Rota general

A

(Reo, rota genus, RV A-J)

Basically all birds, mammals can be infected…
V resistant in environment. Frequent recombinations -> tricky to prevent with immunization. Fluid loss due to diarrhoea. HU susc. Too. Common, worldwide
Affect to epithelial cells covering the villus - temporarily shortened villi
Basal cells intact - repair within a week, full recovery within 2w (if no severe exiccosis or secudnary infections)
Hygiene important. Frequent coinfections = worse outcome!
MATERNAL IMMUNITY IS ONLY DEFENSE AGAINST ROTA!

We see sudden diarrhoea in 1-2w olds, mortality may occur in secundary infections.

Q

Salmonella general

A

Enterobacteria familiy, genus salmonella.
Spp s. Enterica subsp enterica cause the diseases. The “spp” named in topics are different serovars belonging to this species!

Serovar-animal species specific severity (=murium mice kill mice but diarrhorea in other animal eg)
G- rods.
- Zoonosis, loads of asympt carriage.
- germinative infection!! Will always get to next generation.
- ab/vax only for signs, carry still whole life basically

84
Q

Salomnella pathogenesis

A

From Environment or animal -> oronasal/vertical infection -> gut -> blood -> PO -> ab response -> hide in joints, tendon sheath, foetus giving chronic signs!

85
Q

​Yersinioses: rodentiosis and diseases caused by Yersinia enterocolitica (Zoon.).

A

Y. Pseudotuberculosis. Mostly PO infection from facal contamination - poor food/water source! Small rodents and hares most imp, but birds and mammals too predisposing needed! GI -> septicemia with focal inflammation and necrosis in PO. General signs and diarrhoea in rodents, swine, eq, car, while cattle may present with diarrhoea, mastitis and abortion, and birds diarrhoea and arthritis!

Enterocolitica. More common than rodentiosis, common asympt, signs in young, common crossreactions with brucella bc O9 serotype, swine shed in feces and maintain + other is susceptible. The disease is similar. Rodents can be infected too, so imp when improving management. Most eu countries are free from so importance of maintenance! Humans must wash fruit and veg!

86
Q

​Necrobacillosis and panaritium of ruminants.

A

Necrobacillosis: Weak invasion capacity, anaerobe. Need predisposing!! (Entry way), most common in YOUNG (lamb, calf, rabbit). Infection form skin, mm, naval infection or rumen parakeratisos. We recognize by necrosis in oral cavity, slaivation, pain, general signs. If naval inf/rumen parakeratosis we see liver necrosis (rare!) due to toxin prod (proteases). Mucous memb of oral cav, pain - clean necrotic tissue and good disinfection surgically needed (oxidizing disinfection)

Footrot:
Warm, wet. Dichelobacter nodosus, strict anaerobe! Stand long time, warm, rainy(spring/autumn) -> softer hoof and plac of entry! Or poor ground causing wound. Shed from feces - hygiene omp. 100% morbidity!! Suffolk sheep more susceptible, hoof not as hard as other races. Other bacteria present in lesions, eg. F. Necrophorum! (Necrobacillosis) can lead to footrot), strept, staph help create anaerobe environment. Sheep! (Suffold soft hoof) Aerobe consume ox (stap, strept, entero), local environment for fuso necrophorum to join aswell, further reduce ox, synergistic effect help dichelobacter nod –> repl –> virulence facto prod –> fibria, can now attach to arget cells -> protease, keratinase damage hoof and tissues –> local cap damage, decr circ –> further help detachement of hoof.. interdig derm -> extended necrosis. Benign - footbath, virulent - surgical + local and parenteral ab.

Diagnosis of INDUVIDUAL ANIMALS!

90
Q

​Anatipestifer disease and disease caused by Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale.

A

(Weeksellaceae family) no germinative, non-enveloped, G-, mm?

Infectious serositis: rimiella anatipestifer. Large flocks, facultative - predisposing, loads of serotypes, many birds susceptible but most severe in ducklings under 2m - LARGE SCALE DUCK FARMS.
Low resistance - survive in water. Long shedding. Wild bird spread, no vertical (like last, prev pasturella but re-classified) resp, gi(green), cns. 50%mortality

OR: Growers(no vertical) - broiler, turkey (farm mammals, wild birds), facultative, many serotypes, low resistance, need predisposing, no vertical. Young - peracute, acute, older - asympt
Resp signs, mucous suffocate, serositis, + decr egg no in layer

91
Q

Tularaemia (not pathogenesis)

A

Franciella tularensis. First seen in norway in 1653(lemmen), mainly rodent and wild rabbit (but super wide host range, bioterrorism) - zoonosis! Maintenance btw bloodsucking - wild rabbit and bird. Mainly in northern hemisphere! Uniform, tricky to culture.

