Gene expression analysis of Salmonella enterica SPI in macrophages indicates differences between serovars that induce systemic disease from those normally causing enteritis☆

چکیده
Global gene expression of the invasive Salmonella serovars S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium, and the less-invasive S. Infantis and S. Hadar was studied during infection of a chicken macrophage cell line. Major functional gene groups responsible for intracellular physiological changes were regulated similarly in all four serovars. However, SPI1 and SPI4 genes of S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium were strongly repressed in the macrophages whereas S. Infantis, S. Hadar and other similar serovars maintained up-regulation of these gene sets. This phenomenon may explain some of the biological differences between invasive and non-invasive Salmonella serovars.

SPI-1-encoded type III secretion system of Salmonella enterica is required for the suppression of porcine alveolar macrophage cytokine expression
Genes localized at Salmonella pathogenicity island-1 (SPI-1) are involved in Salmonella enterica invasion of host non-professional phagocytes. Interestingly, in macrophages, SPI-1-encoded proteins, in addition to invasion, induce cell death via activation of caspase-1 which also cleaves proIL-1β and proIL-18, precursors of 2 proinflammatory cytokines. In this study we were therefore interested ...
متن کاملIdentification of Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin-specific sequences by subtractive hybridization and analysis of their role in intestinal colonization and systemic translocation in cattle.
Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin is a host-restricted serovar associated with typhoidal disease in cattle. In contrast, the fowl-associated serovar S. enterica serovar Gallinarum is avirulent in calves, yet it invades ileal mucosa and induces enteritis at levels comparable to those induced by S. enterica serovar Dublin. Suppression subtractive hybridization was employed to identify S. enteric...
متن کاملPrevalence & phenotypic expression of sopB gene among clinical isolates of Salmonella enterica.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Salmonella induced enteritis is a complex phenomenon involving a number of pathogenic factors. Type III secretions play a central role in the development of Salmonella induced enteritis. One such Type III secretion protein is Salmonella outer proteinB (SopB). Reports on the prevalence of this gene among different serovars of Salmonella of Indian origin appears to be lacki...
متن کاملComparative phenotypic and genotypic virulence of Salmonella strains isolated from Australian layer farms
There are over 2500 Salmonella enterica serovars that circulate globally. Of these, serovars those classified into subspecies I are the most common cause of human salmonellosis. Many subspecies I Salmonella serovars are routinely isolated from egg farm environments but are not frequently associated with causing disease in humans. In this study, virulence profiles were generated for 10 strains o...
متن کاملProteolytic targeting of Rab29 by an effector protein distinguishes the intracellular compartments of human-adapted and broad-host Salmonella.
Unlike broad-host Salmonella serovars, which cause self-limiting disease, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi can infect only humans causing typhoid fever, a life-threatening systemic disease. The molecular bases for these differences are presently unknown. Here we show that the GTPase Rab29 (Rab7L1) distinguishes the intracellular vacuole of human-adapted and broad-host Salmonella serovars. A sc...
