Leprosy

A

For leprosy just know there are

many oral manifestations

17
Q

Bacterial infections of salivary glands are mostly?

A

often Staphylococcus

18
Q

Diseases or situations associated with

oral bacteria or their components

A
Infective endocarditis
Disseminated intravascular coagulation
Nephritis
Rheumatoid arthritis
Behçet􀀁s disease (chronic
inflammatory disorder with oral
ulcers)
Atherosclerosis
Low-birth-weight infants
19
Q

Infective endocarditis

Strep adhere to platelets through?

A

adhesions and platelettes

20
Q

Aggrestion of platelets requires crosslinking of?

A

Fibrogen molecules

21
Q

Heat shock proteins (HSPs

A

Microbial HSPs are very similar to human HSPs that are normally shielded
within cells. Antibodies elicited by bacterial HSPs can cross-react with
exposed human HSPs (e.g. present in damaged tissue). If immune
complexes are deposited in the arterial wall (atherosclerosis), joints
(arthritis), or mucous membranes (Behçet􀀁s disease), HSP 􀀂mimicry􀀃 can
contribute to systemic disease.

22
Q

Autorecognition induced by oral microorganisms

A

Streptococcus sanguinis express an epitope within PAAP (plateletaggregation
associated protein), which is similar to the arthritogenic epitope
of type II collagen. In a murine arthritis model, S. sanguinis infection
exacerbates arthritis.
Interestingly, exposure of neonatal mice to PAAP+ S. sanguinis inhibited
development of autoimmune arthritis in the adult (early exposure
protective?).

23
Q

TNF alpha and IL-1beta enter …………and induce the ………… to produce acute phase eractants such a ….CRP

A

TNF alpha and IL-1beta enter circulation and induce the Liver to produce acute phase reactants such a CRP causing exaberation of existing diseases.

24
Q

The mucosal barrier

Contains

A

Toll-like receptors
TLRs recognize PAMPs (Pathogen-
Associated Molecular Patterns)

25
Q

TLR2

A

Lipoarabinomannan, peptidoglycan, mannan

26
Q

TLR4

A

Lipopolysaccharide, lipoteichoic acid

27
Q

TLR6

A

Lipopolysaccharide

28
Q

TLR10

A

Lipopolysaccharide

29
Q

Innate host defenses
Oral surfaces
Defensins:

A
Small peptides (proteins) that form
pores in bacterial membranes,
disrupting cells.
HBD-1 (human b-defensin 1) is the main
defensin produced by epithelial cells.
Bacterial membranes are susceptible
due to their high phospholipid content.

Q
Defensins
Calprotectin

......................(.................) is the main
defensin produced by epithelial cells.

31
Q

Innate host defenses
Oral surfaces
Desquamation
Adherent mucin layer

A
Mucins attached to mucosal surface
form a selectively permeable layer (a
mucus coat analogous to a bacterial
capsule). Mucins are glycoproteins and
carbo-hydrates portion form a sticky
slippery gel.
MG1 and MG2 are mucins in oral cavity.
32
Q

Commensal oral microbiota

A

Endogenous bacteria keep out new bacteria, and the stimulate immune system. But
they can cause disease when the balance shifts.

33
Q

Innate host defenses

Fluid phase: saliva

A

0.5 - 1.5 liters per day secreted into the mouth
MG1 and MG2 aggregate and clear oral
microbes via lectin-like interactions

34
Q

Lysozyme

A

Degrades peptidoglycan by cutting bond

between NAG and NAM (muramidase)

35
Q

Mucosal lymphocytes
resting memory cells awaiting reexposure; their role upon
reexposure is mainly cytokine production

A

Lamina propria lymphocytes

36
Q

Mucosal lymphocytes
: surveillance for pathogens and removal of stressed and infected
epithelial cells

A

Intraepithelial lymphocytes

37
Q

flushes gingival crevice, removing microbes and products. Health vs inflammation: more
serum-like composition during inflammation (vs tissue-like composition)

A

Gingival crevicular fluid

38
Q

IgG, IgA, and IgM

GCF is major source of …………. in oral cavity: 95% are …………….

A

IgG, IgA, and IgM

GCF is major source of leukocytes in oral cavity: 95% are neutrophils
