Mycobacterium tuberculosis multiplies within the macrophage phagosome and requires iron for growth. We examined the route(s) by which intracellular M. tuberculosis acquires iron. During intracellular growth of the virulent Erdman M. tuberculosis strain in human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM), M. tuberculosis acquisition of Fe-59 from transferrin (TF) provided extracellularly (exogenous source) was compared with acquisition when MDM were loaded with Fe-59 from TF prior to M. tuberculosis infection (endogenous sources). M. tuberculosis Fe-59 acquisition required viable bacteria and was similar from exogenous and endogenous sources at 24 h and greater from exogenous iron at 48 h. Interferon-gamma treatment of MDM reduced Fe-59 uptake from TF 51% and TF receptor expression by 34%. Despite this, intraphagosomal M. tuberculosis iron acquisition in IFN-gamma-treated cells was decreased by only 30%. Macrophages from hereditary hemochromatosis patients have altered iron metabolism. Intracellular M. tuberculosis acquired markedly less iron in MDM from these individuals than in MDM from healthy donors, regardless of the iron source (exogenous and endogenous): 36 +/- 3.8% and 17 +/- 9.6% of control, respectively. Thus, intraphagosomal M. tuberculosis can acquire iron from both extracellular TF and endogenous macrophage sources. Acquisition of iron from macrophage cytoplasmic iron pools may be critical for the intracellular growth of M. tuberculosis. This acquisition is altered by IFN-gamma treatment to a small extent, but is markedly reduced in macrophages from hemochromatosis patients.
