Article Synopsis
- Yersinia spp. strains use a type III secretion system to inject Yop effector proteins into human cells, particularly influencing inflammatory responses.
- The study focused on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and found that the YopP protein significantly downregulates the expression of adhesion molecules and cytokines involved in inflammation.
- Notably, high-virulence Yersinia enterocolitica strains (biotype 1B) were more effective at inhibiting inflammatory responses compared to low-virulence strains, with the degree of inhibition dependent on the contact duration and strain characteristics.
