QUESTIONS AND DETAILED SOLUTIONS
◉ when you have strep, antibodies bind and clump and get stuck in
the kidneys filtration system.
Answer: why does acute glomerulonephritis occur after strep
throat?
◉ m protein.
Answer: causes inhibition of complement component C3b, thereby
interfering with opsonization and lysis
◉ hyaluronic acid capsule.
Answer: may camouflage the bacterium from phagocytosis
◉ streptokinases.
Answer: enzymes that break down blood clots, presumably enable
group A streptoccci to spread rapidly through damaged tissues
◉ C5a peptidase.
Answer: an enzye that breaks down complement protein C5a, which
is a chemotactic factor.
,◉ pyrogenic toxins.
Answer: stimulate leukocytes to release cytokines that in turn
stimulate fever, rash, and shock
◉ streptolysins.
Answer: lyse erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets
◉ diptheria.
Answer: sore throat, localized pain, and fever and the presence of a
pseudomembrane that can obstruct airways
◉ diptheria.
Answer: caused by corynebacterium diptheriae which produces
diptheria toxin
◉ diptheria.
Answer: spread via respiratory droplets or skin contact and
diagnosis is bases on presence of a pseudomembrane and treated
with antitoxin and antibiotic
◉ rhinosinusitis and otitis media.
, Answer: malaise accompanied by headache and inflamed nasal
passages which is caused by various respiratory microbiota
◉ common cold.
Answer: sneezing, runny nose, congestion, sore throat, malaise, and
cough caused by enteroviruses
◉ lower respiratory tract.
Answer: part of the respiratory system that is axenic
◉ bacterial pneumonias.
Answer: lung inflammation accompanied by fluid-filled alveoli and
bronchioles and is described by affected region or organism causing
the disease
◉ lobar pneumonia.
Answer: involves entire lobes of the lungs
◉ mycoplasmal pneumonia.
Answer: walking pneumonia that is caused by the bacteria
mycoplasma pneumonia
◉ healhcare-associated pneumonia.
