| Abstract | Salmonella spp. and Shigella spp. are responsible for millions of cases of enteric disease each year worldwide. While these pathogens have evolved distinct strategies for interacting with the human intestinal epithelium, they both induce significant proinflammatory responses that result in massive transepithelial migration of neutrophils across the intestinal mucosa. It has previously been shown with Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium that the process of neutrophil transmigration is mediated in part by the secretion of hepoxilin A3 (HXA3; 8-hydroxy-11,12-epoxy-eicosatetraenoic acid), a potent neutrophil chemoattractant, from the apical surface of infected model intestinal epithelium. This study confirms that HXA3 is also secreted in response to infection by Shigella flexneri, that it is produced by a pathway involving 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX), and that S. enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. flexneri share certain elements in the mechanism(s) that underlies the otherwise separate signal transduction pathways that are engaged to induce polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) transepithelial migration (protein kinase C and extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2, respectively). PMN transepithelial migration in response to infection with S. flexneri was dependent on 12/15-LOX activity, the enzyme responsible for the initial metabolism of arachidonic acid to HXA3. Probing further into this pathway, we also found that S. enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. flexneri activate different subtypes of phospholipase A2, a critical enzyme involved in the liberation of arachidonic acid from cellular membranes. Thus, although S. enterica serovar Typhimurium and S. flexneri utilize different mechanisms for triggering the induction of PMN transepithelial migration, we found that their reliance on 12/15-LOX is conserved, suggesting that enteric pathogens may ultimately stimulate similar pathways for the synthesis and release of HXA3. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
