óptica, apesar de serem corados pelo Gram
• Espiroquetas móveis pela microscopia de campo
escuro
• Imunofluorescência direta ou impregnação pela prata
Patógeno intra-celular
Não crescem in vitro
Não sobrevivem fora do hospedeiro
Características do Treponema
pallidum
Epidemiologia do T. pallidum
 Transmitidos por contato sexual direto ou
transmissão materno fetal
 Não são altamente contagiosos (~30% de chance
de adquirir doença após exposição única a parceiro
infectado). Taxa de transmissão depende do estágio
da doença
 Longo período de incubação durante o qual o
hospedeiro não transmite a doença
• Epidemiologia útil para rastrear contatos e
administrar tratamento preventivo
 Prostituição permanece aspecto epidemiológico
central na transmissão
Patogênese do T. pallidum
 Destruição de tecidos e lesões são primariamente
uma consequência da resposta imune dos
pacientes
 Sífilis é uma doença dos vasos sanguíneos e das
áreas perivasculares
 Apesar de uma vigorosa resposta imune do
hospedeiro o microorganismo é capaz de persistir
por décadas
• Infecção não é completamente controlada ou
erradicada
• Nos estágios iniciais, há inibição da imunidade celular
• Nos estágios tardios da doença, as lesões tendem a ser
localizadas
Fatores de Virulência -T. pallidum
 Outer membrane proteins promote adherence
 Hyaluronidase may facilitate perivascular
infiltration
 Antiphagocytic coating of fibronectin
 Tissue destruction and lesions are primarily
result of host’s immune response
(immunopathology)
Doença primária envolve a invasão das membranas
mucosas, multiplicação rápida e ampla
disseminação através dos vasos linfáticos e
circulação sistêmica
Ocorre antes do desenvolvimento da lesão primária
10-90 dias (usualmente 3-4 semanas) após contato
inicial o hospedeiro apresenta uma resposta
inflamatória no sítio da inoculação resultando na
lesão sifilítica, chamada de cancro (não dolorosa)
• Cancro muda de duro a ulcerativo com abundante
disseminação de espiroquetas
• Edema das paredes capilares e linfonodos regionais
• Lesão Primária cicatriza espontaneamente em dois meses,
levando a falsa sensação de alívio
Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.)
Sífilis Primária
 Doença secundária aparece 2-10 semanas após
lesão primária
 Rash mucocutâneo amplamente disseminado
 Lesões secundárias da pele e membranas
mucosas são altamente contagiosas
 Resposta imunológica generalizada

Mucocutaneous
Rash of
Secondary
Syphilis
Após estágio secundário da doença, hospedeiro
entra em período latente
•Primeiros 4 anos = latente precoce
•Período subsequente = latente tardio
Cerca de 40% dos pacientes em estágio latente
progridem para doença sifilítica tardia latente
terciária (estágio terciário)
Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.)
Estágio Latente da Sífilis
 Sífilis Terciária caracterizada por lesões cutâneas
granulomatosas localizadas (gomas) nas quais
poucos organismos estão presentes
 Neurosífilis tardia se desenvolve em cerca de 1/6
dos casos não tratados, usualmente mais de 5 anos
após infecção inicial
• Demência, convulsões, etc.
 Involvimento cardiovascular aparece 10-40 anos
após infecção inicial resultando em insuficiência
cardíaca e morte

Sífilis Terciária
Progressão da Sífilis Não Tratada
Tertiary Stage

 Congenital syphilis results from transplacental
infection
 T. pallidum septicemia in the developing fetus and
widespread dissemination
 Abortion, neonatal mortality, and late mental or
physical problems resulting from scars from the
active disease and progression of the active disease
state

Prevention & Treatment of Syphilis
 Penicillin remains drug of choice
• WHO monitors treatment recommendations
• 7-10 days continuously for early stage
• At least 21 days continuously beyond the early stage
 Prevention with barrier methods (e.g., condoms)
 Prophylactic treatment of contacts identified
through epidemiological tracing
Diagnostic Tests for Syphilis
NOTE: Treponemal antigen tests indicate experience with a treponemal
infection, but cross-react with antigens other than T. pallidum ssp.
pallidum. Since pinta and yaws are rare in USA, positive treponemal
antigen tests are usually indicative of syphilitic infection.

