Staphylococcus aureus induces an itaconate-dominated immunometabolic response that drives biofilm formation

The authors show that the pathogen Staphylococcus aureus induces a distinct airway immunometabolic response, dominated by release of itaconate. This metabolite, in turn, potentiates extracellular polysaccharide synthesis and biofilm formation in S. aureus, which may facilitate chronic infection.
