RESUMO
Infection of human macrophages with Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium or Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin produces delayed cytotoxicity characterized by cell detachment and associated apoptosis. Using a site-specific mutant in the SpvB active site, we verify that the ADP-ribosylation activity of SpvB is required for delayed cytotoxicity in human macrophages infected with Salmonella. SipB and the type III protein secretion system (TTSS) encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) are not involved, whereas the SPI2 TTSS is absolutely required for SpvB-dependent cytotoxicity. Furthermore, we show that infection of macrophage cultures with wild-type or sipB mutant bacteria led to a complete loss of polymerized actin in over half of the cells after 24 h. In contrast, macrophages infected with the spvB or SPI2 (ssaV or ssaJ) mutant strain retained normal F-actin filaments, despite similar numbers of intracellular bacteria. We conclude that SpvB and a functional SPI2 TTSS are essential for Salmonella-induced delayed cytotoxicity of human macrophages.
