Q

salmonella enteric fever (typhoid) pathogenesis

A

invasion of gut wall via M cells leads to transport by macrophages and spreading via lymphatics top major organs. there is macrophage apoptosis, bacteremia, toxemia.

A

tumbling.

38
Q

listeria monocytogenes hemolysis

A

beta hemolytic

39
Q

listeria monocytogenes growth?

A

grows well in the cold, found on animals, plants and soil

40
Q

how do we contract listeria monocytogenes

A

unpasteurized dairy products, undercooked meats, raw vegetables, contact with livestock and manure

41
Q

who does listeria monocytogenes primarily infet

A

fetus across placenta, newborns during delivery, pregnant women, immunocompromised

42
Q

what virulence factors does listeria monocytogenes have

A

internalin -binds to host E-cadherin, mediates invasion of cells in GI tract, placenta and meninges.
listeriolysin -opens the phagosome and bacteria escapes into the cytoplasm
ActA virulence -actin rockets for infectivity

43
Q

how does listeria monocytogenes grow in the host

A

intracellularly

44
Q

how does listeria monocytogenes spread throughout the host

45
Q

diagnosis of listeria monocytogenes

A

gram stain diptheroids, culture: small gray beta hemolytic colonies further distinguished by sugar metabolism and motility.
