EXPOSURE
to pathogens
ADHERENCE
to skin or mucosa
INVASION
through epithelium
COLONIZATION
and
GROWTH
Production of virulence factors
TOXICITY:
toxin effects are local or systemic
INVASIVENESS:
further growth at
- riginal and distant sites
TISSUE DAMAGE, DISEASE

Excitation signals from the central nervous system Muscle
Normal
Acetylcholine (A) induces contraction of muscle fibers
Botulism
Botulinum toxin, , blocks release of A, inhibiting contraction
Figure 27.23
Inhibitory interneuron Inhibition Excitation signals from the central nervous system Tetanus toxin Muscle
Normal
Glycine (G) release from inhibitory interneurons stops acetylcholine (A) release and allows relaxation
- f muscle
Tetanus
Tetanus toxin binds to inhibitory interneurons, preventing release
- f glycine (G) and relaxation
- f muscle
