The pathogenesis of<unk>  varies among the different Salmonella serovars. Typhoidal  and nontyphoidal Salmonella (NTS) interact with host defense mechanisms, eliciting variable immune responses in humans. NTS colonizes the intestine, induces neutrophil migration into the intestinal lumen, and causes a self limiting inflammatory diarrhea. Bacteremia due to NTS is rare but can occur, especially in persons infected with HIV. Individuals with type I cytokine pathway deficiencies are at increased risk of developing NTS infection.
