Osmolarity and growth phase overlap in regulation of Salmonella typhi adherence to and invasion of human intestinal cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The study of the effects of osmolarity and growth phase on Salmonella typhi adherence to and invasion of Henle 407 epithelial cells provides the first evidence of a clear overlap between these two environmental stimuli. High-osmolarity conditions are required in the late-log phase for optimum induction of the adherent and invasive phenotypes.

Environmental regulation of Salmonella typhi invasion-defective mutants.
Salmonella typhi is the etiologic agent of human typhoid. During infection, S. typhi adheres to and invades epithelial and M cells that line the distal ileum. To survive in the human host, S. typhi must overcome numerous complex extracellular and intracellular environments. Since relatively little is known about S. typhi pathogenesis, studies were initiated to identify S. typhi genes involved i...
متن کاملThe ompB operon partially determines differential expression of OmpC in Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli.
Expression of the Escherichia coli OmpC and OmpF outer membrane proteins is regulated by the osmolarity of the culture media. In contrast, expression of OmpC in Salmonella typhi is not influenced by osmolarity, while OmpF is regulated as in E. coli. To better understand the lack of osmoregulation of OmpC expression in S. typhi, we compared the expression of the ompC gene in S. typhi and E. coli...

Objective(s):Typhoid fever is a dreadful disease of a major threat to public health in developing countries. Vaccination with bacterial immunodominant components such as surface proteins may prove as a potent alternative to live attenuated vaccines. InvH, an important part of needle complex in type three secretion system (TTSS) plays important role in efficient bacterial adherence and entry int...
متن کاملMOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF VI-CAPSULAR POLYSACCHARIDE OF SALMONELLA TYPHI TY6S PRODUCTION IN BIOREACTOR
The role of Vi-capsular polysaccharide (Vi-CPS) in human immunity against infection caused by Salmonella typhi is well known. The downstream process of purification generally causes depolymerization of Vi-CPS to a nonimmunogenic low molecular weight form. In the present study, a standard strain of Sal. typhi Ty6s was grown under submerge cultural conditions in a pilot-plant scale of 90 Liter fe...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of Escherichia coli porin genes in Salmonella typhi Ty2: regulation by medium osmolarity, temperature and oxygen availability.
Electrophoretic analysis of outer membrane proteins showed that Salmonella typhi OmpC expression is not reciprocally regulated relative to OmpF as described for Escherichia coli and S. typhimurium. When bacteria were grown in minimal media, both OmpC and OmpF were repressed as the osmolarity increased. However, in Luria broth, expression of OmpC was slightly induced by osmolarity up to 0.3 osmM...
