<i>Salmonella </i>Typhimurium <i>StiP</i>-mediated upregulation of membrane protein Alx drives complement evasion via CFI-dependent C3b degradation by jin guan (21792620)

“…Typhimurium, among which the <i>StiP</i> deletion strain (263<i>ΔStiP</i>) showed the greatest serum resistance reduction (2.49-fold). We further explored the role of <i>StiP</i> in host blood environment adaptation and found that 263<i>ΔStiP</i> displayed 3.12-fold reduced HeLa cell adhesion, 3.74-fold lower HeLa cell invasion, 1.92-fold decreased intra-macrophage survival, and 50% reduced serum resistance versus wild-type 263 (WT263), collectively indicating that <i>StiP</i> is critical for host blood environment adaptation in invasive <i>S</i>. …”
