MicroRNA responses associated with Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium challenge in peripheral blood: effects of miR-146a and IFN-γ in regulation of fecal bacteria shedding counts in pig

Abstract

The results indicated that induction of miR-146a in peripheral blood could significantly increase the fecal bacterial load, whereas IFN-γ had the reverse effect. These microRNAs can be used to identify targets for controlling porcine salmonellosis.
