The central hypothesis of the Dalebroux lab is that Bacteroides outer membrane vessels (OMVs) directly and indirectly contribute to protection against Clostridiodes difficile (Cdif) infection within the human intestine. We predict that Bacteroides respond to environmental signals and the presence of Cdif by deploying OMVs that carry contents which antagonize Cdif toxin production and growth, while promoting beneficial immune responses that prevent Cdif expansion. Here, we employ techniques in bacteriology, biochemistry, molecular biology, eukaryotic cell culture and genetics to define the environmental signals that cue specific OMV production by Bacteroides and discern bacterial molecules within these OMVs that influence gut homeostasis and dysbiosis during health and disease as it relates to Cdif infection.
