Exploiting induced pluripotent stem cell-derived macrophages to unravel host factors influencing Chlamydia trachomatis pathogenesis
In vitro models to study the role of host genetics in the response to chlamydial infection are limited. Here, Yeung et al. show that macrophages derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (which can be genetically manipulated) support chlamydial infection and can be used for this purpose.
