Microbial Pathogenesis: New Niches for Salmonella
نویسندگان
چکیده
Salmonella occupies a vacuolar compartment inside cells of its host. Recent studies have shown that the fate of this vacuole is different in various cell types, and that the outcome of colonization is determined by both the infecting bacterium and defense mechanisms of the host cell.

The Pyromaniac Inside You: Salmonella Metabolism in the Host Gut.
A metabolically diverse microbial community occupies all available nutrient-niches in the lumen of the mammalian intestine, making it difficult for pathogens to establish themselves in this highly competitive environment. Salmonella serovars sidestep the competition by using their virulence factors to coerce the host into creating a novel nutrient-niche. Inflammation-derived nutrients available...

Microbial evolution and subsequent species diversification enable bacterial organisms to perform common biological processes by a variety of means. The epsilonproteobacteria are a diverse class of prokaryotes that thrive in diverse habitats. Many of these environmental niches are labeled as extreme, whereas other niches include various sites within human, animal, and insect hosts. Some epsilonp...
