Infectious Agents Pathogenic for Humans and for Veterinary and Farm Animals (Part 1) Viruses Enveloped RNA Viruses (HIV, Influenza, Hepatitis C) Naked RNA Viruses {Polio, Hepatitis A, Rhino-viruses (common cold)} Enveloped DNA Viruses (Herpes Simplex, Epstein Barr – Mononucleosis, Variola major - Smallpox, Vaccinia - cowpox, Hepatitis B) Naked DNA Viruses (Adeno-viruses; SV40 Virus; Polyoma viruses) “Envelop” = lipid bilayer membrane, host-derived; Contains proteins and glycoproteins derived from pathogen or from the host. Bacteria Gram Positive (No 2nd cell envelop) - Anthrax, Staphylococci, Streptococci Gram Negative (2nd Cell envelop with membrane endotoxins) - E coli Extra-cellular (i.e. pathogen is outside of host cells): Neisseria gonorrhoeae; Streptococcal pneumonia Intracellular (i.e. pathogen gets inside of host cells): Listeria Monocytogenes; Tuberculosis; Typhus (rickettsia) Exotoxin Producers: Diptheria, Anthrax, Botulism, Tetanus, Yersinia pestis

Infectious Agents Pathogenic for Humans and for Veterinary and Farm Animals (Part 2) Protozoans Plasmodium falciparum - Malaria Trypanosoma brucei - Sleeping Sickness Trypanosoma cruzei - Chagas Disease Fungal (Yeast) Diseases Ring-worm; Athletes feet Candidiasis Oral "Thrush"; Other opportunistic fungal pathogens Multi-Cellular Parasitic Diseases Parasitic Worms - (Helminths) Schistosomiasis (worm pathogen transmitted by snails

Pathogenicity of Infectious Diseases in Humans 1 Billion Infected World-Wide 15 Million Deaths per Year Greatest Impact in Third-World Countries No Economic Incentive to Develop Treatments Potential Liabilities in Testing and from Failures Significance of the "Global Village” Emergence of resistance to Tuberculosis Emigration of cholera and leishmaniasis Disease survival in susceptible patient pools – polio; measles Pandemic Influenza

Non-Immunological Host Barriers to Infection Epithelial Surfaces Gastrointestinal, respiratory, genito-urinary linings Ciliated epithelium and mucous secretions Epidermal barriers Cellular Secretions Biochemical barriers : Enzymes (can come from innate immune response system) Chemical barriers: pH, oxidants (can come from innate immune responses) Physical Barriers Elevated Temperature (Fever) Cellular Competition: Gut flora
8
Innate Natural Immune Responses to Infectious Agents Gram-positive Bacteria - Peptidoglycan (exposed) Activates alternative complement pathway - C3b Opsonizes Bacteria for Enhanced Host Phagocytosis Gram-negative Bacteria - 2nd Envelope over Peptidoglycan Bacterial Endotoxins - e.g. Lipopolysaccharide Stimulates Cytokines (TNF, IL-1, IL-6) From Macrophages and endothelial cells Activates Macrophages Interferon Stimulation by Viral Infectious Agents Can Directly inhibit viral production Can activate and stimulate NK Cells to attack virally infected cells Possibly by viral effect on MHC Class I Protein Synthesis
9
Innate Natural Immunity and Anti- Viral Responses Type I Interferons (IFN and IFN ) Produced by Virally-infected Cells Also from Monocytes, Macrophages, and Fibroblasts Mechanims of Action of IFN and IFN Infected cell produces membrane receptors for IFN and Activates an RNAase that cleaves viral RNA Inactivates viral protein synthesis by effects on dsRNA-dependent protein kinase Induces Anti-viral response and resistance to intra-cellular viral replication NK Cells Activated by IFN and IFN ; become cytotoxic for virally- infected cells Also activated by IL-12 - produced in response to viral infection
10
Humoral Immunity & Anti-Viral Responses Antibody-mediated Anti-viral Responses Prevent initial infection or reinfection Less effective against intracellular viral infections Less effective against viral DNA incorporated into host genome Secretory IgA - Blocks viral binding to target cells General Immunoglobulin Isotypes Block Fusion Between Virus Envelop and Host Cell Membrane Enhance phagocytosis by opsonization of viral particles IgM - Agglutinates viral particles IgM and IgG - Activates Complement Opsonization by Complement Fragment C3b for phagocytosis Lysis of virus envelop by membrane attack complex
11
Cell-Mediated Immunity & Anti-Viral Responses Interferon From TH1 Helper T-Cells or Tc Direct Anti-viral Action Cytoxic T-Cells (CTLs) Kill virus-infected cells; Eliminates source of additional virus Presentation of Viral Peptides by MHC-Class I Proteins Virus-specific T-cell Clones; Can confer specific immunity by passive (adoptive) transfer to unifective recipient NK Cells and Macrophages Antibody recognition of virus antigens on cell surface Kill by ADCC (Antibody-dependent Cell-mediated Cytotoxicity) Activated TH1 Cells IFN , IL-2, TNF attack virus directly or indirectly IFN has direct anti-viral effects IL-2 Recruits Tc to become Effector CTL

