Abstract excerpt
Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (SE) infection of chickens is a major contributing factor to non-typhoidal salmonellosis. The roles of the type-three secretion systems (T3SS-1 and T3SS-2) in the pathogenesis of SE infection of chickens are poorly understood. In this study, the functions of T3SS-1 and T3SS-2 during SE infection of primary chicken oviduct epithelial cells (COEC) and macrophages were...
