An alloy of zinc and innate immunity: Galvanising host defence against infection

Jessica B. von Pein et al.

Summary: Innate immune cells play a crucial role in delivering toxic concentrations of zinc to pathogens as an antimicrobial response. Excess zinc can be cytotoxic, and the involvement of specific zinc transporters in this process is also highlighted. Key unanswered questions in this field may provide new opportunities for anti-infective development.

Cellular Management of Zinc in Group B Streptococcus Supports Bacterial Resistance against Metal Intoxication and Promotes Disseminated Infection

Matthew J. Sullivan et al.

Summary: The study reveals that Streptococcus agalactiae responds to zinc stress by regulating czcD through sczA, as well as utilizing arginine deamination mechanism mediated by arcA to survive metal intoxication. These systems not only help the bacteria survive zinc stress in vitro, but also enhance virulence during systemic infection in mice, suggesting potential applications in other bacteria facing metal stress in host environments.
