The colibactin toxin is widely distributed in Escherichia coli. Its synthesis is performed by enzymes encoded by the genomic island pks. It causes DNA double-strand breaks, mutations, chromosomal rearrangements in host cells and contributes to tumorigenesis in a mouse model. In addition, colibactin-producing E. coli are frequently isolated from tumors of patients with colorectal cancer. Our work shows that colibactin-producing bacteria induce cellular senescence and, consequently, can indirectly stimulate cell proliferation in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. The pro-proliferative effect mediated by these senescent cells is due to the secretion of growth factors, in particular HGF. The cell signaling responsible for cellular senescence show...
