A Role for the Non-canonical Wnt-β-Catenin and TGF-β Signaling Pathways in the Induction of Tolerance During the Establishment of a Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis Persistent Cecal Infection in Chickens

Non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica induce an early pro-inflammatory response in chickens. However, the response is short-lived, asymptomatic of disease, resulting in a persistent colonization of the ceca, and fecal shedding of bacteria.
