Microb Pathog 2022; 171:105744. [PMID: 36049651 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2022.105744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Revised: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
Type III secretion system 1 (T3SS1) encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) is associated with invasion of host cells by Salmonella, PrgH encoded by prgH gene is an important component of T3SS1. This study aimed to explore the contribution of prgH gene for Salmonella Pullorum to virulence and the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1 and IL-1β in chickens. A prgH gene deletion mutant (C79-13ΔprgH) was firstly generated, and the result of LD50 showed that deletion of prgH significantly decreased the virulence of Salmonella Pullorum in one-day-old HY-line white chickens, and the colonization also decreased in chickens after loss of prgH. Next, the expressions of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1β were detected in acute infection model of chickens by qRT-PCR and/or ELISA, respectively, and the results showed that the mutant strain C79-13ΔprgH reduced the expression levels of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1β in chickens compared to the group infected with the wild type strain C79-13. Taken together, all of these findings indicated that prgH promotes the virulence and the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1β for Salmonella Pullorum in chickens.

Abstract
Sallmonella Pullorum is a host-restricted pathogen for poultry and causes severe economic importance in many developing countries. The development of novel vaccines for Salmonella Pullorum is necessary to eradicate the prevalence of the pathogen. In our study, a srfA deletion mutant (C79-13ΔsrfA) of Salmonella Pullorum was constructed, and then the biological characteristics and protective efficacy of the mutant were evaluated. The mutant C79-13ΔsrfA was much less virulent than its parental strain C79-13 in one-day-old HY-line white chickens, immunization with C79-13ΔsrfA (4 × 107 CFU) through oral pathway induced highly specific humoral and cellular immune responses, the growth performance of vaccinated chickens was consistent with that of unvaccinated chickens. The survival percentages of vaccinated chickens reached 90% and 80%, after challenge with Salmonella Pullorum strain C79-13 and Salmonella Gallinarum strain SG9 at 10 days post-immunization (dpi), respectively. Collectively, our results indicate that C79-13ΔsrfA is a live attenuated vaccine candidate.

Abstract
Bacterial secretory systems are essential for virulence in human pathogens. The systems have become a target of alternative antibacterial strategies based on small molecules and antibodies. Strategies to use components of the systems to design prophylactics have been less publicized despite vaccines being the preferred solution to dealing with bacterial infections. In the current review, strategies to design vaccines against selected pathogens are presented and connected to the biology of the system. The examples are given for Y. pestis, S. enterica, B. anthracis, S. flexneri, and other human pathogens, and discussed in terms of effectiveness and long-term protection.

Abstract
While conjugate vaccines against typhoid fever have recently been recommended by the World Health Organization for deployment, the lack of a vaccine against paratyphoid, multidrug resistance and chronic carriage all present challenges for the elimination of enteric fever. In the past decade, the development of in vitro and human challenge models has resulted in major advances in our understanding of enteric fever pathogenesis. In this review, we summarise these advances, outlining mechanisms of host restriction, intestinal invasion, interactions with innate immunity and chronic carriage, and discuss how this knowledge may progress future vaccines and antimicrobials.

Abstract
Background Salmonella Paratyphi A causes paratyphoid A, a severe systemic disease of people and remains a major public health problem in many parts of the world. In the interest of researching the roles of sptP on Salmonella Paratyphi A and developing a live‐attenuated vaccine candidate, an sptP mutant of Salmonella Paratyphi A SPA017 (SPA017ΔsptP) was constructed, and then its characterization, immunogenicity, and protective ability were evaluated. Results The deletion of sptP had no effect on growth and biochemical properties. Adhesion and invasion assays showed that the lack of sptP did not affect the adhesion of Salmonella Paratyphi A, but the invasive ability of the mutant strain was significantly decreased, the half‐lethal dose (LD50) of the mutant strain was 1.43 × 104 times of the parent strain in intraperitoneally injected mice. Single intraperitoneal vaccination with SPA017ΔsptP (1 × 105 CFU) in mice did not affect the body weight or elicit clinical symptoms relative to the control group, SPA017ΔsptP bacteria were isolated from livers and spleens of vaccinated mice at 14 days postvaccination. Notably, specific humoral and cellular immune responses were significantly induced. The protective assessment showed that the mutant strain could provide high‐level protection against subsequent challenge with the wild‐type SPA017 strain. Conclusions These results demonstrated that SptP plays an essential role in the pathogenicity of Salmonella Paratyphi A, and Salmonella Paratyphi A lacking sptP is immunogenic and protective in mice.