Number of cases depend on rodent population, from urine (christmas tree workers). Either acute septicemic (tular-emia) of chronic disease - inflamm necrotic foci in parench organs. Can be lethal.

Long immunity! Eg a lot of sheep affected, loads of ticks - think of this!

92
Q

Tularemia pathogenesis

103
Q

Burkholderia

A

​Glanders and melioidosis (Zoon.). Fac IC.

Malleus/farcy: ND, zoonotic - Glanders, an often fatal contagious disease of equidae (donkey v susc), now found in remote areas of the world, eradicated in europe, is caused by Burkholderia mallei. The disease is characterized by purulent nasal discharge(help spread of poor res), nasal mucosal ulceration, lung lesions, and ulcerating nodules along the subcutaneous lymphatics. Diagnosis is based on presence of nasal ulcers, complement fixation test reaction, positive mallein test(allergic test in conjunct), and culture and PCR. Ddx STRANGLES (enlarged LNs can be moved, here ct proliF!),Control is based on isolation and culling of affected animals.

Pseudomallei: Zoonotic, sporadic import to europe, su, bo, cap, eq, camel - pigs carry often! Warm, rainy and stress may cause infection - NO SPREAD BTW ANIMALS - SOIL BACTERIA! So rain, warm… predisp.
Abcesses are seen, resp signs, (diarrheoa, CNS) - varying, depending on lesion!

104
Q

(Dont mix with actinobacillus! Sleepy foal, cap ascending, torus)

Enteric (av, su, ca, fe, (bo)
Colonize gut, asympt or mild diarrhoea

Av Hepatitis:
PO -> gut(no lesion) -> liver(repl) -> septicemia

106
Q

Lawsonia intracellularis

A

Obli IC, G-, poor resistance

Wide host range, but we focus on pig bc here we see signs. Obl IC pathogen of enterocytes. Poor resistance, but survive alright in feces - carriers or rodents as source of infection! (Water, feed, environment) Economic impact of growers (more common) - decr gain, more feed needed. More severe in young. (But rarer)
All forms related to repl of enterocytes - thickening (gyri like, like paratuberculosis)
Degen/reparation?: fibrin ppt, necrosis, bleeding - LOCAL ONLY!
Acute: young 1-5m, A, Chronic: older 4-12m, B, C, D
A) Intestinal adenomatosis (adenoma - edema!, necrosis, tube like, ddx paratuberculosis)
B) Necrotic enteritis - necrosis
C) Regional ileitis - hypertrophy of muscular layer
D) Proliferative haemorrhagic enteropathy - blood, black feces, anemia!

107
Q

Spirocheates general

  • Long incubation
  • slow spread (not Lepto su)
  • serotypes not spp!!
  • borrelia: arbo, blood
  • Lepto: water
  • Treponema: rabbit syphilis
  • brachysp: varying..
108
Q

Mycoplasma topics without mentioning mycoplasma in title :-)

A

​Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia.

109
Q

Mycoplasma general

A

Huge economic impact, widespread, large scale farmes

  • fast spread, low resistance, found on mm. (Vs. Mycobact resistant, slow spread, fac IC) -> aerogenic, direct contact
    (Slow: (bo)mycoides, (su) hyopneumoniae, gallisepticum)
  • host specific! (Exc gallisepticum, canis)
  • growers!! (After weaning, early laying..)
  • vertical! (But often local in lung) Eg bovis, gallisepticum born with resp signs
  • No cell wall - polymorphic, G- but stain dont work. (Vs. Mycobact G+, no stain bc high lipid in cell wall)
  • Smallest bacteria. Neep special tp media!
  • Some are easy to culture, someone hard… the easy might overgrow the hard ones. Haemotrophic cant becultured!
  • Most are stenoxen (gallisepticum several bird spp, canis: ru mainly + other).
  • Immunosuppression - Hide -> tricky eradication, prevention
  • remain carriers
  • usually infect older than suckling… (but still young!)

Diagnosis: saprophytes in mm - 16ssRNA ddx!

110
Q

Mycoplasma pathogenesis

A
  • Cell level pathogenicity! Damage cells, cilia, hides amongh them, and blocks receptors (delayed ab production, wbc activity) –> immunosuppression!) –> hard to eradicate!
  • Haemotrophic damage rbc, lower lifespan so we see anemia and jaundice!

