HOST–MICROBE RELATIONSHIPS AND DISEASE PROCESSES. CHAPTER 14. Symbioses. Mutualism- Both parties benefit example E. coli in gut Commensalism- One party benefits, other does not. example Staph Aureus on skin. Photo of mixed bacteria on skin. Symbioses. Parasitism Opportunism.
E N D
Symbioses • Mutualism- Both parties benefit example E. coli in gut • Commensalism- One party benefits, other does not example Staph Aureus on skin Photo of mixed bacteria on skin
Symbioses • Parasitism • Opportunism One party benefits, other harmed Pinworms on anus
Infection and Disease • Contamination-organisms present • Infection- organisms multiply • Disease- disturbance of health
Pathogenicity Concepts • Pathogenicity- capacity to produce disease • Virulence/Avirulence - intensity of disease E. coli k12 nonpathogenic E. coli O157:H7 = pathogenic
Normal Microflora • Populations • Resident • Transient
probiotics - Extend normal flora to outcompete pathogens
Koch’s Postulates • 1. specific causative agent must be observed • 2. The agent must be isolated and grown in pure culture. • 3. Hosts must get the same disease when inoculated. • 4. The agent must be reisolated and show to be the same causative agent.
Kinds of Disease • Infectious/Non-infectious-caused by organism • Communicable/Non-communicable Pneumonia / Emphysema Can be transmitted or not HIV / ulcer
How Microbes Cause Disease • Direct Action- adherence, colonization, enzyme action • Bacterial Toxins- exotoxins, endotoxins, • Cytopathic Effects - hemolysis, loss of membrane integrity Cholera, botulism Salmonella, Staph
Hemolysis Alpha-green halo hemoglobin oxidation Beta - complete hemolysis agar clearing Gamma - no hemolysis or discoloration Blood agar with 3 organisms
Botox Excitation signals from the central nervous system Muscle Botulism Botulinum toxin, , blocks release of A, inhibiting contraction Normal Acetylcholine (A) induces contraction of muscle fibers
Inhibitory Interneuron Tetanus Excitation signals from the central nervous system Tetanus toxin Muscle Tetanus Tetanus toxin binds to inhibitory interneurons, preventing release of glycine (G) and relaxation of muscle
Sign Symptom Syndrome Sequelae Acute Chronic Subacute Latent Vocabulary Terms
Local infection Focal infection Systemic infection Septicemia Bacteremia Viremia Vocabulary Terms (2)
Primary infection Secondary infection Superinfection infection with another virus (discuss HIV and CMV) Mixed infection Inapparent (subclinical) infection Vocabulary Terms (3)
Incubation Prodromal Invasive Decline Convalescence Infectious Disease Stages Migraine example
Control of Infectious Disease • Drugs • Immunization • Sanitization • Future Challenges
Protection from disease Removal of particles including microorganisms by rapid passage of air over cilia in nasopharynx Lysozyme in tears and other secretions dissolves cell walls Mucus, cilia lining trachea suspend and move microorganisms out of the body Skin is a physical barrier, produces antimicrobial fatty acids, and its normal flora inhibit pathogen colonization Mucus and phagocytes in lungs prevent colonization Blood and lymph proteins inhibit microbial growth Stomach acidity (pH 2) inhibits microbial growth Rapid pH change inhibits microbial growth Normal flora compete with pathogens Normal flora compete with pathogens in the gut Flushing of urinary tract prevents colonization
