QseC is a membrane-bound histidine sensor kinase found in Gram-negative pathogens and is involved in the regulation of bacterial virulence. LED209, a QseC-specific inhibitor, significantly inhibits the virulence of several pathogens and partially protects infected mice from death by blocking QseC. However, the mechanism of its antibacterial effects remains unclear. In this experiment, a Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) and macrophage co-culture system was utilized to investigate possible mechanisms underlying the antimicrobial effects of the QseC inhibitor. QseC blockade inhibited the expression of QseC-dependent virulence genes, including flhDC, sifA, and sopB, in S. Typhimurium, leading to inhibition of swimming motility, invasion capacity, and replication capacity of the pathogens. Release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from S. Typhimurium-infected macrophages was significantly inhibited by blocking QseC. Activated caspase-1 and IL-1β levels were suppressed, and intracellular bacterial count was reduced in infected macrophages. QseC blockade effectively reduced the virulence of S. Typhimurium, inhibited S. Typhimurium-induced pyroptosis of macrophages, and promoted elimination of intracellular bacteria from infected macrophages. Thus, the antibacterial effects of QseC inhibitor are mediated via enhancement of intracellular killing of S. Typhimurium in macrophages.
