Abstract

Campylobacter jejuni represents an important zoonotic pathogen that is causing foodborne enteric infections. In the human gut, C. jejuni bacteria induce intestinal campylobacteriosis which can develop into systemic post-infectious sequelae such as Guillain-Barré syndrome or rheumatoid arthritis. Here, we review the pathobiology and molecular mechanisms of C. jejuni infections as well as promising strategies to combat campylobacteriosis within the "One World - One Health" approach.
