Respiration of Microbiota-Derived 1,2-propanediol Drives Salmonella Expansion during Colitis.

Respiration of Microbiota-Derived 1,2-propanediol Drives Salmonella Expansion during Colitis.

Intestinal inflammation caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium increases the availability of electron acceptors that fuel a respiratory growth of the pathogen in the intestinal lumen. Here we show that one of the carbon sources driving this respiratory expansion in the mouse model is 1,2-...
