Infection with Mycobacterium avium Differentially Regulates the Expression of Iron Transport Protein mRNA in Murine Peritoneal Macrophages

Iron is an important element for the growth of microorganisms as well as in the defense of the host by serving as a catalyst for the generation of free radicals via the Fenton/Haber-Weiss reactions. The iron transporter natural resistance-associated macrophage protein 1 (Nramp1) confers resistance t...
