor cells exhibit typical squamous morphology and form large polypoid lesions. Mutations in RNF6, LZTS1, TGFBR2, DEC1, and WWOX1 genes are associated with this cancer. Oesophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
D000368 Aged A person 65 years of age or older. For a person older than 79 years, AGED, 80 AND OVER is available. Elderly
D001419 Bacteria One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to OXYGEN: aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic; by the mode by which they obtain their energy: chemotrophy (via chemical reaction) or PHOTOTROPHY (via light reaction); for chemotrophs by their source of chemical energy: CHEMOLITHOTROPHY (from inorganic compounds) or chemoorganotrophy (from organic compounds); and by their source for CARBON; NITROGEN; etc.; HETEROTROPHY (from organic sources) or AUTOTROPHY (from CARBON DIOXIDE). They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their CELL WALLS) with CRYSTAL VIOLET dye: gram-negative or gram-positive. Eubacteria
D016002 Discriminant Analysis A statistical analytic technique used with discrete dependent variables, concerned with separating sets of observed values and allocating new values. It is sometimes used instead of regression analysis. Analyses, Discriminant,Analysis, Discriminant,Discriminant Analyses
