Lecture 21 - Bacterial invasion Flashcards

(18 cards)

1
Q

list the 3 definitions of invasiveness

A
  1. enter, grow and reproduce in host then spread
  2. Entry and survival within phagocytes
  3. enter non-phagocytic host cells

Q

how do bacteria enter/grow/reproduce/spread? give 4 examples

A
  • spreading factors that alter/dmg tissue
    1. collagenase by clostridium
    2. fibrinolysin by staph
    3. hyaluronidase by strep
    4. DNase by all = destroys DNA and lowers viscosity of exudate for motility

Q

how do phagocytes kill bacteria and what 3 ways can bacteria evade it?

A
  • phagosome fuses with enzymatic lysosome
    1. resistant to phagolysosome
    2. prevent fusion
    3. escape into cytoplasm

Q

what happens when bacteria invade non-phagocytes? how do bacteria force uptake?

A
  • invasion = colonise mucosa, translocate to deeper tissue, systemic
  • force = invasins rearrange cytoskeleton = pseudopod

Q

explain zipper invasion and list 2 examples

A

Q

explain trigger invasion and list 2 examples

A

Q

describe the 7 step process of listeria zipper invasion

A
  1. internalin InIB binds host Mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (Met) = cell survival
  2. signal transduction to actin related protein (ARP) 2/3 complex
  3. ARP 2/3 = G and F actin assembly for uptake
  4. listeriolysin O haemolysin lyses vacuoles = escape to cytoplasm
  5. ActA activates ARP 2/3 for de/polymerising actin into tails for motility
  6. push into adj cell then bud off into vacuole
  7. lyse vacuole etc for cell-cell spread

Q

Describe the 8 step trigger invasion of shigella

A
  1. microfold (M) cells take up and translocate
  2. endocytosed by resident macrophages
  3. escape phagosome and induce macrophage death = release
  4. induce actin polymerisation = engulfed into enterocytes basolaterally
  5. lyse vacuole = escape into cytoplasm
  6. actin motility like listeria
  7. push into adj cell then bud off
  8. lyse vacuole for cell-cell spread

Q

describe the 4 step trigger invasion of salmonella

A
  1. T3SS = membrane ruffling and uptake
  2. vacuole translocation by host microtubules
  3. released into underlying tissue
  4. phagocytosed, prevent fusion, disseminate

Q

compare salmonella from shigella (4 points)

A
  1. invade from lumen not M cells
  2. survive in phagocytes not lyse them
  3. disseminate not cell-cell spread
  4. strong inflammation

Q

list the 5 functions of the effector proteins by T3SS in shigella

A
  1. IpaB adhesin binds CD44 on basolateral colon epithelia
  2. IpaB as T3SS tip complex
  3. IpaC interacts with B to insert in host PM as pore
  4. IpaC, IpgB1 B2 and D = actin polymerisation
  5. IpaA = actin depolymerisation
17
Q

describe the similarities of listeria and shigella in 1 specific aspect

A
  • haemolysins for after escaping phagosome
  • listeriolysin O = binds cholesterol version
  • IpaB/IpaC = pore forming version
18
Q

compare listeria, shigella and salmonella

A
  • listeria = zipper by invasins, actin motility
  • shigella = trigger by T3SS, actin motility
  • salmonella = trigger by T3SS, intracellular in phagocytes
