Important features of defense against infectious agents
Establishment, course and outcome of infection depend on ability of pathogen to evade or resist immune response
Mediated by the mechanisms of both innate and adaptive immunity
Specialization of the immune system allows optimalresponse to each type of microbe
Tissue injury and disease are often result of immune response to pathogens
![Page 4: Immunity to microbes (mechanisms of defense against bacterial infections)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813ad2550346895da3034d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Bacteria
- outside cell (extracellular bacteria)
Unicellular prokaryotes
Survive and replicate:
- inside cell (intracellular bacteria)
- induction of inflammation
Induce disease by:
- production of toxins
![Page 5: Immunity to microbes (mechanisms of defense against bacterial infections)](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56813ad2550346895da3034d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Extracellular bacteria
Replicate outside cell (in circulation, tissues and lumens)
Induce inflammation (often with pus formation)
- e.g. staphylococci and streptococci
Produce toxins:
- exotoxins (diphteria, tetanus...)
- endotoxin (LPS)
