Question
Answer
Capsulated organisms work by ____   show
🗑
show S. aureus. Binds to Fc region of Ig, disrupting opsonization and phagocytosis.  
🗑
show Enzyme that cleaves IgA.  
🗑
show S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, Neisseria  
🗑
M protein. Secreted by ___.   show
🗑
show Exotoxin= polypeptide, Endotoxin =LPS  
🗑
show Exotoxin=plasmid, bacteriophage, Endotoxin= bacterial chromosome  
🗑
____ has vaccine available only   show
🗑
Typical diseases with exotoxin   show
🗑
show Meningococcemia, sepsis by gram negative bacteria  
🗑
show Superantigens bind directly to MHC II and T-cell receptor simultaneously, activating large numbers of T cells to stimulate release of IFN-gamma and IL-2.  
🗑
Two bugs with superantigen toxins   show
🗑
Superantigen of S. aureus is called ____ and produces ___ with the symptoms of ____,____, ___.   show
🗑
S. aureus also produces enterotoxins that cause ___ and ____.   show
🗑
Superantigen of S. aureus is called ____ and produces ___ with the symptoms of ____,____, ___.   show
🗑
show Food poisoning and exfoliatin (scalded skin syndrome)  
🗑
Superantigen of S. aureus is called ____ and produces ___ with the symptoms of ____,____, ___.   show
🗑
S. aureus also produces enterotoxins that cause ___ and ____.   show
🗑
S. pyogenes produces a ____ exotoxin. This toxin is called ____ and produces ___.   show
🗑
ADP ribosylating A-B toxins work by ____. B functions by ___. A functions by ____.   show
🗑
3 bugs that use ADP ribosylating A-B toxins are ____,____, ____, ____.   show
🗑
C. diptheriae produces an ___ type of exotoxin. It works by ___. It produces ____.   show
🗑
show C. diptheriae  
🗑
V. cholerae produces an ___ type of exotoxin. It works by ____. Produces ____.   show
🗑
E. coli produces an ___ type of exotoxin. It works by ____. Produces ____.   show
🗑
show ADP-ribosylating toxin. It works by increasing cAMP by inhibiting Gi. Causes whooping caugh, inhibits chemokine receptor, causing lymphocytosis.  
🗑
show Alpha toxin. Causes gas gangrene. Get double zone of hemolysis on blood agar.  
🗑
show Blocks release of inhibitory neurotransmitters (GABA and glycine); causes lockjaw.  
🗑
C. Botulinum produces an ___ type of exotoxin. it works by ___ and produces ____.   show
🗑
show Edema factor type of adenylate cyclase  
🗑
show Shiga toxin (also produced by ETEC). Cleaves host cell rRNA (inactivates 60s); also enhances cytokine release. Causes HUS.  
🗑
show Streptolysin O is a hemolysin. antigen for ASO antibody which is used in diagnosis of rheumatic fever  
🗑
show V. cholerae, B. anthracis, E. coli (Heat labile), B. Pertussis  
🗑
show By activating Gs  
🗑
show By inactivating Gi (allowing cAMP to increase). Pertussis also promotes lymphocytosis by inhibiting chemokine receptors.  
🗑
show ABCDE. ShigA-like toxin, Botulinum toxin, Cholera toxin, Diptheria toxin, Erythorgenic toxin of S. pyogenes  
🗑
What are organisms get resistance via transformation?   show
🗑
Lysogenic acquired toxins   show
🗑
Toxin is derived from a plasmid   show
🗑
