Differences in Host Cell Invasion and Salmonella Pathogenicity Island 1 Expression between Salmonella enterica Serovar Paratyphi A and Nontyphoidal <i>S</i> . Typhimurium

Abstract excerpt

Active invasion into nonphagocytic host cells is central to Salmonella enterica pathogenicity and dependent on multiple genes within Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1). Here, we explored the invasion phenotype and the expression of SPI-1 in the typhoidal serovarS Paratyphi A compared to that of the nontyphoidal serovarS Typhimurium. We demonstrate that while S. Typhimurium is equally invasive under both...
