diseases

Rhizopus Stolonifer

Fungi

Black bread mold

Black spores bc of black mold

Rhizopus burkderia symbosis

Fungi

Rice bacterium borkholderia growing inside rhyzopus produces rhizoxin

Toxin when bacteria released

Aspergillus fumigatas

fungi

Allergies and pathogen

use potato dextris agar, 3 dot method

Cryptococcosis

yeast

Grown on bird agar, caused by yeast

Systemic mycosis

Inhalation of spores from dried pigeon droppings.

Immunocompromised gets meningitis, not is mild just pneumonia

Nosocomial Candidas

Yeast

10% noscomial (hospital Acquired bloodstream infected)

C. Auris

Yeast

Mortality rate 50%, deadly

Candida albicans or candida glabrata

Yeast

Urinary tract infection

Sexual contact spreading

Opportunistic, out of control means UTI

Amebiasis

Protozoa

Amoebic dysentery (diarrhea)

Caused by entamoeba histolyica

Pseudopod (fake foot)

Cysts: becomes a cyst, then cyst gets absorbed. Helps survive.

Men more likely to develop

Asymptomatic to fulmination dysentery

Malaria

Protozoa

Caused Plasmodium

Most deadly(plasmodium falciparum)

Apicomplex- (injection tip)

Vector- mosquito

Blood transfusion or bite to spread

Sporosite injected in liver, replicate as meiozite, released and enter erythocytes, replicates, lyses them, makes gametocytes that go back in mosquito.

Pyrotherapy:

Heat to treat injection, julius wagner, unethical, no syphilis with malaria

African sleeping syndrome

Protozoa

Human african trypanosomiasis (HAT)

Patient in coma

Caused my trymanosomes- change shape

Apicomplexa/vector- tsetse flies

Reservoir- cattle snd wild animals

VSG switching- antigenic variation

-antigen changes as antibodies are made, so many antibodies cause comas

Tosoplasmosis

Protozoa

Apicomplexa

Reservoir-wild rodent, birds, small mammals

Fecal-oral- transmission from infected animal

Asymptomatic or resembles mono

TACHYZOITES cross placebta and infect fetus, lead to abortion

Cytocidal

Infection in eukaryotic cell

-cell killer

-HIV-AIDS

Latent

Infection in eukaryotic cells

Infect then goes to sleep, before reactivated

Varicella-chickenpox

Persistent

Eukaryotic infection

Replicated then shed

EBV-mono/burkittis lymphoma

Transformation

Infection in eukaryotic cells

changing cell, nucleic acid into chromosome thats not urs

HPV-cervical cancer

Scrapie

Prion disease

In sheep

Accumulation misfolded protein, sheep scrape to death

Chronic wasting disease (CWD)

Prion disease

Deer, elk, reindeer

Sponge brain

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)

Prion disease

Eat mad cow meat

Eat something carrying VCJD

Cratzfelf-jakob diease (CJD)

Prion disease

In humans

Due to mutations, 3% have

Exon nucleotide modification, amino acid misfolded

No cure

Kuru

prion disease

In humans

Small island, cannabolism

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathy

Eat contaminated food with their CNS

Surgery, not clean tools

Genetics
