Glycine fermentation by C. difficile promotes virulence and spore formation, and is induced by host cathelicidin | Infection and Immunity
Clostridioides difficile is an anaerobic, Gram-positive, spore-forming gastrointestinal pathogen that causes severe diarrheal disease which can lead to death (1). To cause disease, C. difficile spores must be ingested and germinate in the intestine upon exposure to bile salts and glycine (2). Upon the outgrowth of spores into vegetative cells, C. difficile colonizes the colon, using the available nutrients to replicate within the host. As the population increases and nutrients become scarce, C. difficile produces toxins (TcdA and TcdB), releasing additional nutrients and further altering the metabolic environment (3). In turn, host inflammation is induced, resulting in the release of immune effectors and the characteristic pathologies associated with C. difficile infections (4).
