A zero-sum game or an interactive frame? Iron competition between bacteria and humans in infection war

13 Jul 2022

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT: Iron is an essential trace element for both humans and bacteria. It plays a vital role in life, such as in redox reactions and electron transport. Strict regulatory mechanisms are necessary to maintain iron homeostasis because both excess and insufficient iron are harmful to life. Competition for iron is a war between humans and bacteria. To grow, reproduce, colonize, and successfully cause infection,...
