PY - 2009 DA - 2009/02/03 TI - Campylobacter jejuni induces transcellular translocation of commensal bacteria via lipid rafts JO - Gut Pathogens SP - 2 VL - 1 IS - 1 AB - Campylobacter enteritis represents a risk factor for the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) via unknown mechanisms. As IBD patients exhibit inflammatory responses to their commensal intestinal microflora, factors that induce translocation of commensal bacteria across the intestinal epithelium may contribute to IBD pathogenesis. This study sought to determine whether Campylobacter induces translocation of non-invasive intestinal bacteria, and characterize underlying mechanisms.
