Altering lipid droplet homeostasis affects <i>Coxiella burnetii</i> intracellular growth
2017-03-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen and a causative agent of culture-negative endocarditis. While C. burnetii initially infects alveolar macrophages, it has also been found in lipid droplet (LD)-containing foamy macrophages in the cardiac valves of endocarditis patients. In addition, transcriptional studies of C. burnetii -infected macrophages reported differentia...
