Background.  There are no reported data to explain how  Salmonella  suppress nitrite ion production in macrophages or whether this phenomenon is unique to typhoidal or non-typhoidal serovars. The aims of this study were, therefore, to investigate these phenomena.  Methods . We measured survival of  S. typhimurium  14028 and its phoP mutant in murine J774 macrophages, cultured with or without interferon gamma. We compared expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA and protein, and nitrite ion production and also examined binding of nuclear factor  κ B (NF κ B) and activator protein 1 (AP-1) to macrophage DNA.  Results .  S. typhimurium  14028 inhibited binding of NF κ B and AP-1 to DNA in murine J774. A macrophages via an intact phoP regulon. This correlated with increased survival and reduced iNOS expression. Suppression of NF κ B activity was ameliorated in macrophages cultured with IFN-  γ   and this correlated with increased expression of iNOS mRNA and nitrite ion production, although IFN-  γ   had no effect on AP-1/DNA interaction. We show, that with one exception, suppression of iNOS is unique to typhoidal serovars.  Conclusion .  S. typhimurium  inhibit NF κ B and AP-1 interaction with macrophage DNA via the PhoP regulon, this reduces nitrite ion production and is principally associated with typhoidal serovars.

Inhibited Production of iNOS by Murine J774 Macrophages Occurs via aphoP-Regulated Differential Expression of NFκB and AP-1
