Generally is associated with food poisoning B. Salmonella choleraesuis - host adapted to the pig 1. Enteric route leads to diarrhea, septicemia, and death 2. For diarrhea, the inflammatory response results in the elevation of prostaglandins which results in the elevation of cyclic-AMP resulting in hypersecretion. Damage to villus absorptive epithelial cells also results in malabsorption. Some strains also produce an E. coli LT-like enterotoxin.
Cells migrate to regional lymph nodes and can spread to other internal organs.
If this occurs, septicemia and death are common. Endotoxin probably contributes to the disease Salmonella in phagocyte in a capillary and in endothelial cells H. Immunity and therapy 1. Immunity is cell mediated because cells are intracellular 2. There are some vaccines for pigs and calves but efficacy is not high 3. Antibiotics can be used particularly for septicemia.
