Study Notes
Antigenic Variation
- Antigenic variation of adhesive pilus is an important virulent strategy for bacteria to evade host immune responses.
Epidemiological Factors
- Epidemiological factors that determine the prevalence and incidence of infectious diseases may include all factors, except laboratory diagnosis.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases
- All pathogens that cause sexually transmitted diseases, except viruses, are bacterial.
Adherence and Colonization
- Adherence and colonization factors of bacterial pathogens may include pili, fimbriae, and capsules.
Immune Avoidance
- All bacterial virulence factors responsible for immune avoidance, except IgA protease, facilitate evasion of the host immune system.
Macrophage Survival
- Mycobacterium tuberculosis can survive and replicate within macrophages by inhibiting phagosome-lysosome fusion.
Invasiveness and Spread
- Virulence factors that function for invasiveness and spread from the initial site of infection include flagella, capsules, and enzymes.
Phagocyte Mobilization
- Virulence factors that are involved in the inhibition of phagocyte mobilization include all, except interferon.
Bacterial Exotoxins
- All bacterial exotoxins, except enterotoxins, are neurotoxins.
Endotoxins
- Endotoxins originate from the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, particularly from the lipopolysaccharide layer.
