Q

Typhoid Fever Pathogenes 9 steps

A
  1. microbes gain entrance
  2. survive acid and bile
    3.attach to m cells
  3. induce endocytosis
    5, taken up by macrophages
    6.travel lymphatics
    7.initiate phagocytosis
  4. released ito blood stream
  5. Repeat RES circuit

30
Q

What antigenic factor does Yersenia have?

A

F1 factor

31
Q

Where does Yersenia Grow?

A

Fleas and Mammals

Facultative Intracellular

32
Q

Virulence factors of Yersinia

Biofilm synthesis
Plasminogen-activating protease
F1 protein
Type III secretory system

33
Q

What is the function of the F1 protein

A

Fimbrial capsule forming

V and W antigens

34
Q

When does F1 do its job,

A

Has to be silent to form bubo,

Spreads during dissemination
