摘要：Type III secretion system 1 (T3SS1) encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) is associated with invasion of host cells by Salmonella, PrgH encoded by prgH gene is an important component of T3SS1. This study aimed to explore the contribution of prgH gene for Salmonella Pullorum to virulence and the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1 and IL-1 beta in chickens. A prgH gene deletion mutant (C79-13 Delta prgH) was firstly generated, and the result of LD50 showed that deletion of prgH significantly decreased the virulence of Salmonella Pullorum in one-day-old HY-line white chickens, and the colonization also decreased in chickens after loss of prgH. Next, the expressions of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1 beta were detected in acute infection model of chickens by qRT-PCR and/or ELISA, respectively, and the results showed that the mutant strain C79-13 Delta prgH reduced the expression levels of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1 beta in chickens compared to the group infected with the wild type strain C79-13. Taken together, all of these findings indicated that prgH promotes the virulence and the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, and IL-1 beta for Salmonella Pullorum in chickens.