Often stays in resp, septicemia - arthritis is typical.

often 100% morbidity!
(Immunosuppr - v contagious, aerog)

  • MAKePS (mastitis, arthitis, keratitis, pneumonia, septicemia (anemia- haemotr)
111
Q

Chalmydia general

A
  • Obl ic bacterium, G-, great res
  • biphasic form; EC elementary body and IC as reticulate body. They form IC vesicle from cytopl memb of host for extra ic protection.
  • Super resistant, can survive dehydrated for a month! They replicate on mm of gi and resp. Intermittent shedding
  • Isolation tricky bc need live cells (embr egg eg, and serological methods expensive!
  • Occur in birds and mammals. Asympt carriage is common!
  • Remember no peptidoglycan in cell wall so cant use ab that acts on this! wide spectrum ab is needed, eg. TTC or macrolides!
112
Q

Chlamydia pathogenesis

A

Oronasal -> gut/resp mm -> blood -> foetus, lung, CNS, joints, conjunctiva

113
Q

Coxiella

A
  • Coxiella burnetii - Q fever!
  • obl IC, 2 forms like chlamydia, great resistance
  • Q comes from query fever, meaning unknown fever. Occurance is underest. Often, asympt frewuently
  • infection widespread in ru herds! Has a wide host range, but mainly signs in ru, and humans are imp too bc zoonosis (susceptible!).
  • Aetiology similar to chlamydia (small(infectiouus) cell variant, and large (met. Active) - inside phagolysosomes ic it inhibits maturation of phagolysosome - cant be lysed!
  • Most imp sign is the abortion, seen most in small ru, not so often in cow (dog).
  • Typiical pm lesion is haemorrh necrotic placentitis in foetus. (We dont see lesions in cow)
114
Q

Coxiella pathogenesis

A

We see a natural focal infection, where we have maintaining host (ru most imp) + ticks - disease circulate btw them (like lyme disease!) the tick has a special characteristic as a biological vector, the virulence can incr in next gen.

  • spread by discharges that are aerosolized, dust, ticks.
  • humans most imp is excretions, milk.
  • Dogs can eat.
  • Repl –> blood –> lung, liver (this repl lead to death), lymphoid tissue, udder, uterus.
  • The immune system kicks the bacteria out of blood, hides in gut, udder! and foetus.
115
Q

Rickettsia ORDER (not fam) general

A

Rickettsia and anaplasma family
Similar to coxiella. Obl ic, narrhow host range, poor resistance - ticks, G- rod. (biol and mech)!

Natural focal infection - wild living and ticks usually. Rickettsia fam is mostly human importance with cell wall (peptidoglycan and LPS), while for us anaplasmosis (anaplasma, ehrlichia, neorickettsia genus) most imp. Due cell wall missing (mycoplasma!) we cant use gram stain, giemsa is used!

116
Q

Rickettsia pathogenesis

A

BITE -> Ln -> septicemia

Ehrichia:
lymphoid - immunosuppression, endothel - anemia

BO anaplasma
A marginale, centrale: RBC
A bovis: monocytes

BO/EQ: A phagocyticum: granulocytes

Neorickettsia: monocytes

117
Q

What are basic epi rules for prevention?

A
  • closed population,
  • separation of different age groups
  • All in all out if possible (su, av)
  • immunization
  • import from free herd
  • quarantine
  • regular serological monitoring
118
Q

What are basic eradication methods

A

o 1) Replacing: quick, safe, but expensive

o 2) Raising free generation: time-consuming, vaccination of whole herd, seclusion of calves on day 3, after colostrum consumption, isolated raising

o 3) Selection: remove seropositive. DIVA is helpful to ddx vaxed/nonvaxed.
- Under 10% remove +tive animals.
- Over 10% seropos selection with the help of marker vaccines
o Basic immunization of whole herd with marker vaccine
o Repetition in every 6 months - reduced virus shedding frequency
and intensity
o Isolation of offspring from the adults, vaccinations in every 6 months -> eg heifers
at parturition are already atleast 4 times vaccinated
- Regular control: repeated, discriminative ELISA (DIVA)
- DIVA - when sero+ is low in no., we remove them from herd. Then we have a vaxed free herd. Then we stop vax = becoming seroneg.

Maintenance of virus-free status: closed farm, virus-free semen and bull, regular controls

119
Q

Facultative vs obligate pathogen, what influences the infection?

A

Facultative:
Disease is influenced by virulence of the agent, resistance of the host and nature & severity of predisp. factors

Obligate:
Balance btw the host and the agent determines the course of infection and severity of signs (eg. TB exudative vs. Proliferative infections, generalization or latent…)
- can only replicate in host, but the agent may still have good resistance to survive outside host!
