GH18 family glycoside hydrolase Chitinase A of Salmonella enhances virulence by facilitating invasion and modulating host immune responses

Kasturi Chandra et al.

Summary: This study reveals the important role of chitinase in Salmonella pathogenesis. It promotes intestinal epithelium remodeling and host system access. In phagocytes, chitinase-mediated upregulation of nitric oxide inhibits MHC-I bound antigen presentation and CD8(+) T cell proliferation. The absence of chitinase impairs bacterial adhesion and colonization. In the murine host, chitinase prevents immune activation and antimicrobial responses. In C. elegans, Salmonella chitinase promotes bacterial attachment to the intestinal epithelium and enhances pathogen colonization and persistence.

Loss of outer membrane protein A (OmpA) impairs the survival of Salmonella Typhimurium by inducing membrane damage in the presence of ceftazidime and meropenem

Atish Roy Chowdhury et al.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the role of four prominent outer membrane porins of S. Typhimurium, namely OmpA, OmpC, OmpD, and OmpF, in developing resistance against ceftazidime and meropenem. The results show that OmpA protects S. Typhimurium from two broad-spectrum beta-lactam antibiotics by maintaining the stability of the outer membrane.

Spatiotemporal evaporating droplet dynamics on fomites enhances long term bacterial pathogenesis

Sreeparna Majee et al.

Summary: The study combines various methods to investigate the drying process of bacterial droplets, demonstrating long-term pathogenesis of pathogens and providing a holistic approach to understand bacterial pattern formation and pathogenesis. Experimental results show that mechanical stress during the drying process reduces bacterial viability, but induces hyper-proliferation in macrophages, thereby increasing pathogenicity.

Salmonella Typhimurium and inflammation: a pathogen-centric affair

Jorge E. Galan

Summary: Microbial infections are controlled by host inflammatory responses initiated by innate immune receptors recognizing microbial products. The enteric pathogen Salmonella Typhimurium triggers inflammation in the intestinal tract using effector proteins without engaging innate immune receptors, while also employing other effectors to restrict the inflammatory response and preserve host homeostasis. The interaction between S. Typhimurium and its host represents a unique balance achieved through co-evolution, with mechanisms aimed at recovering host homeostasis after the inflammatory response.

An elegant nano-injection machinery for sabotaging the host: Role of Type III secretion system in virulence of different human and animal pathogenic bacteria

Dipasree Hajra et al.

Summary: Various Gram-negative bacteria possess a specialized membrane-bound protein secretion system known as the Type III secretion system (T3SS), which transports bacterial effector proteins into host cells to aid in pathogenesis. Studies have utilized various techniques to investigate the structure and function of T3SS and how different human pathogenic bacteria manipulate host systems to enhance virulence.
