DLD and osteomyelitis: 1. In osteomyelitis samples, SLC31A1, DLD, and MTF1 expression was significantly upregulated, whereas GLS and DBT expression was significantly downregulated2. In the rat model of Staphylococcus aureus induced osteomyelitis, the mRNA and protein expression levels of SLC31A1, DLD and MTF1 were significantly upregulated, which was consistent with the bioinformatics results
