Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile

Saudi Medical Journal, 2023
Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) infection is still a threat to many healthcare settings worldwide. Clostridioides difficile epidemiology has changed over the last 20 years, largely due to the emergence of hypervirulent and antimicrobial-resistant C. difficile strains.

The Oral‐Gut Axis: Bidirectional Interactions Between Microbiome and Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This study aims to summarize the mechanisms underlying ectopic colonization of the gut by oral pathobionts and the microbial and host factors that regulate this process. ABSTRACT Increased colonization of typically oral microorganisms is frequently observed in the gut mucosa or lumen of individuals with gastrointestinal disorders, including patients ...

Periodontitis and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review aims to provide a conceptual framework for understanding the mechanistic interplay between periodontitis and IBD, with a particular emphasis on the microbial and immunological crosstalk linking the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract.

Clinical benefit of faecal microbiota transplantation administered via a single retention enema as an adjunctive treatment in dogs with chronic enteropathy: a randomised controlled trial

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To evaluate the clinical benefit of faecal microbiota transplantation administered via a single retention enema, as an adjunctive treatment in the management of dogs with chronic enteropathy. Materials and Methods Blinded, randomised controlled trial.

Naturally Occurring CodY Variants Alter Ligand Binding, DNA Target Affinity, and Virulence in Clostridioides difficile

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Single amino acid substitutions in the global regulator CodY can alter nutrient sensing and virulence regulation in Clostridioides difficile. We show that the CodY(Y146N) and CodY(V58A) variants display altered ligand binding and reduced promoter binding, leading to derepression of toxin regulatory pathways and increased virulence in vivo.

Whole genome sequence analysis reveals limited diversity among Clostridioides difficile ribotype 027 and 078 isolates collected in 22 hospitals in Berlin and Brandenburg, Germany

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control
Background Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI) present significant health risks and are among the most important nosocomial infections. Ribotype (RT) 027 poses a particular risk due to its proposed “hypervirulence”. Traditionally, C.

Elucidating human gut microbiota interactions that robustly inhibit diverse Clostridioides difficile strains across different nutrient landscapes

Nature Communications
The human gut pathogen Clostridioides difficile displays substantial inter-strain genetic variability and confronts a changeable nutrient landscape in the gut. We examined how human gut microbiota inter-species interactions influence the growth and toxin

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.
