commensals and pathogens pathogenesis

QuestionAnswer
What relationship which dissimilar organisms exist with close union Symbiosis
Relationship which both organisms get benefit from. Mutualism
Relationship which is beneficial for the organism but has no effect on the host. Commercialism
Relationship which the organism has a deleterious effect on the host Parasitism
an organism always associated with disease. never be normal flora. strict pathogen
an organism that does not cause disease in the normal setting, but can establish disease if introduced into other settings opportunistic pathogen
examples of strict pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis neisseria gonorrhoeal Francisella tularensis
factors determine pathogenic status.(factors make the opportunistic pathogen pathogenic) the place the bacteria are status of host (immune status, sick, medication, surgery)
How bacteria get in our body? trauma or hair follicles of skin. anatomical orifices
How bacteria evade body protective mechanism? huge Lipopolysaccharide Agressins
List kinds of agressins capsule surface proteins and carbohydrates enzymes toxins
what is agressins? substances produced by bacteria that allow them to avoid or circumvent host defense mechanisms
The order to get disease Exposure, infection, colonization, disease
what is this status? condition of being subject to some detrimental effect or harmful condition exposure
what is this status? state produced by the establishment of infective agent in or on a suitable host infection
what is this status? transient or permanent state of organism presence that does not affect normal body function colonization
what is this status? interaction between organisms and host leading to a pathogenic process within the host disease
What is called the protein that facilitate adhesion? adhesins
List 4 that facilitate adhesion when bacteria is attempting colonization adhesins lipoteichoic acid F protein Biolifms
When bacteria try to enter the cell of host, what mechanism they use? Type III secretion device
What are bacterial products that directly harm tissue or trigger destructive biologic activities?(general term) toxins
What are the protein which mostly gram-positive bacteria give off to alter a function or kill the cell? exotoxins
Tell the function of each potion of bipartile toxins B: binds to specific cell surface A: interacts with target and cause trouble
What is called for that bacterial cell wall components act as a signal of infection and activate the host's protective systems? Endotoxins
Which toxins are specific for gram-negative? Endotoxins
What cellular substance contribute for endotoxins? lipopolisaccharide
What substances cause gram-positive bacterial endotoxin-like responses. peptigoglycan, teichoic acid, lipoteichoic acid
What is called that protein toxin that binds T-cell and MHCII antigens. Superantigens
What is caused by superantigens? It binds T-cell and MHCII and stimulate the production of cytokines causing "cytokine storm"
What symptoms will appear by cytokine storm? capillary leakage, tissue edema, organ failure, shock, death
What is called when human body immune system cause symptoms Immunopathogenesis
How our immune system hurt our body? Body reacts to bacteria by releasing CRP and MBLs that bind to bacterial surface and act as opsonins. But MBLs are also pyrogenic and produced WBCs can also hurt our body.
List the kind of immunopathogenesis Cytokine storm granuloma formation autoimmune system
What is antisepsis? disinfection of living tissue
Who is the father of antisepsis? Semmelweis

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
