No sterol
26
Process of protein synthesis in prokaryotes & eukaryotes are same or different?
Same process
27
Eukaryotes ribosome subunit is- 40S & 60S or 30S & 50S?
40S & 60S
28
Prokaryotes ribosome subunit is 40S & 60S or 30S & 50S?
30S & 50S
29
Which drug target bacterial PROTEIN synthesis?
Tetracyclines, Macrolides (eg Ery), Oxazolidinone (eg Lnz), Chloramphenicol (Cam)
30
Which drugs target bacterial replication?
Quinolones target DNA gyrase | Rifampicin targets RNA polymerase
31
Fungi are prokaryotes or Eukaryotes?
Eukaryotes
32
Who are bigger Bacteria or fungi?
Fungi is bigger than bacteria
33
Does fungi have Nucleous, Mitochondria, Endoplasmic reticulum.
Yes. They have a nucleus and cellular organelles i.e. mitochondria & endoplasmic reticulum.
34
Yeasts are unicellular or multicellular (they are fungi)?
Candida Unicellular (Moulds) Micro fungi Multicellular (mushrooms) Macro-fungi
35
Which way fungi cell Division occur?
Mitotic cell division (means A parent cell produces two daughter cells)
36
Fungi has Cell wall?
Yes, they have cell wall
37
Do fungi have extra chromosomal DNA?
No extra-chromosomal DNA
38
Fungi cell membrane has?
Ergosterol (Ergosterol is the major product of sterol biosynthesis in fungi)
39
Fungi Does not have any cholesterol?
No cholesterol
40
Which drugs Inhibit STEROL synthesis in fungi cell membrane?
Azoles and allylamines inhibit cell membrane
41
Which drug Influence cell membrane permeability after binding with ergosterol in fungi?
(polyene anti-fungal e.g. amphotericin B)
42
Fungi Cell wall is complex network of?
Proteins and carbohydrates
43
What provide strength to fungi’s cell wall?
Glucan & chitin
44
What is Glucan synthesis inhibitors?
Echinocandins (Eechinocandins are a class of antifungal drugs)
45
What is Chitin synthase inhibitors?
Nikkomycin and Polyoxins
46
Which Class of drugs work as anti-metabolites in Fungi?
Flucytosine
47
Bacteria and Fungi DNA and protein synthesis are similar?
Yes, Similar Bacteria and Fungi
48
Each day Inhale bacteria/day?
590 000/day
49
Microbial Infections depends on?
Host factors | Microbial factor
50
What are the Risk factors for Microbial infection?
``` Age Pregnancy Poor Nutrition Immunosuppressive drugs Surgery Stress ```
51
Release of EXOTOXINS (An exotoxin is a toxin secreted by bacteria/virulence factors) mean?
``` Neurotoxins (destructive to nerve tissue) Cytotoxins (Killer T-cells and destroy infected cells) and Enterotoxins (targets the intestines) ```
52
Pathogenesis of infection by Pathogenic microbes how they work in vivo?
Gain entry & establish Evade the immune response Replicate, maybe invade
53
Host mediated pathogenesis
Release of toxic cytokines> inflammatory mediators> immune mediated killing> Finally kill cells
54
Cytokine
interferon, interleukin, and growth factors, which are secreted by certain cells of the immune system and have an effect on other cells.
55
Microbial Infection & Disease depends on?
Microbial Factor and Host factor
56
When we usually use Antimicrobials?
When immune response cannot control infection then we use antimicrobials
57
What is Acute?
Symptom appear and disease runs its course quickly
58
What is Chronic?
Disease progress slowly and persist with long period
59
Primary mean for Infection?
First sign of infection in healthy host
60
Systemic mean?
Pathogen progressively affects more than one organ by blood.
61
Exotoxins vs Endotoxin
``` Exo= produce by gram positive bacteria Endo= produce by gram negative bacteria ```
62
What causes Fever?
A response to LPS Lipopolysaccharide (endotoxin) also known as an ‘exogenous pyrogen’ Stimulates immune system to release soluble mediators (pyrogenic mediators & pyrogens) Causes fever (For understanding )The mechanism of fever appears to be a defensive reaction by the body against infectious disease. When bacteria or viruses invade the body and cause tissue injury, one of the immune system's responses is to produce pyrogens
63
If fever persist what temperature may change?
An increase in temp of 1- 4o C
64
A young child has how many fevers in a year?
3 to 6
65
Bacteria reproduce by ?
Bianary fussion and grow logarithmic rate.
66
Sulfonamides inhibit
DHF
67
TMP is
DHFR inhibitor which has higher affinity for bacterial enzyme.
68
What is the mechanism of fever?
exogenous Pyrogen gets entry to create a response to LPS (endotoxins) which stimulats the immune system to release soluble mediators (endogenous pyrogens ) as a result immunity can not compete and cause fever.
