Targeting catecholate siderophore systems enables precision depletion of gut enterobacteria during colitis

Adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) is frequently isolated from the dysbiotic gut microbiome in inflammatory bowel disease and is implicated in disease progression, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target. Here we show that iron acquisition is essential for AIEC colonization of the inflamed gut. Mechan...
