Clostridioides difficile is a common healthcare associated pathogen in U.S. hospitals, incurring billions of dollars in treatment costs each year. Microbiome analysis of C. difficile infected (CDI) patients have revealed alterations of the gut microbiota. It has been speculated that select members of this altered microbiota may influence C. difficile pathogenesis. C. difficile is known to reside in the intestinal mucus layer, but at present the interactions between C. difficile and other mucus-associated bacteria are poorly defined.
