Growth of Chlamydia pneumoniae Is Enhanced in Cells with Impaired Mitochondrial Function

Effective growth and replication of obligate intracellular pathogens depend on host cell metabolism. How this is connected to host cell mitochondrial function has not been studied so far. Recent studies suggest that growth of intracellular bacteria such as Chlamydia pneumoniae is enhanced in a low o...
