Mucosal surfaces, Enterobacteriacea-diarrheal diseases Salmonella and Shigella- invasive bacterial pathogens MM (2/27/18) Flashcards
types of gram-negative pathogens
Enterobacteriaecaeae
Vibrinoaceae
what is mucosal surface
interacts with air and secretes mucus
defense of mucosal surface
innate immunity, adaptive immunity, nonspecific barriers
why study GI diseases
lots of people get it, 500,000 in hospital, 5000 deaths
$10 bill in treatment\
begin in the oral/fecal route
why E. Coli outbreak in germany in 2011
alfa sprouts
852 cases of hemolyric uremic syndrome and 32 people died
E. Coli in chipotle
53 cases, 20 hospitalization
0 death
shiga toxin
how gram negative mucosal pathogens leaves the feces to get to your mouth
feces food fluid fingers flies formites fornication
inoculum size
how many needed to cause disease (some low-shigella and EHEC, EIEC, others high-ETEC, EPEC,vibrio)
natural barrier defences in GI
acidity:1-2 in stomach then 9 in Small intensine
Motility: stuff moves through Small intestine fast so bacteria can’t atach
Mucous layer and underlying glycocalyx
Tight juntion
where in the GI do we get lots of bacteria
near the end
what blocks infection with gram negative pathogen
normal flora natural defenses of GI Lysozymes (doesn't work too well against gram negative though to unexposed cell wall) Lactoferrin Cathelicidin Defensins Secretory immunoglobulins
action of lysozyme
cleaves beta 1,4-glycosidic linkage between N-acetylnuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine
action of lactoferrin
stops bacteria by sequestering iron
action of cathelicidin
disrupts bacterial membrane of Gm- and Gm+ and fungi
action of Defensins
creates pores on all microbes
who produced alpha-defensins
neutrophils and paneth cells (intestine
who produced beta defenisn
epithelial cells
how do bacteria overcome innate barrier defneces
acid resitance
Fimbriae/pili_adhere to tissue and avoid being spread
BActerial strucutre
what bacterial tend to be acid resitant
low infectious dose (Shigella and Enteroinvasive E Coli
What bacterial strucutres aid in overcoming pathogenic innate barrier densences
gram-/gram+ cell membrane sesnitive to bactericidal compounds
Cationic amino acids into cell membrane to reduce efects of cationic antimicrobial peptides
Siderophoers sequester iron
what immunity are macrophages part of
cell mediated immunity via TH1
use PAMPS
whta receptor is activated by gram negative bacteria
TLR4
activation of pattern recognition receptors on macrophages laed to
inflammatory response
morphology of enterobacteriaceae family
gram -
no spor
non acid fast
rods (coccobacilli to elongate filamentous rods)
growth of enterobacteriaceae family
faculataticve growth and visible after 12-18 hours
toxins on enterobacteriaceae
all endotoxin, some secrete exotoxin
cell wall components of enterobacteriaceae family
antignic:
o- outer antigen, LPS
k- polysaccharide capsule
H- flagella
source of serotypes of in bacterial species due to
cell surface antigens
where do enterobacteriaceae infections come from
external from environment and animal
not: salmonella ser typhi and shigella: strickly human
how does enterobacteriaceae cause a pathogen
opportunistic
most common infections by enterobacteriaeceae
UTI’s and acute diarrhea
what do E. Coli ferment
lactose
what do E. coli produce
indole
how to determine serotype of E. coli
O, K, and H antigens
E coli pili
type 1: most common, bind D mannose residues on epitheliail cells with an on/off
p pili: bind digalactoside found within urinary tract and erythrocytes
other: common to diarrheal binding to erythrocytes
E. coli toxins
alpha hemolysisn
Cytoxoic necrotizing factor
Shiga toxin
action of alpha-hemolysin
pore forming
action of cytoxoic necrotizing factor (CNF)
A-B toxin that produces G proteins (disrupt intraceullar signalling)
action of shiga toxin(Stx)
A-B toxin that blocks pr synth by ribosomal modification
pathogenic E coli
UropathogenicE. coli (UPEC) EnterotoxigenicE. coli (ETEC) EnteropathogenicE. coli (EPEC) EnteroinvasiveE. coli (EIEC) EnterohemorrhagicE. coli (EHEC) EnteroaggregativeE. coli (EAEC)
Enteropathogenic E. Coli (EPEC) causes
common causative agenet of nursery outbreaks in developing coutnries
adult inoculum of Enteropathogenic E. Coli (EPEC)
10^8 to 10^10 CFU
how does Enteropathogenic E. Coli (EPEC) attach to distal small intestinal enterocytes
bundle-forming pili (Bfp)
how does Enteropathogenic E. Coli (EPEC) inject into host cell
Type III secretion system to inject over 30 E. Coli secretion proteins(not toxin though)
how does Enteropathogenic E. Coli (EPEC) formation of attaching and effacing (A/E) lesion
Intimin-Tir interaction
