Fusobacterium nucleatum can bind to host cells and potentiate intestinal tumorigenesis. Here, we used a genome-wide screen to identify an adhesin, RadD, which facilitates the attachment of F. nucleatum to CRC cells in vitro. RadD directly binds to CD147, a receptor overexpressed on CRC cell surfaces, which initiated a PI3K-AKT-NF-kB-MMP9 cascade, subsequently enhanceing tumorigenesis in mice. Clinical specimen analysis showed that elevated radD levels in CRC tissues correlated positively with activated oncogenic signaling and poor patient outcomes. Finally, blockade of the interaction between RadD and CD147 in mice effectively impaired F. nucleatum attachment and attenuated F. nucleatum-induced oncogenic response. Together, our study provides insights into an oncogenic mechanism driven by F. nucleatum RadD and suggests taht the RadD-CD147 interaction could be a potential therapeutic target for CRC.
