  • takes place in the cell surface, endosome and phagosome
36

area in which phagosytic cells can differentiate between live and dead e Coli and can recruit other effectors if necessary

37

NOD 1 and NOD 2

A

NOD 1 detects DAP on gram negative bacteria

NOD 2 detects MDP on all other bacterium

39
Q

Inflammasome

A

-where caspase 1 is activated to release IL1B
-causes pyroptosis which causes the release of the cytosolic contents and cell suicide (mostly in macrophages and dendritic cells)
pyroptosis is much stronger when perforin 1 is activated byNLRC4 and NLRP1B than NLRP 3

40
Q

additional caspases in humans and mice (NBD-LRR)

A

mice- CASP11 and 12

humans- CASP4 and 5

41

cytosolic DNA sensing (STING)

A

cGAS binds to DNA to form cGAMP which uses ATP and GTP to activate STING which stimulates IFN genes (positive feedback)

42
Q

STING in therapy

A

in cancer this pathway impedes on cell transformation and replication
in HPV and HIV a person without STING is much more effected
STING is a vaccine adjuvant in mucosal setting

43
Q

keratinocytes

found on the skin, can recognize PAMPs and DAMPs and attack usng TLRs and the inflammasome

44
Q

the skin as an immunological organ

A
  • SALT and SJS, both show that skin is a traffic guard- immunoserveillance
  • 20 bil T cells on skin
  • early exposure to microbes on skin stops inflammatory skin conditions
45
Q

How is all skin different

A

commesal microbiota in different areas have different confgurations of 16s rRNA, dampnesses, exposure to sunlight, oiliness, etc

46
Q

Neonatal care and tregg

A

tregg helps babies grow their skin microbiotaa and not have as many skin conditions in the future

47
Q

gamma delta t cells

A
  • first line of defense
  • YDelta chain receptors
  • found in skin, intestines, lungs and reproductive tract
48
Q

occludin downregulation

A

reduces YDelta chain receptoes in epithelium and increases migration speed of YDelta T cells which requires perforin 2

49
Q

tight junctions

A

promotes skin barrier function

50
Q

MRSA survival

A

in order for intracellularr MRSA to be killed there must be perforin 2 to form YDelta T cells

51
Q

MACPF containing pore forming proteins jobs

A
  • kill extracellular bacteria- C9/ polyC9 complement
  • kill cancer cells- perforin 1
  • kill intracellular bacteria-perforin 2
52
Q

perforin 2

A
  • ancient trans membrane, pore forming protein containing MACPF
  • without P2 intracellular bacteria can not be killed becasue P2 fuses with the phagosome to kill bacteria
  • ROS, NO and lysozyme enhance P2 killing skills
  • all healthy cells have P2 (from sponge to human)
53
Q

perforin 2 defficiency

A
  • defficiency in P2 will cause mice to die

- P2 must be activated for septic shock, necrosis or inflammation to occur

54
Q

Where is MACPF domain in P2

A

located in the membrane vesicles which shows P2 has ability to kill targets, cytoplasm domain signals killing

55
Q

P2 deficiency proves what?

A

because P2 is necessary, ROS, No and lysozyme are further along the chain and P2 must first perforate (form pores) the bacteria in order for ROS and NO to get to it for later death

56
Q

P2 and non pathogenic bacteria

A

commensal bacteria does not kill P2 defficient mice, but only pathogenic bacteria does, P2 is rate limiting in bacterial killing

57
Q

P2 defficiency in humans

A
  • Humans without P2 will be infected continually with avium intracellulare, pseudomonas aeroginosa, and aspergillus
  • will not have inflammation or die of septic shock and tissue damage
  • causes resistance to colitis
58
Q

cytoplasm has conserved signals for P2 activation

A

lysines (K)- proteolytic cleavage

serines (S) and tyrosines (Y)- phosphorylation

59
Q

P2 killing complex

A

Ubiquitin like protein- can signal for degradation of proteasome, alter cell location, affect activity and prevent protein interactions, regroups P2 to fight infection
*** requires neddylation of NEDD8 or UBL will be inactive

60
Q

only two ways that pathogenic bacteria can get around P2

A

suppress inductionof P2 transcription

Block P2 activation at: phosphorylation, translocation, ubiquitylation, polymerization

61
Q

Q

Listeria

A

ubiquitous gram positive bacteria in the environment which causes foodborne disease known as listeriosis and also causes Tiger River disease

64
Q

which barriers can listeria traverse

A

brain and placental which can result in miscarraige, premature delivery, infection of new born or stillbirth

65

what causes listeriosis?

A

grows at refrigeratiion temperatures, can get into soil or be carried in meat and dairy (cold cuts, soft cheeses and unpasteurized milk)

66
Q

symtpoms of listeriosis

A

first symtpoms: fever, muscle aches, nausea and diarrhea

nervous system symtoms: headache, stiff neck, confusion, loss of balance, convulsions

67
Q

steps of listeriosis

A
  • escape the membrane vesicle
  • replicate in cytosol
  • changes shape of the cytoskeleton
  • actin polymerization helps with entry
  • CD8+ T cells mediate clearance of listeriosis
68
Q

listeriosis virulence factors

A
  • internalin A + E allows bacteria in the epithelium
  • internalin B binds hepatocytes in GI tract
  • Act A 2- responsible for actin based motility
  • listeriolysin O- moves bacteria from vacuole to cytosol
  • internalin P allows it in placenta
69
Q

pregnant women are more likely to have listeriosis than any other group, why?

A

the infection in the placenta can migrate into the mothers liver and spleen causing the mother to be further infected

70
Q

SYN

A

SYN blocks infection from mother and placental barrier, but due to clots they can become damaged

71
Q

innate immune response for listeriosis

A
  • macrophages such as kupffer cells initial killers that use ROS and NO to be successful
  • macrophages secrete TNF and IL12 to increased effectiveness of the macrophages
72
Q

-TLR5- flagella
MyD88- starts almost all TLR signals

Q

positive regulatory factor A

A

transcription activator of genes for listeria pathogenesis, glutathione is the activator

74
Q

what sets listeria apart in terms of T1I

A

T1I are beneficial to listeria by making it grow, not other types of bacteria have this effect
