By infecting mice on a susceptible background and deficient in B cells (Igmu-/- mice) with different strains of S. typhimurium, we could for the first time formally clarify the role of B cells in the response against S. typhimurium. Compared with Igmu+/+ mice, LD50 values in Igmu-/- mice were reduced during primary, and particularly secondary, oral infection with virulent S. typhimurium. After systemic infection, Igmu-/- mice cleared attenuated aroA- S. typhimurium, but vaccine-induced protection against systemic infection with virulent S. typhimurium involved both B cell-dependent and -independent effector mechanisms. Thus, B cell-mediated immunity plays a distinct role in control of S. typhimurium in susceptible mice.",
