Department of Pathology Faculty of veterinary medicine Mechanism of bacteriainduced injury: Intracellular bacteria Extracellular bacteria Intracellular bacteria Damage the host tissues by: invasion to host cells and may form toxins. Extracellular bacteria Damage the host tissues :by their ability to adhere to the host cells and produce toxins. Bacterial toxins Endotoxines Exotoxines Endotoxines (a) Lipopolysaccharide ( LPS ) in nature. (b) Structural components of the outer cell wall of gm –ve bacteria. (c) Non specific toxines. (d) Their biological activity include induction of fever, septic Shock, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Exotoxines Harmful product secreted by bacteria. Specific for each bacteria. Includes different Enzymes as; Hemolysins, Leucocidins, Coagulases,and Hyalourinidase, Fibrinolycins. Inflammatory Response To Bacterial agents Suppurative Polymorphnuclear Inflammation. Mononuclear inflammation. Granulomatous inflammation. Necrotizing inflammation. Suppurative Polymorphnuclear Inflammation Neutrophils attracted to pyogenic bacteria which release chemo attractants that evoke this response. Mononuclear inflammation Mononuclear cells is a------ i) Common features of All chronic inflam. Process. As in Leptospira ii) In response to intracellular bacteria & spirochetes in acute inflam. Process. Granulomatous inflammation Distinctive form of mononuclear inflam. Evoked by slow dividing infectious agents as M. tuberculosis. Necrotizing inflammation Rapid and Severe tissue damage in which cell death is the dominant feature evoked by v.strong toxins which secreted from C. perfringens.

Brucellosis Definition: * Infectious disease of animals & man. * Caused by brucella. * Ch’Ch abortion. Cause: Brucella species. Route of infection : 1. Ingestion 2. Conjunctiva 3. Intact or broken skin 4. Coitus. Brucellosis Pathogenesis : Localization Male M.O Pregnant Spleen uterus Mammary gland vesicles) placental necrosis Regional L.N Female Synovial structures (tendovaginitis) (arthritis) Blood Male & Female Lymphoid tissue testis&Accessory gland (prostate & seminal (Bursitis) Formation of granulomes Abortion (Epithelioid cells surrounded by lymphocytes and plasma cells) * Localization of brucella organism in different organs depends on the presence of its carbohydrate content ( erythritol ) as a source of energy for the growth of the M.O. * whenever the organism localized, granuloma develops. Brucellosis Abortion in cattle Occurs in the 7th & 8th m of gestation. In severe cases, abortion or premature birth occurs. In mild cases,calf delivered either viable or not viable. Brucellosis P.M lesions : (i) Placenta Edema of intercotyledonary area (between fetal membranes and uterine mucosa) with coagulative necrosis of maternal (caruncle) and fetal (cotyledon) portions of the placentome. Placenta becomes leathery with brown thick exudate on the chorionic surface. In animals previously infected with brucellosis, fibrosis of fetal and maternal portions of the placentome results in retained placenta. Brucellosis P.M lesions : (i) Placenta Micro : Edema and cell infiltration of the intercotyledonary area. Vasculitis due to endotoxines. areas of coagulative necrosis in fetal and maternal portions of the placentome. Brucellosis P.M lesions : (ii) Fetus Catarrhal or fibrinous bronchopneumonia. Fibrinous inflammation of serous membrane. Micro : Catarrhal or fibrinous bronchopneumonia. Necrotizing arteritis. Granuloma with giant cell formation in the spleen and L.N. Brucellosis P.M lesions : (iii) Udder (Bang's disease) Characterized by focal interstitial mastitis. (iv) Bull Orchitis, seminal vesiculitis and prostatitis. Orchitis characterized by areas of necrosis which liquefies into pus surrounded by C.T. capsule. Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) Definition: * Infectious disease of cattle and sheep. * Ch’ch’ ; Abortion and infertility. Cause: Campylobacter fetus var venerealis in cattle. Campylobacter fetus var intestinalis in sheep. Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Cattle: Signs * Abortion 4-6 months of gestation. *Temporary sterility or repeat breeding due to early embryonic death. Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Cattle: R.O.I *By coitus and artificial insemination. *Bulls can act as carriers by carrying the organism in the penile mucosa up to 4-5 years. * M.O can survive in vaginal mucosa for longer periods. Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Cattle: Lesions Gross and microscopic picture is similar to those of brucellosis but less severe. Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Sheep: Pathogenesis: Ingestion Bacteremia Localization in gut,bile,or uterus of pregnant ewes Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Sheep: Signs Abortion 4 months of gestation ( late). Vibriosis(Campylobacter fetus) In Sheep: Lesions *DAM Endometritis, Cervisitis, and Vaginitis *Placenta *Fetus Placentitis as in brucellosis. Multiple areas of hepatic necrosis with depressed center. • •
