Functions of the cardiovascular system

heart, blood vessels, and blood.


***


circulate blood


**


deliver O2


***


offload CO2


***


Remove substances

Blood components

Plasma, in which the blood cells are suspended, ******


Red blood cells (erythrocytes) - carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.


******


White blood cells (leukocytes) - help fight infections and aid in the immune process.

Functions of the lymphatic system

Immunity:


**


colorless liquid


**


Lymph follows thru lymphatic vessels


**


Lymph node: B cells, T cells, phagocytes

Lymph components

derived from the interstitial fluid,


*****


its composition continually changes as the blood and the surrounding cells continually exchange substances with the interstitial fluid.


*******


Lymph returns proteins and excess interstitial fluid to the bloodstream.

Lymph nodes and function

lymph node is an oval-shaped organ of the lymphatic system, distributed widely throughout the body including the armpit and stomach


***********


major sites of B and T cells.


***********


Lymph nodes are important for the proper functioning of the immune system, acting as filters for foreign particles and cancer cells.


***********


Lymph nodes do not deal with toxicity, which is primarily dealt with by the liver and kidneys.

Bacterial infections

Infections of the bloodSepticemia (sepsis), lymphangitis, severe sepsis, septic shock


****Infections of the heart


Subacute bacterial endocarditis (α-hemolytic streptococci, enterococci, and staphylococci) Actue bacterial endocarditis (Staphylococcus aureus) Rheumatic fever (Streptococcus pyogenes)


***

Lyme Disease
Described in 1975

Organism: Borrelia burgdorferi


vector: Tick


sign: bulls eye rash (70% of people)


symptoms: flu like : high fever


If untreated: irregular heartbeat, facial paralysis (encephylitis, arthritis) must be treated very early, within weeks to insure no long term effects

Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever
Organism: Rickettsia rickettsii

more common than Lyme in carolinas


Vector: Tick


symptoms: rash, (not at site / bottom of feet / hands: 1 week post tick bite) flu-like


***


if untreated : kidney & heart damage

Viral Diseases
A. Infectious mononucleosis

***


particle: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV); =


Human Herpesvirus 4




B. Cytomeagalovirus (CMV) Human Herpesvirus 5

Infectious mononucleosis
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV); = Human Herpesvirus 4

20 % of adults carry EBV in oral secretions


age group: 15 to 25 peak incidence


15% of college students get mono


Infected B cells have a lobed nucleus


transmission: saliva transfer


symptoms: fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue


EBV remains dormant in the body in the mouth and throat (dormant in B cells)

Cytomeagalovirus (CMV)

Human Herpesvirus 5


particle: Cytomegalovirus (underline)


transmission: shed in body secretions: saliva, milk, semen


Spread by: sex, transfusions, nursing baby


-- 80% carry CMV in U.S.


-- symptoms: asymtomatic / or mild case of mono

Protozoan Diseases
1. American Trypanosomiasis (Chaga’s Disease)

organism: Trypanosoma cruzi


-- endemic to central and S. America & Mexico


vector: kissing bug: feeds on body fluids around the mouth:::: bug defecates on peoples skin and the people scratch


another course: Blood transfusion


Pathogens: T. cruzi cysts are deposited into feces------cysts are rubbed into skin at bite site


Trypanosoma cruzi life cycle


2. Malaria


Plasmodium falciparum : life cycle


transmission: bite of Anopheles mosquito the vector.


symptoms: chills , fever, vomit, severe headache: 2 to 3 days


asymptomatic few weeks:::: then symptoms come back


death threat: dehydration


pathogenesis: Mosquito injects Plasmodium sporozoites (tiny infectious cells)


these sporozoites spread to liver------and produce merozoites------and merozoites parasitize RBC


*****


Mosquito feeds on blood and collects merozoites----------- mosquito develops into sporozoites-----pass on the disease (cyclic)

*


class: Trematoda


*


pathogenesis: Adult Flukes in human intestine------Female fluke produce eggs---------eggs passed in host feces & urine---------egg enters water supply------eggs hatch/miracidium....... emerges-------burrows into body of intermediate host-------reproduces (snail) and forms cercariae------cercariae emerges and penetrates to human skin----moves into human intestine matures into adult fluke

Dental caries

Streptococcus mutans


*


sucrose = glucose + fructose


*


S. mutans produce glycossyl transferees which covately connects glucose.


*


Sucrose used by S. mutans is converted by dextran sucrose into fructose & fructose fermented by S. mutans creating lactic acid which disolves _____ converted into dextran by use of glycosol transfuse


*


dextran is a polysaccharide of glucose


polymer.......................................monomer





prevention of dental caries

reduce sucrose intake


*


remove plaque


*


clean teeth regularly

Staphylococcal Food Poisoning

AKA: Staphylococcal enterotoxicosis

*


common contaminated foods: rice, mashed potatoes, foods high in [solute] (very salty or very sweet) like cream pie or baked ham
