MetabolomicsGlutathione is a host-derived cysteine source for Clostridioides difficile
Clostridioides difficile is the leading cause of nosocomial diarrhea, afflicting approximately half a million people each year in the USA, burdening both individuals’ quality of life and the healthcare system. In the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, C. difficile must acquire essential nutrients to colon...

MetabolomicsProfiling aromatic amino acid metabolome in the human gut microbiota reveals Clostridioides difficile specific N-acyl amino acids

Owing to its compositional and chemical complexity, much of the gut microbiota metabolome remains poorly characterized. Aromatic amino acids (AAAs) have a history of being privileged substrates for the biosynthesis of diverse bioactive metabolites and thus represent a potentially rich source of b...

MetabolomicsEctopic intestinal colonization by an oral commensal promotes C. difficile infection in Crohn’s disease
Crohn’s disease is a severe inflammatory disorder of the intestine for which there is no cure. People suffering from Crohn’s disease are at increased risk of developing Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), which considerably exacerbates symptoms. Using a prospective observational clinical study...

MetabolomicsClostridioides difficile-commensal interactions are impacted by diet more than differences between strain

The purpose of this study was to investigate how C. difficile metabolism differs between strains as a function of diet. We used three C. difficile strains (R20291, Cd4, and Cd10). Each strain was grown in three different media conditions designed to mimic different diet conditio...

MetabolomicsDietary iron attenuates Clostridioides difficile infection via modulating intestinal immune response and gut microbiota

Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) causes antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Susceptibility to C. difficile infection (CDI) is largely affected by the gut microbiota, which in turn is influenced by diet. However, the mechanism underlying the interplay between diet and the gut mic...

MetabolomicsBlocking Toxin function and Modulating Gut Microbiota: Caffeic Acid and its Derivatives as Potential Treatments for Clostridioides difficile Infections

Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is the leading cause of hospital-acquired diarrhea that seriously threaten public health. Disruption of normal gut microbiota by the use of broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents enables C. difficile to proliferate in the colon. The emergence and prevalence o...

TranscriptomicsModulation of mucosal immune responses to Clostridium difficile by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and microRNA-146b
BACKGROUND: miRNA have been shown to play an important role during immune-mediated diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of this study was to assess differential expression of miRNA between uninfected and infected mice with Clostridium difficile strain VPI 10463 RESULTS: MicroRNA (miR...

MetabolomicsParabacteroides distasonis alleviates Clostridioides difficile infection by reshaping bile acid metabolism and the gut microbiota

The aim of this study was to establish a mouse model of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) and to investigate the effects of intervention with live Parabacteroides distasonis and its culture supernatant on the fecal bile acid pool using a targeted metabolomics approach. By...

TranscriptomicsTranscription profiling of Caco-2 cells and Clostridium difficile during infection
Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic spore-forming rod-shaped gram-positive bacterium that can infect both humans and animals. Most studies on the pathogenesis of C. difficile have focused on its toxins and their effect on the host cells. Recently, we utilized microarrays to identify conserved and ...

TranscriptomicsTemporal RNASeq of C. difficile cultured within synthetic multispecies biofilm relative to C. difficile monoculture biofilms.
This experiment was performed largely to capture the dynamic transcriptional changes occurring in C. difficile when cultured within a 9 species synthetic gut communal consortium over a 48 h time series when cultured as a biofilm in vitro.
