GSE114033: Transcriptional responses in whole blood of healthy adult volunteers experimentally challenged with S. Paratyphi

• Organsim human
• Type RNASEQ
• Target gene
• Project ARCHS4

This studies describes the transcriptional response in whole blood derived from healthy adult volunteers experimentally infected with S. Paratyphi A. Samples were collected at pre-challenge baseline (Group: CTRL), at day 7 after challenge in those participants who stayed well over 14 days following challenge (Group: suspected Enteric Fever - sEF). Participants who developed signs of enteric fever were sampled at the time of inititiation of antibiotics (Group: EF).In this group diagnosis was confirmed by blood culture positive for S. Paratyphi (SPT). Antibiotic therapy commenced at time of diagnosis or at day 14 after challenge in those who did not develop symptoms. The clinical results of this study have been published in: Dobinson et al. Evaluation of the Clinical and Microbiological Response to Salmonella Paratyphi A Infection in the First Paratyphoid Human Challenge Model. Clin Infect Dis. 2017 Apr 15;64(8):1066-1073.
