How do bacteria cause disease? a. They release toxins that kill cells directly b. They insert their genetic material into host cells and use the host cell's organelles to reproduce c. They burst out of their host cells and cause their host cells to die d. Both a and b e. Both b and c
one bacterial pathogen can cause symptoms of gastroenteritis in 2 hours after ingestion of contaminated food and another pathogen requires 3 days to cause disease. how do the pathogenic mechanisms of these bacteria differ that explains the difference in incubation time.
14. One bacterial pathogen can cause symptoms of gastroenteritis in 2 hours after ingestion of contaminated food and another pathogen requires 3 days to cause disease. How do the pathogenic mechanisms of these bacteria differ that explains the difference in incubation time.?
4. In this chapter, we have studied a number of toxins that are responsible for many of the disease symptoms associated with potent pathogens. For each of the following toxins, describe the mechanism of action on host cells in terms of the structure of the toxin, how it gains access to its target, what it does to its target, and the outcome. A. DT B. Shiga toxin C. E. coli heat-stable toxin D. Cholera toxin E. Superantigen F. YopE G....
What is Alzhemier's Disease? What is the cause, symptoms and treatments for Alzhemier's Disease?
Topic is AIDS 1.) Where in the body (what tissues, organ, cells) does the AIDS pathogen affect? 2.) What damage does the pathogen inflict? 3.) How is this damage inflicted? Is there direct chemical damage? Is it a toxin produced? Does the immune system response cause damage? 4.) What is the time sequence of the disease (length of incubation, prodrome, illness, decline, and convalescence? 5.) What are the major signs and symptoms?
Describe 3 specific characteristics of a pathogen that would allow it to cause chronic disease. explain how each characteristics would allow infection to be chronic rather than acute
Provide two examples of how the immune response to bacterial antigens or toxins can cause severe disease and pathology. For each example, name the disease, the bacterial species, the corresponding bacterial toxin or antigen associated with the disease, and the immune response driving the pathology.
discuss the nutritional principles that either contribute to this disease (rickets) and how nutrition is used to control or alleviate the symptoms of this disease.
Respiratory syncytial virus. 1,Symptoms – blood work, fever, all major sign and symptoms 2, Tests for detection – serological and DNA based (also includes V, B, P, G+/G-) 3,Pathogenesis – virulence factors, toxins spores etc how it damages our bodies 4,Immune reaction – standard innate as well as specific humoral response appropriate to the pathogen 5, Epidemiology – where is it common, among whom, risk factors, vectors and reservoirs 6,Treatment – common resistances and alternative treatments – mechanism of action
