Listeria monocytogenes use multiple mechanisms to disseminate from the intestinal lamina propria to the mesenteric lymph nodes by Joshua S. Nowacki, Grant S. Jones, Sarah E. F. D'Orazio

“…Together, these results suggest that L. monocytogenes can use multiple, redundant mechanisms to disseminate from the gut tissue to the MLN.IMPORTANCEConsumption of the foodborne bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes results in a wide spectrum of human disease from mild self-limiting gastroenteritis to life-threatening infections of the bloodstream, brain, and placenta. It is not well understood how the bacteria migrate from the intestines to the draining mesenteric lymph nodes, which are thought to serve as the last barrier to prevent systemic infections. …”
