Core Tip |
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an excellent treatment option of pseudomembranous colitis due to Clostridiodes difficile infection (CDI) because of its remarkable effectiveness. Moreover, FMT is a promising therapy for several other disorders in which dysbiosis is an important pathological factor. The mechanisms of FMT have begun to be dissected and include the restoration of the commensal microbial community structure and the modulation of several components of the immune system. This minireview focus on the FMT immune-related mechanisms for CDI. |
