Background
- Bacteria that are particularly stimulated by excess iron
Microbiology
- Bacteria
- Gram-positive
- Gram-negative
- Yersinia enterocolitica, in the context of iron chelation
- Aeromonas hydrophilia
- Escherichia coli
- Vibrio vulnificus
- Others: Acinetobacter, Alciligenes, Capnocytophaga canimorsus, Campylobacter, Chlamydia, Ehrlichia, Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Legionella, Moraxella, Neisseria, Pasteurella, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Plesiomonas, Shigella
- Viruses: hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, cytomegalovirus, parvovirus B19, HIV
- Fungi
- Mucorales (particularly Rhizopus)
- Others: Candida, Cryptococcus, Histoplasma, Paracoccidioides, Trichosporon, Aspergillus, Pneumocystis jirovecii
- Protozoa: Entamoeba histolytica, Leishmania, Naegleria fowleri, Plasmodium, Toxoplasma, Trypanosoma
Pathophysiology
- Bacteria have a siderophore, that allows acquisition of iron from the environment
- Yersinia does not have a siderophore, but has receptors for iron-bound exogenous siderophores such as deferoxamine
