Leishmania donovani depletes labile iron pool to exploit iron uptake capacity of macrophage for its intracellular growth
Intracellular pathogens employ several strategies for iron acquisition from host macrophages for survival and growth, whereas macrophage resists infection by actively sequestering iron. Here, we show that instead of allowing macrophage to sequester iron, protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani (LD) u...
