S aureus• Pathogenic substances
•
• A)Coagulase: • a)free coagulase; b) bound coagulase (clumping factor)
Deposit fibrin on the surface of staphylococci: altering their ingestion by phagocytic cells or their destruction within such cells
• Clumping factor• A surface S aureus compound that is resp
onsible for adherence of the organisms to fibrinogen and fibrin
• Because of these two kinds of meterial. When mixed with plasma, S aureas forms clumps or thrombus,
• Cause local infection not systemic infection.
B) toxins
a) α-toxin
1,broad spectrum of eukaryotic cell membranes, it disrupts biologic membranes
2, the toxin is a potent hemolysin. Can lyses red blood cells
3,The α-toxin degrades sphingomyelin and therefore is a toxic for many kinds of cells, including red blood cells.
b) leukocidin
• Kill white blood cells, two components,they act synergistically on white blood cell membrane to form pores and increase cation permeability, and the dead white blood cell formed purulent (pyic/pyoid) clump
c) exfoliative• Also called epidemolytic toxin, desquamati
on of the staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome.
• d)toxic shock syndrome toxin associated with fever, shock, and multisyst
em involvement including a desquamative skin rash
Clinical finding
1. Invasive and pyogenic infection Furuncle and carbuncle: a superficial skin
infection that develops in hair follicle, sebaceous gland or sweat gland.
2. Toxic shock syndrome: this disease is characterized by high fever, vomiting diarrhea, sore throat, musle pain, within 48 hours, it may progress to severe shock with evidence of renal and hepatic damage, a skin rash may develop followed by desquamation at palm and bottom of feet
3. toxin-mediated disease
1)Scaled skin syndrone: the disease result from the production of exfoliation larger blisters, from there S aureus cannot be isolated, easily broken by hurt, then superficial skin drop off.
2).Food poisoning
Food contaminated by staphylococcal entertoxin,results in acute vomiting and diarrhea within 1 to 5 hours, but usually no fever, few severe patient may prostration or shock recovery is rapid 1—2days. Usually happen in summer and autumn
lab diagnosis produce deep yellow pigment
Hemolysis: complete lysis of erythrocyte
ferment mannitol 甘露醇 catalase test : positive
coagulase test : positive
Treatment and control:1.Ubiquitous human parasites2.reinfection: pathogenic organisms are com
monly spread from one lesion to other areas of the skin by fingers and clothing,so scrupulous local antisepsis is important to control recurrent furunculosis
3.75% of S.epidermidis are nafcillin resistant4.90% of S.aureus are penicillin resistant, do
drug susceptible test, help us to choose correct medicine, and prevent the drug-resistant bacteria from spreading.
streptococcus
• Biological characterization1.shape. Liquid media long chain2.cell wall antigen: divided into serologic groups
(A-H, K-V), majority of human pathogenic streptococci are group A(90%)
3.hemolysis:α: incomplete lysis of erythrocyte with formation green pigment β: complete disruption of erythrocytes with release of hemoglobin γ: non-hemelysis α: opportunistic pathogen β: pathogenγnon pathogen
4.Transmitted by coughing, sneezing and wound infection.
• pathogenesis
1.SK a.transform the plasminogen( 纤维蛋白溶酶原 )
of human plasma into plasmin
b. digesting fibrin
c. help the bacteria spread in human body
2.SD also called DNA enzyme, depolymerizes
DNA, decrease viscosity DNA in purulent
exudates (渗出物) .
3.hyaluronidase Splits hyaluronic acid, an important portant
component of the ground substance of connective tissue, thus, hyaluronidase aids in spreading infecting microorganisms (spreading factor)
4.Pyrogenic exotoxins elaborated by group A streptococci, can ca
use scarlet fever.
5. M protein, F protein, LTA( lipoteichoic acid)
All three appear to be involved in mediating attachment to the epithelial cell surface
• Clinical findings
1. streptococcal sore throat
Little fever, thin serious discharge2.Erysipelas 丹毒 : this characterized by a sprea
ding area of erythema 红斑 and edema 浮肿水肿 with rapidly advancing, well-demarcated 划分 edges, pain and systemic manifestations including fever and lymphadenopathy 淋巴结病
3.Shock syndrome and scarlet fever
4. acute rheumatic fever (ARF) Both streptococci and heart tissue have same or
similar antigens. Bacteria entered human body can stimulate immune system to produce antistreptococci antibodis, and this kind of antibody also react with heart tissue, then cause the disease.
5. Acute glomerulonephritis caused by deposition in the glomerulus of antige
n-antibody complexes with complement activation and consequent inflammation, M protein of some nephritogenic strains have been shown to share antigenic determinants with glomeruli, similar to rheumatic fever
Control or treatment:1.Because the bac can be transmitted by coughing and
sneezing, cure patient or carrier as soon as possible, aids to contron infection source.
2.air, medicine device, dressing must be aseptic.3.Prevent rheum( 感冒 ) , avoid streptococci infection4..Usually use penicillin G. all β-hemolytic group A are
sensitive to penicillin G and most are sensitive to erythromycin, some are resistant to tetracycline5.In acute streptococcal infections, every effort must be made to rapidly eradicate streptococci from the patient, eliminate the antigenic stimulus and thus prevent poststreptococcal disease (ARF& Acute glomerulonephritis )
6.Antimicrobial drugs have no effect on established ARF and glomerulonephritis, but it very useful in preventing reinfection with β-hemolytic group A streptococci in rheumatic fever patient
Streptococcus pneumoniae
• Gram positive
• Pairs or in chains• Can produce autolysis( can damage the bacteria
cell wall,on solid media small round colony, at first domeshaped and later developing a central plateau with an elevated rim. Lysis of pneumococci occurs in a few minutes when ox bile is added to a broth culture)
•α- hemolytic on blood agar
Pathogenesis1. capsule: anti phagocytic cells 2.pneumolysin O:lyse red blood cell
Clinical findings1. pneumococcal pneumonia shaking chill, high fever, cough with production
of sputum pink to rusty in color2.Pneumococcal meningitis
Treatment Penicillin . Penicillin resistant chains:erythromyci
n, vancomycin or quinolones
neisseria
• Gram negative• In pairs• neisseria gonorrhoeae(gonococci) and neisseria menigit
idis(meningococci )are pathogenic for humans
Different capsule: Meningococci have polysaccharide capsules whereas gonococci do notPlasmid:Meningococci rarely have plasmid where as most gonocicci do Disease: Meningococci typically are found in the upper respiratory tract and cause meningitis, while gonococci cause genital infections
meningococci
Pathgenisis Capsule, pili, IgA1 proteaseTransmitted by coughing and sneezingInfection source: carrier and patientClinical findings: meningitisTreatment vaccines are currently used to protect human largedose penicillin G, either chloramphenicol or a t
hird-generation cephalosporin such as cefotaxime or ceftriaxone is used in persons allergic to penicillins
gonococci
Transmitted by sexual contactInfection source: women and men with asymptoma
tic infectionPathogenisis: 1.pili: adhere cannot wash away by urine 2.outermembrane protein: P insert into cell meⅠ
mbrane ,P adhere, P prevent antibody from Ⅱ Ⅲkilling bacteria
3.IgA1 protease damage SIgA(mucous), bac also can adhere to
mucous
Treatment and control
• Worldwide spreading, the infection rate can be reduced by avoiding multiple sexual partners
