Introduction

• Cancer results from a series of molecular events that fundamentally alter the normal properties of cells.
• The genes involved in the development of cancer are classified as oncogenes.
• Cancer in developing nations is increasing due to polluted environmental conditions and soon to be a key
problem as life expectancy rises.
• There are 11 million reported cancer cases globally, and more than half (6 million) happen in low and
intermediate income countries.
• The American Cancer Society (ACS) assessments that this number will rise to 27 million cases by 2050,
generally due to increasing global population and aging.
• According to WHO 9.7 million new cases are noticed every single year and 6.7 million Individuals dying
due to cancer.

Bacterial pathogens involve in cancer patient infections
• Cancer patients have more possibility of getting opportunistic infection i.e. tuberculosis, pneumonia,
diarrhoea, gonorrhoea, meningitis and many other infections.
• Bacteria pathogens involve in various types of cancer patients are (Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter sp,
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Escherichia coli, Listeria sp, Actinobacter baumannii, Salmonella sp,
Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio cholera and Yersinia sp).
• Because these patients are immune-compromised due to cancer causing abnormalities.
• The misuse of antimicrobial agents perform a key role in the development of MDR bacteria especially
Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases (ESBL) producing bacteria like Salmonella, Proteus, Shigella,
Escherichia coli.
• Antibiotic resistant Bacteria especially ESBL producing pathogen spread rapidly because these pathogens
are very small entities it is transfer from one country to another country by travelling of people.
• ESBLs producing bacteria are the most abundant in Enterobacteriaceae family, with more than 600 natural
variants.

Conti…
• In recent times growing evidence indicated that blood leucocytes, i.e. monocytes and lymphocytes which
is further developed into macrophage’s are significantly interconnected to the diagnoses and treatment of
various types of cancers.
• There is a strong communication between leucocytes and microbial infection. Leucocytes play a very
critical role to defend against microbial invasion.
• Especially neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and lymphocytes.
• The platelets also perform an important role in immune system of our body during bacterial and parasitic
infections.
• The analysis of Complete Blood Count (CBC) is done through two ways. The programmed or automatic
system and a manual system.
6
Conti…
• C-Reactive protein CRP is a significant acute phase complementary system associated protein.
• Which is present in normal serum of humans and produced by macrophage which release cytokines when
bacteria is engulf by macrophage.
• CRP can be precipitated by C-reactive substances which occur in numerous microorganisms – e.g.
Streptococcus pneumoniae (the basis of the C-reactive protein diagnostic test) and Aspergillus fumigatus
[Binding of CRP to C-reactive substance of Aspergillus fumigatus].
• Changes in CRP level may help to differentiate between bacterial and viral infections.
• A rise in the serum level of CRP is more likely to reflect a bacterial infection because viral infections typically
do not produce such a change.

Aims of the present study were to investigate the susceptibility of various types of cancer patients
toward bacterial infections. Furthermore to analyze the number of blood cells and protein contributing
in immunity during bacterial infections & malignancies.
Objectives of the current study were as follows:
I. Identification and antibiotic susceptibility of bacterial pathogens isolated from blood & urine
samples of various cancer and non-cancer patients.
II. Screening of ESBL producing bacteria among the isolated bacterial pathogens.
III. Comparative analysis of Urine, CBC and CRP in cancer and non-cancer patients.

Blood analysis of Non-cancer patients
Conclusion
38
• Clinical specimens (200) were collected in which 110 (55 %) pathogenic
bacteria were isolated out of which 18 (9.36%) were ESBL producing
bacteria.
• The isolated cancer bacteria are E. coli, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa,
Salmonella, bacillus spp, Enterobacter spp, Mycobacterium Spp, S.
pyogene, H. pylori, Klebsiella spp. S. epidermidis and Shigella.
• The isolated non-cancer bacteria are E. coli, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa,
Salmonella, bacillus spp, Enterobacter spp, Mycobacterium Spp, S.
pyogene, Klebsiella spp. S. epidermidis and Shigella.
39
Conti…
• The ESBL producing cancer bacteria are E. coli, P. aeruginosa, Enterobacter spp.
and Klebsiella spp .
• The ESBL producing non-cancer bacteria are E. coli, P. aeruginosa, Enterobacter
spp. Klebsiella spp and Shigella.
• In total 50 cancer patients blood sample CRP were analysed that (42%) patients
have the Lowest (0.92 mg/L), (19%) was (0.92-1.93 mg/L) (22%) was (1.94-3.69
mg/L) and (20%) patients were on the Highest (>3.69 mg/L) risk.
• In 50 non-cancer blood sample the CRP level are (18%) patients were (0.92
mg/L), (22%) patients were (0.92-1.93 mg/L), (50%) were patients (1.94-3.69
mg/L) and (06%) patients were Highest (>3.69 mg/L) risk.
40
Conti…
• The blood analysis were performed for cancer patients in which 60 % patient were
high level of WBC and non-cancer patients were 56 % were High level of WBC.
• Total 100 urine samples is also microscopically studied for presence of bacteria in
cancer which is 86% and 78% in non-cancer samples.
• Maximum resistivity (91%) were showed by penicillin and maximum sensitivity
(78%) were showed by rifampicin against isolated bacterial pathogens.
41
Recommendations
42
• Continuous ESBL screening and supervision are necessary at hospital settings to
observe and develop approaches for monitoring and controlling.
• Experimental treatment must be unfavourable which the main cause of ESBL
development in bacteria.
• Community awareness is required for use and mismanagement of antibiotics.
• Sale of antimicrobial drugs without prescription must be inhibited to regulate
resistance problem.
• Alternate approaches must be hopeful to find out novel sources of antibacterial for
regulate of bacterial resistance on the way to existing obtainable antibiotics.
43
Conti…
• More research studies are required to study cancer and non- cancerous patients on
microbiological, molecular and immunological level.
• Advance Studies are required to correlate CRP level in the serum of cancer and
bacterial infected patients.
• Which will facilitate the physicians to use a diagnostic procedure for diagnosis of
cancer and bacterial infected indirectly.
• It require long term research, commitment and budget availability.

