Redistribution of the novel C. difficile spore-adherence receptor, E-cadherin, by TcdA and TcdB increases spore-binding to adherens junctions.

P. Castro-Cordova, M. Otto-Medina, N. Montes-Bravo, C. Brito-Silva, B. Lacy, D. Paredes-Sabja

This study shows C. difficile spores bind to E-cadherin on intestinal epithelial cells, and toxins TcdA/TcdB increase spore adherence by disrupting adherens junctions.
