This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_Colonization_part2, the ability to resist innate immunity mechanism resisting phagocytic destruction, the ability to resist adaptive immunity mechanism produce polysaccharides capsules similar to human tissue polysaccharides so antibodies are not made against these capsules, depolymerize actin; no phagosome formation example Vibrio cholerae, the ability to resist adaptive immunity mechanism produce proteins that bind to the Fc portion of antibodies preventing opsonization, Bacterial Colonization of the Host ???? the ability to resist adaptive immunity, the ability to resist innate immunity mechanism resisting phagocytic engulfment, the ability to resist adaptive immunity mechanism change molecular shape of pili, adhesins, capsules, flagella, etc. so antibodies no longer fit, produce polysaccharides capsules similar to human tissue polysaccharides so antibodies are not made against these capsules examples Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pyogenes, resisting phagocytic engulfment ???? produce capsules, resisting phagocytic destruction mechanisms kill phagocytes, produce capsules mechanism cover PAMPs to block unenhanced attachment, resisting phagocytic destruction mechanisms prevents phagosomes from fusing with lysosomes, kill phagocytes examples Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Shigella, Salmonella, Bacterial Colonization of the Host ???? the ability to resist innate immunity, block complement pathways ???? block C3b production or degrade C3b; no C3b opsonization, block C3b production or degrade C3b; no C3b opsonization examples Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Hemophilus influenzae type b, Staphylococcus aureus, resisting phagocytic destruction mechanisms escape from the phagosome prior to the phagosome fusing with a lysosome, the ability to resist innate immunity mechanism depolymerize actin; no phagosome formation, degrade the body's protective antibodies that are found in mucus (IgA) examples Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae, the ability to resist adaptive immunity mechanism degrade the body's protective antibodies that are found in mucus (IgA)
