Journal Article
Monaghan, T. M., Seekatz, A. M., Mullish, B. H., Moore-Gillon, C. E., Dawson, L., Ahmed, A., …Chan, W. C. (2021). Clostridioides difficile: innovations in target discovery and potential for therapeutic success. Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 25(11), 949-963. https://doi.org/10.1080/14728222.2021.2008907

Introduction: Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) remains a worldwide clinical problem. Increased incidence of primary infection, occurrence of hypertoxigenic ribotypes, and more frequent occurrence of drug resistant, recurrent, and non-hospital...

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on prevalence of Clostridioides difficile infection in a UK tertiary centre (2021)
Journal Article
Voona, S., Abdic, H., Montgomery, R., Clarkson, A., Twitchell, H., Hills, T., …Monaghan, T. M. (2022). Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on prevalence of Clostridioides difficile infection in a UK tertiary centre. Anaerobe, 73, Article 102479. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.anaerobe.2021.102479

Serious concerns have been raised about a possible increase in cases of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted a retrospective observational single centre study which revealed that total combined community...

A Multi-Factorial Observational Study on Sequential Fecal Microbiota Transplant in Patients with Medically Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection (2021)
Journal Article
Monaghan, T. M., Duggal, N. A., Rosati, E., Griffin, R., Hughes, J., Roach, B., …Kao, D. H. (2021). A Multi-Factorial Observational Study on Sequential Fecal Microbiota Transplant in Patients with Medically Refractory Clostridioides difficile Infection. Cells, 10(11), Article 3234. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells10113234

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is highly effective in recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI); increasing evidence supports FMT in severe or fulminant Clostridioides difficile infection (SFCDI). However, the multifactorial mechanis...

Journal Article
Chidambaram, S. B., Essa, M. M., Rathipriya, A., Bishir, M., Ray, B., Mahalakshmi, A. M., …Monaghan, T. M. (2022). Gut dysbiosis, defective autophagy and altered immune responses in neurodegenerative diseases: Tales of a vicious cycle. Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 231, Article 107988. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pharmthera.2021.107988

The human microbiota comprises trillions of symbiotic microorganisms and is involved in regulating gastrointestinal (GI), immune, nervous system and metabolic homeostasis. Recent observations suggest a bidirectional communication between the gut micr...

Multiomics Profiling Reveals Signatures of Dysmetabolism in Urban Populations in Central India (2021)
Journal Article
Monaghan, T. M., Biswas, R. N., Nashine, R. R., Joshi, S. S., Mullish, B. H., Seekatz, A. M., …Kashyap, R. S. (2021). Multiomics Profiling Reveals Signatures of Dysmetabolism in Urban Populations in Central India. Microorganisms, 9(7), Article 1485. https://doi.org/10.3390/microorganisms9071485

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have become a major cause of morbidity and mortality in India. Perturbation of host–microbiome interactions may be a key mechanism by which lifestyle-related risk factors such as tobacco use, alcohol consu...

Journal Article
Monaghan, T. M., Seekatz, A. M., Markham, N. O., On Yau, T., Hatziapostolou, M., Jilani, T., …Polytarchou, C. (2021). Fecal microbiota transplantation for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection associates with functional alterations in circulating microRNAs. Gastroenterology, 161(1), 255-270.e4. https://doi.org/10.1053/j.gastro.2021.03.050

Background and aims
The molecular mechanisms underlying successful fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI) remain poorly understood. The primary objective of this study was to characterize alter...
