Abstract

Editorial: How Salmonella Infection can Inform on Mechanisms of Immune Function and Homeostasis.

Highlights

  • Our ability to survive requires the competency to control infection

  • Infections caused by serovars of the species Salmonella enterica, spread through fecal–oral transmission, exemplify this and are a major reason why this organism was chosen as the theme of this Research Topic

  • The reasons behind the diverse clinical manifestations of this infection are introduced by Gal-Mor and colleagues [3], who discuss the differences between typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella strains

Summary

Introduction

Our ability to survive requires the competency to control infection. In the last 50 years, there has been an explosion in our understanding of the processes that underlie this. Infections caused by serovars of the species Salmonella enterica, spread through fecal–oral transmission, exemplify this and are a major reason why this organism was chosen as the theme of this Research Topic. The prevention of infection and the control of bacterial spread require the complex interplay between the microbiota and innate and adaptive immune mechanisms.
