 | | Some areas of active investigation include the means by which salmonellae attach to and invade the intestine, survive within phagosomes, effect a massive efflux of electrolytes and water into the intestinal lumen, and develop drug resistance. |  | | Although nontyphoid salmonellae generally precipitate a localized response, S typhi and other especially virulent strains invade deeper tissues via lymphatics and capillaries and elicit a major immune response. |  | | Darwin KH, Miller VL: Molecular basis of the interaction of Salmonella with the intestinal mucosa. |

| | Salmonella information |
 | | As their name suggests Salmonella enterica are involved in causing diseases of the intestines (enteric means pertaining to the intestine). |  | | There is a great deal of confusion over the naming of Salmonella strains (even the people who work on Salmonella are confused!) but in essence, the strains which we will deal with here are generally different serovars of Salmonella enterica. |  | | In the liver, the Salmonella can grow again, and be released back into the intestine. |