  • 4. • Cancer results from a series of molecular events that fundamentally alter the normal properties of cells. • The genes involved in the development of cancer are classified as oncogenes. • Cancer in developing nations is increasing due to polluted environmental conditions and soon to be a key problem as life expectancy rises. • There are 11 million reported cancer cases globally, and more than half (6 million) happen in low and intermediate income countries. • The American Cancer Society (ACS) assessments that this number will rise to 27 million cases by 2050, generally due to increasing global population and aging. • According to WHO 9.7 million new cases are noticed every single year and 6.7 million Individuals dying due to cancer. 4
  • 5. Bacterial pathogens involve in cancer patient infections • Cancer patients have more possibility of getting opportunistic infection i.e. tuberculosis, pneumonia, diarrhoea, gonorrhoea, meningitis and many other infections. • Bacteria pathogens involve in various types of cancer patients are (Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter sp, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Escherichia coli, Listeria sp, Actinobacter baumannii, Salmonella sp, Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio cholera and Yersinia sp). • Because these patients are immune-compromised due to cancer causing abnormalities. • The misuse of antimicrobial agents perform a key role in the development of MDR bacteria especially Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases (ESBL) producing bacteria like Salmonella, Proteus, Shigella, Escherichia coli. • Antibiotic resistant Bacteria especially ESBL producing pathogen spread rapidly because these pathogens are very small entities it is transfer from one country to another country by travelling of people. • ESBLs producing bacteria are the most abundant in Enterobacteriaceae family, with more than 600 natural variants. 5
  • 6. Conti… • In recent times growing evidence indicated that blood leucocytes, i.e. monocytes and lymphocytes which is further developed into macrophage’s are significantly interconnected to the diagnoses and treatment of various types of cancers. • There is a strong communication between leucocytes and microbial infection. Leucocytes play a very critical role to defend against microbial invasion. • Especially neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and lymphocytes. • The platelets also perform an important role in immune system of our body during bacterial and parasitic infections. • The analysis of Complete Blood Count (CBC) is done through two ways. The programmed or automatic system and a manual system. 6
  • 7. Conti… • C-Reactive protein CRP is a significant acute phase complementary system associated protein. • Which is present in normal serum of humans and produced by macrophage which release cytokines when bacteria is engulf by macrophage. • CRP can be precipitated by C-reactive substances which occur in numerous microorganisms – e.g. Streptococcus pneumoniae (the basis of the C-reactive protein diagnostic test) and Aspergillus fumigatus [Binding of CRP to C-reactive substance of Aspergillus fumigatus]. • Changes in CRP level may help to differentiate between bacterial and viral infections. • A rise in the serum level of CRP is more likely to reflect a bacterial infection because viral infections typically do not produce such a change. 7

  • #5: Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. he genes that code for the positive cell cycle regulators are called proto-oncogenes. Proto-oncogenes are normal genes that, when mutated in certain ways, become oncogenes: genes that cause a cell to become cancerous. There are several ways by which a proto-oncogene can be converted into an oncogene.
  • #6: non-specpic doage of antibiotics and for proYou can spread an ESBL infection simply by touching someone or leaving bacteria on a surface that someone else touches. This can include: shaking hands breathing on someone handling an object that is then handled by someone else per duration also a cause of esbl ,,,,, The Enterobacteriaceae are a large family of Gram-negative bacteria that includes, along with many harmless symbionts, many of the more familiar pathogens, such as Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Yersinia pestis, Klebsiella, and Shigella.

Neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils are granulocytes. A granulocyte is a type of white blood cell. Hematopoiesis The formation of new blood cells. Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells
  • #8: CRP is produced in the liver and its level is measured by testing the blood. CRP is classified as an acute phase reactant, which means that its levels will rise in response to inflammation. Complement is a system of plasma proteins that can be activated directly by pathogens or indirectly by pathogen-bound antibody, leading to a cascade of reactions that occurs on the surface of pathogens and generates active components with various effector functions. any of a number of substances, such as interferon, interleukin,
