Cholera toxin-induced disease generates epithelial cell-derived L-lactate that promotes <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> growth in the small intestine
2025-08-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Cholera toxin (CT) promotes Vibrio cholerae colonization by altering gut metabolism to favor pathogen growth. We have previously found that CT-induced disease leads to increased concentrations of L-lactate in the lumen of the small intestine during experimental cholera. Here, we show that CT-induced disease leads to the upregulation of mammalian lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), an enzyme that cat...
