S. typhimurium CFU decrease in casp-1 −/ PP. Ligated intestinal loops were performed for 0.5 and 3 h and gentamicin-protected CFU per PP was determined. Lanes 1 (n = 9) and 5 (n = 10), casp-1 +/+ mice infected with SL1344. Lanes 2 (n = 9) and 6 (n = 11), casp-1 +/+ mice infected with noninvasive mutant BJ66 3. Lanes 3 (n = 10) and 7 (n = 13,) casp-1 −/ mice infected with SL1344. Lanes 4 (n = 12) and 8 (n = 12), casp-1 −/ mice infected with BJ66. Unpaired t test revealed P < 0.0001 and P = 0.0013 for SL1344 in casp-1 −/ compared with casp-1 +/+ at 0.5 and 3 h, respectively; P = 0.0001 for SL1344 in casp-1 +/+ mice for 0.5 versus 3 h; P = 0.0028 for SL1344 in casp-1 −/ mice for 0.5 versus 3 h. The noninvasive mutant produced numbers that were not statistically different between the two mouse strains. The mean and standard deviations are shown from two separate experiments.
