paratyphoid
Typhoid Epidemiology
Endemic, poor quality water,
Typhoid reservoirs
HUMANS ONLLY, school age and young adults
Typhoid transmission
Fecal oral
Innate resistance
Gastric acid
CFTR heterozygote
IgA
Normal Intestinal Flora
Acquired Resistance
circulating IgM or IgG
CD4 or CD 8 Sensitized
Sal Typhi Etiology
Gram negative bacilli
Motile
facultative anaerobe
regular medium
Sal Typhi Characteristics
H2S producer, non lactose fermenter
Hekoten–diff lactose vs non lactose
McConkey = clear colonies
Infect macrophages
Typhi Virulence Factors
Invasive w/ Type III O antigen H antigen-- flagella LPS SPI -1 and SPI-2 path islands Vi antigen Fimbriae- m cells
Typhoid Fever Pathogenes 9 steps
- microbes gain entrance
- survive acid and bile
3.attach to m cells - induce endocytosis
5, taken up by macrophages
6.travel lymphatics
7.initiate phagocytosis - released ito blood stream
- Repeat RES circuit
typhoid and peyers patches
Travel to ileum, find cftr gene of M cells
Induces BME or cell ruffling
Activates Type III sec inside phagolysosome
Where does Sal Typhi reside
Macrophages can cause rupture if high enough colony
Gall Bladder Enteric Fever
Predisposes, logn term carriage
Second INvasion of Peyers patches
Reseeding from bile
Hyperplastic
Necrotic
Clinical Manifestations week one
fever pattern, high in day gone by moring or
rise rapidly
• bacteremia
•bradycardia
