Changes in intracellular cholesterol content influenced bactericidal capacity of macrophage. Subsequently, it was proven by gene set enrichment analysis and qPCR, that ApoE played a key role in developing cholesterol metabolism disorder in\n                      <jats:italic>S. aureus<\/jats:italic>\n                      osteomyelitis.
