However, the potential contribution of host phosphatases to chlamydial pathogenesis remains poorly understood.

Gain-of-function approaches revealed that PTP1B promotes inclusion development and increases the production of infectious elementary bodies, whereas loss-of-function by chemical inhibition or silencing leads to a reduction in both inclusion size and bacterial infectivity. Interestingly, PTP1B inhibition did not affect\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Chlamydia trachomatis<\/jats:italic>\n                      invasion efficiency, suggesting a specific role during the developmental phase of the chlamydial life cycle. To explore the functional relevance of PTP1B and its potential interaction with chlamydial effectors, we focused on the early-secreted effector Tarp, which undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation upon host cell entry.\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">In vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                      biochemical assays demonstrated that recombinant PTP1B can dephosphorylate both native and recombinant forms of Tarp. However, PTP1B inhibition during infection did not significantly alter Tarp phosphorylation levels, possibly owing to the overpowering influence of host tyrosine kinases. These findings suggest that while Tarp may not be a major physiological substrate, PTP1B is capable of interacting with phosphorylated chlamydial effectors. Together, these results establish PTP1B as a host factor that supports chlamydial development and underscore the underappreciated role of host phosphatases in bacterial pathogenesis. This study provides a foundation for future work exploring phosphatase-mediated regulation of infection and potential host-directed therapeutic strategies.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1128\/iai.00373-25","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,20]],"date-time":"2025-10-20T17:21:51Z","timestamp":1760980911000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B is a positive regulator of the intracellular development of\n                    <i>Chlamydia trachomatis<\/i>"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"93","author":[{"given":"M.
