Nectin-3 and shed forms of CSPG4 can serve as epithelial cell receptors for Clostridioides difficile TcdB
Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive bacterium that can cause mild to severe diarrhea, inflammation, and colonic tissue damage in animal hosts. Symptoms of the disease can be attributed to the activity of toxin B (TcdB) secreted by C. difficile during infection. TcdB can engage multiple host...
