question
Virulence factor and MOA for: Meningococcal meningitis
answer
1. polysaccharide capsule (only in N. Meningitis NOT GC): antiphagocytic. 13 serogroups (A,B,C,Y, W135 most common). We don’t have a vaccine for B so you can get meningitis even with the vaccine. 2. LOS- lipooligosaccharide (no O antigen) - endotoxin: causes immune response (cytokine storm). 3. Pili: Attachment to nasopharyngeal mucosa

question
Virulence factor and MOA for: Tuberculosis
answer
Facultative intracellular Virulence dependent on ability to survive and grow in host cells. Makes no toxins but when engulfed by macrophages, bacterial sulfolipids inhibit the fusion of phagocytic vesicles with lysosomes. MOA Inhibits fusion of phagosome/lysosome.

question
Virulence factor and MOA for: Traveler’s diarrhea (ETEC)
answer
Enterotoxins: 1. Heat stabile toxin (ST) --> causes increase in cellular cGMP. 2. Heat labile toxin (LT)- essentially identical to cholera toxin which --> causes increase in cellular cAMP MOA: Prolonged hypersecretion of chloride ions and water by the intestinal mucosal cells and inhibits the reabsorption of Naahyperosmotic diarrhea

Virulence factor and MOA for: Anthrax (B. Anthracis)
answer
Virulence factors are: 1. Anthrax Toxin has both (A) – LF --- lethal factor and -- EF — edema factor as well as (B) - PA – protective Ag 2. Glutamic acid Capsule MOA of Virulence factor 1: anthrax toxin – increases intracellular cAMP --> severe edema (widened mediastinum, etc. ). MOA of virulence factor 2: antiphagocytic
