CHOP-led Study Shows that Antibiotic-Resistant Microbes in the Gut Make C. difficile More Infectious

Wednesday, November 16, 2022

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Clostridioides difficile, often referred to as C. difficile or C. diff, is a bacterium that causes severe intestinal illness and, as its name suggests, can be difficult to study and treat. Approximately 1 in 6 patients infected with C. difficile will be reinfected within two months. Yet scientists have not figured out why C. difficile infection is more difficult to treat in some patients versus others. The human gut is filled with trillions of microbes, and these microbes influence the virulence of various pathogens, but until now, scientists had little understanding of how C. difficile cooperates with the rich collection of microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract.

Key Points: 
  • Yet scientists have not figured out why C. difficile infection is more difficult to treat in some patients versus others.
  • Prior studies have shown that adults infected with C. difficile also have high levels of Enterococcus in their gut and that vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) frequently co-infects patients with C. difficile.
  • They also observed a positive correlation between C. difficile burdens and ornithine, supporting a key role for this amino acid in C. difficile infection.
