“…In the absence of the Vi-capsule, S. typhi is more sensitive to host immune activities. [16][17][18] The Vi-capsule has immunomodulatory features that contribute to disease development, such as restricting complement deposition, minimizing immunological activity, facilitating phagocytosis evasion, and inhibiting serum bacterial activity. [16] After an incubation period of 7 to 21 days, hematogenous dissemination occurs to the reticule-endothelial system (liver, spleen and bone marrow), where Salmonella penetrate the histiocyte cells.…”