13
Interferon Inhibition Of Viral Replication In Virally-infected Cells Degrades RNA needed for viral replication Shuts down protein synthesis needed for viral replication
14
Viral Evasion of Host Responses: Effects on Infected Cells Block Intra-cellular Effects of IFN and IFN Blocks intra-cellular effects on PKR - RNA-dependent protein kinase By hepatitis C virus Inhibition of Antigen-Presentation in Virally-infected Cells By Herpes Simplex 1 and 2 (HSV1 and HSV2) Early Proteins Inhibits TAP (Transporter Associated with Antigenic Protein) Blocks delivery of Antigenic Peptide to MHC-Class I Protein No presentation to CD8+ CTL Down-regulation (Shutting Down) of Class I MHC Proteins CMV (Cytomegalo Virus) and Adeno Viruses Block Class II MHC Protein Blocks Antigen-specific Anti-viral Helper T-Cells By CMV, Measles, HIV
15
Viral Evasion: Direct Viral Effects Inhibition of Complement Pathways Vaccinia and HSV Antigenic Variation (Mutations in Virus Surface Proteins) Rhino Viruses (Common Cold viruses) Influenza HIV Generalized Host Immuno-Suppression Direct Effects on Macrophages and Lymphocytes Destruction of Immune Cells Alteration of Cell function CMV, HIV, and EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) Paramyxo (Mumps) Virus; Measles Virus Cytokine-based Effects by Virus Production of IL-10 Mimic by EBV Suppresses TH1 Subset Reduces Levels of TNF and IFN , and IL-2
16
Pathogenicity of Influenza Virus Host Range: Mammals, Birds Can cross species barriers Duck influenza can infect pigs Pig influenza can infect humans Can produce extensive antigenic reassortments - "antigenic shift" Subject to Point Mutations in Hemagglutin (Binds to Host-Cell Sialic Acid) - "Antigenic Drift" Host resistance based on Ab to Hemagglutin is by-passed Influenza Pandemics Killed 20 Million - Post World War I (1918 - 1919) Largely Young Adults Lower prior exposure and cross-reactive immunity? More extensive exposure to infected persons? Over-aggressive inflammatory immune response?

Host Response to Influenza Virus Humoral Immune Response to Influenza Virus Antibody Strain-Specific for Virus Hemagglutinin in Virus Envelop Prevents Virus Binding to Host Target Cell Antibodies Block Binding Cleft in HA for Host Cell Membrane Sialic Acid Antibody titer peaks within a few days after infection Decreases for six months Plateaus and persists for several years Antigenic Shift involving entire viral single-stranded RNA's incorporation and increase in infectivity of newly arising influenza strain. Antigenic Drift involves point mutations in Hemagglutinin or Neuraminidase allowing for viral escape from antibody inhibition. Host Protection from Influenza Infection Antibody prevents reinfection by same strain of Influenza Antigenic drift of viral HA requires re-vaccination for newly emergent or re- emerging strains Serum antibody not required for recovery after infection CTL's may play a role in responses after infection
