ABSTRACT
In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, publications from Bushman et al. (2020) and Knippel et al. (2020) outline elements of host epithelial damage or inflammation that Clostridioides difficile subverts, enabling continued growth. These mechanisms provide insight into how this important pathogen influences the gut environment to promote its metabolic strategy during infection.
