Description Erysipelatoclostridium ramosum is an obligately anaerobic, Gram positive, non-motile, spore-forming bacterium that is among the gut flora of humans. In general, Erysipelatoclostridium ramosum does not cause disease, but may cause an infection. Infection can occur in both young children and older or immune-suppressed individuals.

Disease Relevance
          Inflammatory bowel disease  [ICD-11: DD72]
             Description IgA protease-positive Clostridium ramosum didn't play a role in the induction of inflammatory bowel disease., unless the organism was first isolated from the patient with inflammatory bowel disease. [1]
Host Genetic Factors (HGFs)
          C4B
             HGF ID HGF2348 HGF Info       Class Copy Number Variation: Gene Duplication (CNV-GDu)
             Description The low C4B-CN has been significantly associated with the abundance of Clostridium ramosum (p-value<0.05). [2]
          rs1042714
             HGF ID HGF1935 HGF Info       Class Single Nucleotide Polymorphism: Stop gained (SNP-SG)
             Description The variant gene ADR2 of innate immunity rs1042714 is significantly associated with the abundance of gut micriobiota Clostridium ramosum (p-value=0.0239). [3]
Host Immune Factors (HIFs)
          Neutrophils
             HIF ID HIFC0029 HIF Info       Class Granulocytes (Gra)
             Description Erysipelatoclostridium ramosum at neutrophil recovery was negatively correlated with subsequent acute severe graft-versus-host disease. [4]
          Immunoglobulin A
             HIF ID HIFM0272 HIF Info       Class Immunoglobulin (Ig)
             Description Clostridium ramosum is negatively associated with IgA. [5]
          RORt+ regulatory T cells
             HIF ID HIFC0038 HIF Info       Class T cells (TCs)
             Description Colonization with Clostridium ramosum (cluster XVIII) has been shown to induce an increase of RORt+ Treg cells. [6]
          RORt+FOXP3+CD4+ regulatory T cells
             HIF ID HIFC0193 HIF Info       Class T cells (TCs)
             Description Clostridium ramosum is related to the accumulation of RORt+FOXP3+CD4+ Treg cells in the colon. [6]
