Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium exploits inflammation to compete with the intestinal microbiota
(2007)PLoS BiologyMost mucosal surfaces of the mammalian body are colonized by microbial communities (“microbiota”). A high density of commensal microbiota inhabits the intestine and shields from infection (“colonization resistance”). The virulence strategies allowing enteropathogenic bacteria to successfully compete with the microbiota and overcome colonization resistance are poorly understood. Here, we investigated manipulation of the intestinal microbiota ...Journal Article
