Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is specifically expressed in the liver and has crucial effects on various liver diseases. The functions and mechanisms underlying of PON1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain obscure. Here, we show that PON1 acts as a metabolic regulator to mitigate regulatory T (Treg) ce...
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) expand during Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection and suppress T cell mediated control. Whether Mtb actively contributes to this process is unclear. Here, using a genome-wide mutant library, we show that expression of Mtb Rv1272c, an ATP-binding cassette transpor...
Salmonella Typhimurium establishes systemic infection by replicating in host macrophages. Here we show that macrophages infected with S. Typhimurium exhibit upregulated glycolysis and decreased serine synthesis, leading to accumulation of glycolytic intermediates. The effects on...
