Abstract excerpt
Salmonella enterica is a globally disseminated pathogen that is the cause of over 100 million infections per year. The resulting diseases are dependent upon host susceptibility and the infecting serovar. As S. enterica serovar Typhimurium induces a typhoid-like disease in mice, this model has been used extensively to illuminate various aspects of Salmonella infection and host responses. Due to the severity of...
