Rethinking our understanding of the pathogenesis of necrotic enteritis in chickens [PDF]
, 2009 For decades, low doses of antibiotics have been used widely in animal production to promote growth. However, there is a trend to reduce this use of antibiotics in feedstuffs, and legislation is now in place in Europe to prohibit their use in this way. As

Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin in antibiotic-associated diarrhea
Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2008 Clostridium perfringens type A is associated with 5-20% cases of antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) even though Clostridium difficile is implicated in the most severe cases. Fecal specimens from one hundred hospitalized patients, who developed diarrhea regardless of antibiotic intake and who were negative for C.

Crystal structure and structure-based mutagenesis of actin-specific ADP-ribosylating toxin CPILE-a as novel enterotoxin. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Unusual outbreaks of food poisoning in Japan were reported in which Clostridium perfringens was strongly suspected to be the cause based on epidemiological information and fingerprinting of isolates. The isolated strains lack the typical C.

Vaccines Using Clostridium perfringens Sporulation Proteins Reduce Necrotic Enteritis in Chickens
Microorganisms, 2022 Clostridium perfringens is the prevalent enteric pathogen in humans and animals including chickens, and it remains largely elusive on the mechanism of C. perfringens-induced enteritis because of limited animal models available.
