infect M cells via invasion plasmid antigenin colon and pyers patch
enter macrophage, and lyse phagosome, killing macrophage
enters in the lamina propria to infect the basal part of enterocyte using invastion plasmid antigens (IpaA and IpaD) using type 3 secretion
uses actin fillaments to move around into new cells
eveutally killls epitehlial cells

79
Q

shigella infection cycle is like

A

Listeria monocytogenes

80
Q

diseases of shigella

A

ulcer develops when invaded cells die and foll off

Diarrhead as response of inflammatory response

81
Q

what do ulcers do for shigella

A

allow shigela to reach lamina propria

82
Q

what kind of diarrhea is a reuslt of shigella

A

classic dysentery - small volume diarrhea, leukocytes, and RBC’s

83
Q

Shigella dysenteriae type 1 mortality rate

A

high mortality even with adults, alwaus have shiga toxin

84
Q

shigella dysenteriae type 1 results in

A

kills intestinal epithelial and endothelial cells
Disrupts Na absorption
Toxin can be systemic

85
Q

immunologic protection of shigella

A

does produce immunological protection, but no cross protection

86
Q

diagnosis of shigella

A

stool culture, O antigen aglutination tests to determine serotype

87
Q

how to treat diseases by shigella

A

self limiting, but antibiotics like ciproflaxacin and azithromycin can shorten illness time

88

89
Q

two types of salmonella

A

S. bongori

S. enterica

90

multiple: medicall importatn belong to the enterica subspecies

92
Q

naming salmonella species

A

diff subspecies have different disease
go by species name, subspecies, then serotype

industrialized nation and improper food handling, food born, eggs and poltry

94
Q

inoculum range of salmonella enterica gastroenteritis

A

express 40 PR found on pathogenicity islands on large virulence plasmds

100
Q

where does salmonella infections colonize

A

small intestine

101
Q

how does sallmonella infect

A
  1. Organism makes contact with M cell (likely via Type 1 pili) and injects effector molecules into cell with Type III secretion system.
  2. These events induce surface “ruffles” and uptake of the organisms (microbe-directed phagocytosis).
  3. Multiplies and remains within cell vesicles for many hours (unlike Shigella).
  4. Organisms released to lamina propria, inflammatory response is activated, ingested by phagocytes, then kills phagocyte.
  5. Macs engulf most, but some escape to cause a transient bacteremia
    - -the typhoid serovarswill survive and grow within the macrophages
