The Bug Stops Here: Innate Lymphoid Cells in Clostridium difficile Infection
Abstract
The contribution of the innate immune response to the resolution of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) remains incompletely defined. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Abt et al. demonstrated that innate lymphoid cells and the effector cytokine IFN-γ are important for recovery from the acute phase of CDI.
