Abstract During intestinal inflammation, host nutritional immunity starves microbes of essential micronutrients such as iron. Pathogens scavenge iron using siderophores, which is counteracted by the lipocalin-2, a protein that sequesters iron-laden including enterobactin. Although and pathogens compete for in presence gut commensal bacteria, roles commensals involving remain unexplored. Here, we report Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron acquires inflamed utilizing siderophores produced other...
