Project description:We used RNA-seq to determine transcriptional profiles of whole guts or IPCs isolated from guts infected with wild type or type VI secretion system deficient Vibrio cholerae. We found significant differences between guts and progenitor cells infected wild type or type VI secretion system deficient Vibrio cholerae.
Project description:To determine whether the Vibrio cholerae type VI secretion system (T6SS) is functional during animal infection, derivatives of V52 were used to infect infant mice. In this infection model, a diarrheal response occurred and effector translocation could be detected. These host responses were dependent on a functional T6SS and on the actin cross-linking effector domain of VgrG-1. Gene expression and histological studies showed innate immune activation and immune cell infiltration in the intestinal lumen.
