    • Infection and Immunity
    • Mutations in E-regulated lipoproteins have previously been shown to impact bacterial viability under conditions of stress and during in vivo infection. YraP is conserved across a number of Gram-negative pathogens, including Neisseria meningitidis, where the homolog is a component of the Bexsero meningococcal group B vaccine.

  7. Whole-Genome Sequencing and Bioinformatic Analysis of Isolates from Foodborne Illness Outbreaks of Campylobacter jejuni and Salmonella enterica [Bacteriology]

    • Journal of Clinical Microbiology
    • Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) via next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies is a powerful tool for determining the relatedness of bacterial isolates in foodborne illness detection and outbreak investigations. WGS has been applied to national outbreaks (for example, Listeria monocytogenes); however, WGS has rarely been used in smaller local outbreaks.

  8. Evidence from mutational analysis for a single transmembrane substrate binding site in the histidine ATP-binding cassette transporter of Salmonella enterica serovar

    • Journal of Bacteriology
    • The histidine ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is among the best-studied type I ABC import systems. The transporter consists of two transmembrane subunits, HisQ and HisM, and a homodimer of the nucleotide-binding subunit, HisP. Substrates are delivered by two periplasmic solute binding proteins, HisJ and LAO, with preferences for histidine and lysine, arginine, ornithine, respectively.

  9. High-Resolution Identification of Multiple Salmonella Serovars in a Single Sample by Using CRISPR-SeroSeq [Food Microbiology]

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology
    • Salmonella enterica is represented by >2,600 serovars that can differ in routes of transmission, host colonization, and in resistance to antimicrobials. S. enterica is the leading bacterial cause of foodborne illness in the United States, with well-established detection methodology. Current surveillance protocols rely on the characterization of a few colonies to represent an entire sample; thus, minority serovars remain undetected.

    • Poultry Science
    • ABSTRACTThis study was conducted to find the effect of different feed additives on the production performance and intestinal histology in Salmonella challenged birds. A total of 600 day-old-broiler chicks (Ross 308) were assignment to 10 treatments. Each treatment was further divided into 10 replicates.

  12. Interleukin-22 promotes phagolysosomal fusion to induce protection against Salmonella enterica Typhimurium in human epithelial cells [Microbiology]

    • Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
    • Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) play a key role in regulating immune responses and controlling infection. However, the direct role of IECs in restricting pathogens remains incompletely understood. Here, we provide evidence that IL-22 primed intestinal organoids derived from healthy human induced pluripotent stem cells (hIPSCs) to restrict Salmonella enterica serovar...

  13. Effect of probiotics on fecal excretion, colonization in internal organs and immune gene expression in the ileum of laying hens challenged with Salmonella Enteritidis

    • Poultry Science
    • ABSTRACTA study was conducted to evaluate the supplementation of probiotics on Salmonella colonization in the ceca and various internal organs as well as immune response in laying hens challenged with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (SE). Thirty-two 46-wk-old White Leghorns (W-36) were housed individually in wired laying cages under 16L:8D lighting schedule.

  18. Differential Immune Phenotypes in Human Monocytes Induced by Non-Host-Adapted Salmonella enterica Serovar Choleraesuis and Host-Adapted S. Typhimurium [Host Response and Inflammation]

    • Infection and Immunity
    • We studied the effects of two Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (host-adapted) strains (14028 and 4/74) and three S. Choleraesuis (non-host-adapted) strains (A50, A45, and B195) in human monocytes between 2 and 24 h postinfection (p.i.) to investigate whether differences in immune response may explain the much higher prevalence of sepsis in individuals infected with S. Choleraesuis.

  21. Characteristics of cephalosporin-resistant Salmonella isolates from poultry in Korea, 2010–2017

    • Poultry Science
    • ABSTRACTCephalosporins are the key drugs for the treatment of salmonellosis. Resistance to cephalosporins in Salmonella spp. has become a serious public health concern worldwide. Although the sales of cephalosporins have increased by five times from 2008 to 2016 in Korea, limited information is available on cephalosporin resistance in Korea.

  22. Alterations of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Antibiotic Resistance under Environmental Pressure [Public and Environmental Health Microbiology]

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology
    • Microbial horizontal gene transfer is a continuous process that shapes bacterial genomic adaptation to the environment and the composition of concurrent microbial ecology. This includes the potential impact of synthetic antibiotic utilization in farm animal production on overall antibiotic resistance issues; however, the mechanisms behind the evolution of microbial communities are not fully understood.

  23. Genotoxic, metabolic, and oxidative stresses regulate the RNA repair operon of Salmonella

    • Journal of Bacteriology
    • The 54 regulon in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium includes a predicted RNA repair operon, encoding homologs of the metazoan Ro60 protein (Rsr), Y RNAs (YrlBA), RNA ligase (RtcB), and RNA 3'-phosphate cyclase (RtcA). Transcription from 54-dependent promoters requires that a cognate bacterial enhancer binding protein (bEBP) be activated by a specific environmental or cellular signal; the cognate bEBP for the 54-dependent promoter of the rsr-yrlBA-rtcBA operon is RtcR.
