Gut metabolite L-lactate supports <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> population expansion during acute infection
2023-10-02
Abstract excerpt
How the microaerobic pathogen Campylobacter jejuni establishes its niche and expands in the gut lumen during infection is poorly understood. Using six-week-old ferrets as a natural disease model, we examined this aspect of C. jejuni pathogenicity. Unlike mice, which require significant genetic or physiological manipulation to become colonized with C. jejuni , ferrets are readily infected without the need to dis...
