Bacterial Pathogenesis
The plague doctor in clothing worn to protect from contagion, circa
1656. We are haunted by images of the horrors of disease and death.

 Commensalism and symbiosis are presented as part of a
continuum, distinguished by the identification of specific
benefits derived by one or both members of a host-bacterial
partnership.


Most human infections are caused by
opportunistic pathogen.

The function of commensal microbe.

Probiotics are defined as live cultures of microorganisms administered orally and acting
beneficially on host health.

Koch’s postulates:
1. Suspected pathogen must be present
2. Pathogen must be isolated and grown in pure culture
3. Cultured pathogen must cause the disease
4. Same pathogen must be re-isolated from the subject

Human and microbes

Normal flora (beneficial or
ignored):


GI track, skin, upper respiratory track
Virulent bacteria (actively cause
disease): pathogenic islands
Opportunistic bacteria (when host
with underline problem):



Pseudomonas aeruginosa: cystic fibrosis/ burn
TB, Kaposi’s sarcoma (herpesvirus): AIDS

Why we do not get ill?
(i) the entire invading population is killed
by phagocytic cells, such as neutrophils, or
circulating bacteriocidal compounds, such
as complement, (ii) the density of bacteria
traversing the integument is collectively too
low to condition the tissue to allow their
population to grow, or (iii) the mutations
or phase shifts required to get across the
mucosa or survive in the blood do not
occur.
It is complex and strong stochastic

Modes of infectious disease transmission
• Contact transmission
– Direct contact (person-to-person): syphilis, gonorrhear, herpes
– Indirect contact: enterovirus infection, measles
– Droplet (less than 1 meter): whooping cough, strep throat
• Vehicle transmission
– Airborne: influenza, tuberculoses, chickenpox
– Water-borne (fecal-oral infection): cholera, diarrhea
– Food-borne: hepatitis, food poisoning, typhoid fever
• Vector transmission
– Biological vectors: malaria, plaque, yellow fever
– Mechanical vectors: E. coli diarrhea, salmonellosis

Where to find the pathogen?
Extracellular versus Intracellular Parasitism
 Extracellular parasites
 destroyed when phagocytosed.
 damaging tissues as they remain outside cells.
 inducing the production of opsonizing antibodies, they
usually produce acute diseases of relatively short
duration.
 Intracellular parasites
 can multiply within phagocytes.
 frequently cause chronic disease.
14
 Extracellular parasites
 Respiratory, cutaneous, tract infections:
Streptococcus spp, Staphylococcus spp.
 Digestion tract infections: Salmonella spp.,
Shigella spp.
 Intracellular parasites
 Respiratory (pneumopathies: immunosuppresive;
children): Chlamydia, Legionella, Mycobateria.
 Sex-transmitted: Chlamydia trachomatis
 CNS + other sites: Listeria monocytogenes;
Pregnant women; immunosuppressive patients
15
The environment in a cell
 Cytosol: pH=7
 Phagosome: pH=6
 Phagolysosome: pH=5

Infection cycle of Listeria monocytogenes.
The bacteria mediate their own internalisation into the cell (1). Cellular
vacuoles are then lysed by the pore forming toxin listeriolysin O and
phospholipase C (2). Once in the cytoplasm the bacteria multiply (5) and
rapidly move around the cell by polar polymerisation of host actin: comet-like
structure (3). On collision with the cell membrane the bacterium forces its way
into the neighboring cell where it lyses the double membrane compartment
and the cycle is complete (4)

cause disease


Adhesins: attachment



Exotoxin A: inhibits host protein synthesis

Exoenzyme S: interferes with phagocytic killing



Phospholipase C: damages tissue

Pyocyanin: damages tissue by ROS

Antibiotic resistance: complicates therapy
