Contact dependent suppression of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> sporulation by enterococci requires the endocarditis and biofilm associated pilus

2026-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Clostridioides difficile is a healthcare-associated infection that arises when broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment disrupts the gut microbiota and is transmitted by highly resistant spores. Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) is an opportunistic pathogen frequently co-isolated from C. difficile patients. We found that C. difficile sporulation is significantly reduced in VRE- C. difficile co-culture...
