Abstract
In this study, we investigated the protective effects of tannin-derived components, gallic acid (GA) and tannic acid (TA), in vitro and in vivo against Salmonella infection in mice. Both GA and TA showed antibacterial effects against Salmonella (S.) Typhimurium as well as inhibitory effects on the adherence, invasion, and intracellular growth of the pathogens in macrophages. Following a lethal dose of Salmonella infection in mice, reduced virulence in both GA- and TA-treated groups was observed based on reduced mortality rates. In the non-infected groups, the average weights of the spleens and livers of GA- or TA-treated mice were not significantly different with the control group. In addition, the average weights of these organs in all of the Salmonella-infected groups were not significantly different but the numbers of bacteria in the spleens and livers in both GA- and TA-treated mice were significantly reduced. The levels of cytokine production in non-infected mice revealed that GA-treated and TA-treated mice elicited an increased level of IFN-γ, and both IFN-γ and MCP-1, respectively, as compared with the PBS-treated group. These findings highlight the potential of GA and TA as alternatives for the treatment of salmonellosis and as supplements to conventional antimicrobial food additives.

Glycan:glycan interactions: High affinity biomolecular interactions that can mediate binding of pathogenic bacteria to host cells. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2015; 112:E7266-75.

Abstract
Cells from all domains of life express glycan structures attached to lipids and proteins on their surface, called glycoconjugates. Cell-to-cell contact mediated by glycan:glycan interactions have been considered to be low-affinity interactions that precede high-affinity protein-glycan or protein-protein interactions. In several pathogenic bacteria, truncation of surface glycans, lipooligosaccharide (LOS), or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have been reported to significantly reduce bacterial adherence to host cells. Here, we show that the saccharide component of LOS/LPS have direct, high-affinity interactions with host glycans. Glycan microarrays reveal that LOS/LPS of four distinct bacterial pathogens bind to numerous host glycan structures. Surface plasmon resonance was used to determine the affinity of these interactions and revealed 66 high-affinity host-glycan:bacterial-glycan pairs with equilibrium dissociation constants (K(D)) ranging between 100 nM and 50 µM. These glycan:glycan affinity values are similar to those reported for lectins or antibodies with glycans. Cell assays demonstrated that glycan:glycan interaction-mediated bacterial adherence could be competitively inhibited by either host cell or bacterial glycans. This is the first report to our knowledge of high affinity glycan:glycan interactions between bacterial pathogens and the host. The discovery of large numbers of glycan:glycan interactions between a diverse range of structures suggests that these interactions may be important in all biological systems.

Abstract
The effects of carrageenans (CGNs) on the host defense mechanisms of macrophages against Salmonella infection were examined in vitro by using macrophage-like J774.1 cells. Iota-CGN reduced the Salmonella-binding and phagocytotic activities of J774.1 cells, but it increased the killing activity of the cells. Kappa-CGN increased the binding activity, but reduced the killing ability. CGNs would affect the host defense mechanisms by modulating the macrophage functions.

Abstract
The host response to Salmonella typhimurium involves movement of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) across the epithelium and into the intestinal lumen. Following their arrival in the lumen, the PMN attempt to combat bacterial infection by activating antimicrobial defenses such as granule release, oxidative burst, phagocytosis, and cell signaling. We sought to examine PMN-S. typhimurium interaction following PMN arrival in the lumenal compartment. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate that PMN that have transmigrated across model intestinal epithelia have an enhanced ability to kill S. typhimurium. Our data provide evidence to indicate that the extracellular release of the primary and secondary granules of PMN, myeloperoxidase and lactoferrin, respectively, is correlated with enhanced bacterial killing. Furthermore, epithelial cells, during PMN transmigration, release the cytokine IL-6. IL-6 is known to increase intracellular stores of Ca(2+), and we have determined that this epithelial released cytokine is not only responsible for priming the PMN to release their granules, but also stimulating the PMN to kill S. typhimurium. These results substantiate the pathway in which PMN transmigration activates the epithelial release of IL-6, which in turn increases intracellular Ca(2+) storage. Our results, herein, extend this pathway to include an enhanced PMN granule release and an enhanced killing of S. typhimurium.

Abstract
Macrophages recognize, adhere to, and phagocytose Salmonella typhimurium. The major outer membrane protein OmpC is a candidate ligand for macrophage recognition. To confirm this we used transposon mutagenesis to develop an ompC-deficient mutant in a known virulent strain of S. typhimurium; mutant and wild type were compared in macrophage adherence and association assays. Radiolabeled wild type S. typhimurium bound to macrophages at five-fold higher levels than did the ompC mutant. In association assays, macrophages in monolayers bound and internalized three-fold more wild type than mutant, while macrophages in suspension bound and internalized 40-fold more wild type than mutant. The ompC gene of our test strain of S. typhimurium contains several discrete differences compared with the ompC genes of Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli. The deduced OmpC amino acid sequence of S. typhimurium shares 77 and 98% identity with OmpC amino acid sequences of E. coli and S. typhi, respectively. Evidence from this study supports a role for the OmpC protein in initial recognition by macrophages and distinguishes regions of this protein that potentially participate in host-cell recognition of bacteria by phagocytic cells.Key words: Salmonella, porin, macrophage, outer membrane protein, DNA sequencing.

Abstract
Murine peritoneal macrophages bind to Salmonella typhimurium in vitro in the absence of exogenous opsonins. We have identified an outer membrane protein of S. typhimurium that mediates this adhesion. Biotin-labeled macrophages were used to probe electroblotted envelope proteins of S. typhimurium that had been previously resolved by polyacrylamide electrophoresis under denaturing and reducing conditions. Macrophages bound to an outer membrane protein with an apparent molecular mass of 44 kDa. The protein was purified to homogeneity and free of detectable lipopolysaccharide. Limited microsequencing of this protein resulted in a 15-amino acid query sequence of A-E-V-Y-N-K-D-G-N-K-L-D-L-Y-G, which shares complete identity with a 15-mer of both the OmpD of S. typhimurium SH 7454 and the OmpC polypeptide of Escherichia coli K-12. Picomolar concentrations of this purified protein significantly inhibited the subsequent adherence of 35S-labeled S. typhimurium to macrophages in monolayers. We propose that this 44-kDa protein is involved in the recognition of S. typhimurium by macrophage during the initial stages of infection.
