- Are bacterial growth and infection in the host necessary forthe production of toxins? Explain and cite examples for youranswerA boy with advanced Duchenne muscular dystrophy developedpulmonary edema (accumulation of fluid in the lungs) and pneumoniacaused by a bacterial infection. His physician diagnosed the conditionin the following way: The pulmonary edema was the result of heartfailure, and the increased fluid in the lungs provided a site wherebacteria could invade and grow. The fact that the boy could notbreathe deeply or cough effectively made the condition worse. Howwould the muscle tissues in a boy with advanced DMD differ from themuscle tissues in a boy with less advanced DMD?The worldwide spread ofmultidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogenicbacteria has becomean urgent threat to human and animalhealth. More than two million people inthe United States become infected withantibiotic-resistant bacteria each year, andmore than 23,000 of them will die fromtheir infections. In 2015, approximately480,000 cases of MDR tuberculosisoccurred worldwide and another 100,000cases were resistant to at least one antibiotic.In the United States, cases of drugresistantenterobacteriaceae infectionsincreased three-fold between 2001 and2012. In 2016, a woman in Nevada died ofa Klebsiella pneumoniae infection caused bya strain that was resistant to 26 differentantibiotics, including colistin, which is consideredthe “last resort” antibiotic.One factor leading to the spread ofMDR bacteria is the selective pressurebrought about by repeated exposure toantibiotics. Worldwide, livestock consume used as feed supplements. The routineuse of antibiotics in livestock feed and theoveruse of human…
