The rapidly disseminating multi-drug resistant H58 subclade is endemic in Africa, Asia, and Oceania, yet little is known regarding its intracellular behavior and virulence properties. It was of interest to understand the H58 response to host cell infection in terms of its response to acid stress and subsequent changes in gene regulation. We compared the H58 response\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                      and during infection of THP-1 human macrophages with the well-characterized response of\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Salmonella<\/jats:italic>\n                      Typhimurium, which causes gastroenteritis.

Typhimurium infections, bacteria reside in an acidic intracellular vacuole and become acidified, driving the expression of pathogenicity island 2 genes (SPI-2). SPI-2 virulence factors modify the vacuole and enable bacterial replication. In response to acid stress, the sulfur assimilation pathway is highly upregulated and unique to H58.
