Journal ArticleDOI

Epithelium-autonomous NAIP/NLRC4 prevents TNF-driven inflammatory destruction of the gut epithelial barrier in Salmonella-infected mice.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that immediate and selective removal of infected enterocytes, by locally acting epithelium-autonomous NAIP/NLRC4, is required to avoid a TNF-driven inflammatory hyper-reaction that otherwise destroys the epithelial barrier.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salmonella Typhimurium discreet-invasion of the murine gut absorptive epithelium.

TL;DR: Contrary to the prevailing ruffle-model, it is found that absorptive epithelial cell entry in the mouse gut occurs through “discreet-invasion”, which challenges the current model for how S.Tm can enter gut absorption epithelial cells in their intact in vivo context.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epithelial inflammasomes in the defense against Salmonella gut infection.

TL;DR: The gut epithelium prevents bacterial access to the host's tissues and coordinates a number of mucosal defenses, which may enable defense against the challenges imposed by diverse bacterial enteropathogens.
