IL-33 protects from recurrent <i>C. difficile</i> infection by restoration of humoral immunity
2024-11-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) recurs in one of five patients. Monoclonal antibodies targeting the virulence factor TcdB reduce disease recurrence, suggesting that an inadequate anti-TcdB response to CDI leads to recurrence. In patients with CDI, we discovered that IL-33 measured at diagnosis predicts future recurrence, leading us to test the role of IL-33 signaling in the induction of...
