Abstract

The invasion of HEp-2 cells by Salmonella typhimurium was studied under various conditions. Anaerobiosis was shown to markedly affect the internalization of bacterial cells by HEp-2 cells. Anaerobically grown bacteria incubated with HEp-2 cells under anaerobic conditions markedly stimulated the rate of invasion. Anaerobiosis may therefore be a controlling factor in the invasion process. Cells obtained during the logarithmic phase of growth invaded at much higher rates than cells obtained during the stationary phase of growth. The presence of mannose-sensitive type 1 fimbriae on the bacterial surface also promoted invasion, and these fimbriae appear to play a role as an accessory virulence factor.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
