The microbiota mediates pathogen clearance from the gut lumen after non-typhoidal Salmonella diarrhea.

The microbiota mediates pathogen clearance from the gut lumen after non-typhoidal Salmonella diarrhea.

Many enteropathogenic bacteria target the mammalian gut. The mechanisms protecting the host from infection are poorly understood. We have studied the protective functions of secretory antibodies (sIgA) and the microbiota, using a mouse model for S. typhimurium diarrhea. This pathogen is a common cau...
