Neisseria is Gram-negative bacteria Obligate aerobic
Neisseria Habitat Upper respiratory tract and mouth
Neisseria pathogens N. gonorrhoeae N. meningitidis
Neisseria virulence factors Fimbriae: Adhesion Porins ('Por' proteins) Endotoxin: Lipooligosaaccharide (LOS)
Antigenic switching surface antigens change from generation to generation caused by multiple genetic mechanisms (cơ chế di truyền) important to avoid the host immune response
Clinical case Previously healthy 18-year-old man He presented to the emergency department with: Acute onset of fever and headache His temperature was elevated (40°C) He was tachycardic (140 beats/min) He was hypotensive (blood pressure 70/40 mmHg) It is Neisseria meningitidis
N. meningitidis Virulence factors The most important are the endotoxin and the capsule Polysaccharide capsule
N. meningitidis. Enter Nasopharynx: Usually by droplets Patients may have both: Meningococcemia and Meningitis
Acute purulent meningitis progresses very quickly Mortality is almost 100% in untreated begins suddenly Clinical findings - Intense headache - Fever - Neck stiffness - Low level of consciousness Classical signs -Brudzinski's sign -Kernig's sign Complications (Biến chứng
Meningococcemia Scattered skin petechiae Effect of the endotoxin (LOS) Complications (Biến chứng) Amputations
N. meningitidis. Antibiotic treatment and prevention Third-generation cephalosporins: Ceftriaxone or cefotaxime Vaccines: Conjugated meningococcal polysaccharide vaccines (serogroups)
N. gonorrhoeae grows in chocolate agar (blood) not have a true capsule cover with syalic acid Always pathogen Sexual transmission
Gonococcal infection in males Urethritis is the most common Symptoms -Urethral discharge -Dysuria Local complications: Epididymitis and/or prostatitis
Gonococcal infection in females Cervicitis is the most common Symptoms -Mucopurulent discharge -Vaginal pruritus -Low abdominal pain Local complications: Inflammatory Disease (PID)
The family Enterobacteriaceae found in nature as free-living bac Glucose fermentation Oxidase negative Facultative anaerobic Catalase positive They grow easily on MacConkey agar
Antigenic structure Antigens in the surface - O antigen - K antigen - H antigen
O antigen Sugar component antigen of LPS
K antigen Capsular antigen Some are polysaccharides, others are proteins
H antigen Flagellar antigen Proteins
The most common diseases are Urinary tract infections (UTI) Acute gastroenteritis (with diarrhea)
Escherichia coli Lactose fermenters Many distinct O, K, H antigens Different types of fimbriae Some produce exotoxins
Enterotoxigenic (ETEC) Toxin mostly in children in developing countries
Enteroaggregative (EAEC) toxins & Adhesion Infects primarily young children
Enteroinvasive (EIEC) invasins
Enteropathogenic (EPEC) Adhesion Children in developing countries
Shiga-toxin (STEC) produce EC very danger
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) usually caused by intestinal E. coli
One of the most common causes of neonatal meningitis Escherichia coli (The other one is Streptococcus agalactiae)
Meningitis Special virulence factor K1 capsular polysaccharide
Shigella One of the most common causes of infectious diarrhea
Shigella is the Facultative intracellular pathogen (Tác nhân gây bệnh nội bào)
Shigella Virulence factors The common from Enterobacteriaceae Invasins Shiga-toxin (Stx) Produced by S. dysenteriae type 1
Invasiveness is the most important pathogenic mechanism, and NOT Shiga toxin
Shiga toxin Produced by -Some E. coli (mainly STEC) -Shigella strains
Dysentery is Diarrhea + leukocytes in stool + erythrocytes in stool caused either by: Invasive Shigella Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) Transmission: Fecal-oral route (Person to person) It appears in epidemic outbreaks (dịch bệnh bùng phát) spread quickly
Salmonella Important public health problem throughout the world Transmission: By the fecal-oral route (animals/humans >> humans)
Salmonella Virulence factors Capsular Vi antigen invasins Invasion is the most important pathogenic event
Salmonella Clinical diseases 'Salmonellosis', gastroenteritis - The most common Typhoid fever - The most severe
Salmonellosis food-borne disease Produced by non-typhoidal Salmonella is the most common Clinical findings: Diarrhea...
Typhoid fever also a food-borne disease is a systemic disease Caused by typhoidal Salmonella Transmitted only from person to person Mortality is high
Yersinia Zoonotic infections
Y. enterocolitica and Y. pseudotuberculosis cause yersiniosis (acute enteritis with diarrhea)
Y. pestis causes plague
Common virulence factors to all Yersinia pYV virulence plasmid LPS
Yersinia enterocolitica & Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Food-borne disease Clinical diseases - Acute enteritis • The most common form of the infection • Self-limited - Syndrome that mimics acute appendicitis • Fever and severe abdominal pain in the right lower quadrant - Reactive arthritis
Yersinia pestis (plague) zoonosis: Transmitted to humans by a vector (lây từ một loài bọ Xenopsylla cheopis)
Pneumonic plague is transmitted human to human by the respiratory route Bubonic plague >> Bacteremia >> Pneumonic plague
Bubonic plague inoculation after a bite (flea) Fever Painful 'bubo' (inflamed lymph node)
Opportunistic Enterobacteriaceae All of them can cause urinary tract infections Common after hospital manipulation Polysaccharide capsule Fimbriae (pili) for adhesion Non-motile
Klebsiella Invasive liver abscess syndrome caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae Most patients are from Taiwan
Klebsiella Risk factors Related with K1 and K2 serotypes: K1 is the most important
Vibrio, Aeromonas, Plesiomonas Common features with Enterobacteriaceae are oxidase-positive in nature - Mostly in water environments
Vibrio Gram-negative rods Highly motile
V. cholerae O1 All produce cholera toxin
V. cholerae O139 It produces cholera toxin and a polysaccharide capsule
Current pandemic is produced by V. cholerae O1 'El Tor' biotype
Cholera is NOT an invasive infection (nhiễm trùng xâm lấn) Caused by the cholera toxin produces the most dramatic and severe watery diarrhea known Food-borne disease Transmitted by the fecal-oral route Very high mortality
Cholerae Treatment fluid replacement for dehydration Single dose azithromycin is the preferred therapy
fluid replacement for dehydration Single dose azithromycin is the preferred therapy Very important in Asia Food-borne disease - Gastroenteritis: seafood
