Limitation of TCA Cycle Intermediates Represents an Oxygen-Independent Nutritional Antibacterial Effector Mechanism of Macrophages

Summary: In hypoxic and inflamed tissues, oxygen (O2)-dependent antimicrobial defenses are impaired due to a shortage of O2. To gain insight into the mechanisms that control bacterial infection under hypoxic conditions, we infected macrophages with the obligate intracellular pathogen Coxiella burnet...
