2
Mycobacterium
3
Important Human Pathogens
Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mycobacterium leprae (uncommon) Mycobacterium avium-intracellulaire Complex (MAC) or (M. avium)
4
Lipid-Rich Cell Wall of Mycobacterium
Mycolic acids CMN Group: Unusual cell wall lipids (mycolic acids,etc.) (Purified Protein Derivative)
5
Acid-Fast (Kinyoun) Stain of Mycobacterium
NOTE: cord growth (serpentine arrangement) of virulent strains
6
Photochromogenic Mycobacterium kansasii on Middlebrook Agar
NOTE: Mycobacteria pathogenic for humans can be differentiated (Runyon Groups) by: speed of growth (all are slower than most other pathogens) and by production of chromogenic pigments (in light, in dark, or none)
7
Improved Mycobacterial Isolation Medium
8
Eight Week Growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on Lowenstein-Jensen Agar
9
Pathogenic Mycobacterium spp.
BCG AIDS patients
10
Mycobacterial Clinical Syndromes
11
Diagram of a Granuloma NOTE: ultimately a fibrin layer develops around granuloma (fibrosis), further “walling off” the lesion. Typical progression in pulmonary TB involves caseation, calcification and cavity formation.
12
Laboratory Diagnosis of Mycobacterial Disease
Nucleic acid probes Nucleic acid sequencing
13
Differential Characteristics of Commonly Isolated Mycobacterium spp.
15
Mycobacterium tuberculosis
16
Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infections
17
Incidence of Tuberculosis in USA
18
Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infections (cont.)
Positive PPD + Chest X-Ray + MDR-TB a serious global health threat BCG (bacille Calmette-Guerin) = attenuated M. bovis
19
Typical Progression of Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Pneumonia Granuloma formation with fibrosis Caseous necrosis Tissue becomes dry & amorphous (resembling cheese) Mixture of protein & fat (assimilated very slowly) Calcification Ca++ salts deposited Cavity formation Center liquefies & empties into bronchi
20
PPD Tuberculosis Skin Test Criteria
PPD = Purified Protein Derivative from M. tuberculosis
21
Chest X-Ray of Patient with Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis
22
Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Stained with Fluorescent Dye
24
Mycobacterium leprae
25
Mycobacterium leprae Infections
26
Mycobacterium leprae Infections (cont.)
27
Tuberculoid vs. Lepromatous Leprosy
Clinical Manifestations and Immunogenicity
28
Lepromatous vs. Tuberculoid Leprosy
29
Lepromatous Leprosy (Early/Late Stages)
30
Lepromatous Leprosy Pre- and Post-Treatment
31
Clinical Progression of Leprosy
32
Effect of Cell-Mediated Immunity on Leprosy Clinical Outcome
34
Mycobacterium avium-intracellulaire Complex (MAC)
35
Mycobacterium avium-intracellulaire Infections
36

37
M. avium-intracellulaire Complex (MAC) Progression vs
M. avium-intracellulaire Complex (MAC) Progression vs. CD4 Count in AIDS Patients
38
Mycobacterium avium-intracellulaire in Tissue Specimens
Low Magnification High Magnification