 Associated with poverty, crowding, and warfare
 Arthropod vectors
• Louse-borne borreliosis = Epidemic Relapsing Fever
 Transmitted person-to-person by human body lice
(vectors) from infected human reservoir
 Infect host only when louse is injured, e.g., during
scratching
 Therefore, a single louse can only infect a single person
 Lice leave host that develops a fever and seek normal
temperature host
• Tick-borne borreliosis = Endemic Relapsing Fever
 Sporadic cases
 Transmitted by soft body ticks (vectors) from small
mammal reservoir
 Ticks can multiply and infect new human hosts
Epidemiology of Relapsing Fever
Pathogenesis of Relapsing Fever
 Relapsing fever (a.k.a., tick fever, borreliosis, famine
fever)
• Acute infection with 2-14 day (~ 6 day) incubation period
• Followed by recurring febrile episodes
• Constant spirochaetemia that worsens during febrile
stages
 Epidemic Relapsing Fever = Louse-borne borreliosis
• Borrelia recurrentis
 Endemic Relapsing Fever = Tick-borne borreliosis
• Borrelia spp.
Clinical Progression of
Relapsing Fever
Borrelia burgdorferi
Pathogenesis of Lyme Borreliosis
 Lyme disease characterized by three stages:
i. Initially a unique skin lesion (erythema chronicum
migrans (ECM)) with general malaise
 ECM not seen in all infected hosts
 ECM often described as bullseye rash
 Lesions periodically reoccur
i. Subsequent stage seen in 5-15% of patients with
neurological or cardiac involvement
ii. Third stage involves migrating episodes of non-
destructive, but painful arthritis
 Acute illness treated with phenoxymethylpenicillin
or tetracycline

Diagnosis of Lyme Borreliosis
Bacteria and Syndromes that Cause
Cross-Reactions with Lyme
Borreliosis Serological Tests
 Lyme disease was recognized as a syndrome in
1975 with outbreak in Lyme, Connecticut
 Transmitted by hard body tick (Ixodes spp.)
vectors
• Nymph stage are usually more aggressive feeders
• Nymph stage generally too small to discern with
unaided eye
• For these reasons, nymph stage transmits more
pathogens
 White-footed deer mice and other rodents, deer,
domesticated pets and hard-shelled ticks are most
common reservoirs
Epidemiology of Lyme Borreliosis
Incidence of Lyme Borreliosis in USA
Leptospira interrogans
Silver Stain of Leptospira interrogans
serotype icterohaemorrhagiae
 Obligate aerobes
 Characteristic hooked ends
(like a question mark, thus the
species epithet – interrogans)
Leptospirosis Clinical Syndromes
 Mild virus-like syndrome
 (Anicteric leptospirosis) Systemic with aseptic
meningitis
 (Icteric leptospirosis) Overwhelming disease
(Weil’s disease)
Vascular collapse
Thrombocytopenia
Hemorrhage
Hepatic and renal dysfunction
NOTE: Icteric refers to jaundice (yellowing of skin and mucus
membranes by deposition of bile) and liver involvement
 Leptospirosis, also called Weil’s disease in humans
 Direct invasion and replication in tissues
 Characterized by an acute febrile jaundice &
immune complex glomerulonephritis
 Incubation period usually 10-12 days with flu-like
illness usually progressing through two clinical
stages:
i. Leptospiremia develops rapidly after infection (usually
lasts about 7 days) without local lesion
ii. Infects the kidneys and organisms are shed in the urine
(leptospiruria) with renal failure and death not
uncommon
 Hepatic injury & meningeal irritation is common
Pathogenesis of Icteric Leptospirosis
Clinical Progression of Icteric (Weil’s
Disease) and Anicteric Leptospirosis
(pigmented
part of eye)
Epidemiology of Leptospirosis
 Mainly a zoonotic disease
• Transmitted to humans from a variety of wild and
domesticated animal hosts
• In USA most common reservoirs rodents (rats), dogs,
farm animals and wild animals
 Transmitted through breaks in the skin or intact
mucus membranes
 Indirect contact (soil, water, feed) with infected
urine from an animal with leptospiruria
 Occupational disease of animal handling

  • 19. Epidemiologia do T. pallidum  Transmitidos por contato sexual direto ou transmissão materno fetal  Não são altamente contagiosos (~30% de chance de adquirir doença após exposição única a parceiro infectado). Taxa de transmissão depende do estágio da doença  Longo período de incubação durante o qual o hospedeiro não transmite a doença • Epidemiologia útil para rastrear contatos e administrar tratamento preventivo  Prostituição permanece aspecto epidemiológico central na transmissão
  • 20. Patogênese do T. pallidum  Destruição de tecidos e lesões são primariamente uma consequência da resposta imune dos pacientes  Sífilis é uma doença dos vasos sanguíneos e das áreas perivasculares  Apesar de uma vigorosa resposta imune do hospedeiro o microorganismo é capaz de persistir por décadas • Infecção não é completamente controlada ou erradicada • Nos estágios iniciais, há inibição da imunidade celular • Nos estágios tardios da doença, as lesões tendem a ser localizadas
  • 21. Fatores de Virulência -T. pallidum  Outer membrane proteins promote adherence  Hyaluronidase may facilitate perivascular infiltration  Antiphagocytic coating of fibronectin  Tissue destruction and lesions are primarily result of host’s immune response (immunopathology)
  • 22. Doença primária envolve a invasão das membranas mucosas, multiplicação rápida e ampla disseminação através dos vasos linfáticos e circulação sistêmica Ocorre antes do desenvolvimento da lesão primária 10-90 dias (usualmente 3-4 semanas) após contato inicial o hospedeiro apresenta uma resposta inflamatória no sítio da inoculação resultando na lesão sifilítica, chamada de cancro (não dolorosa) • Cancro muda de duro a ulcerativo com abundante disseminação de espiroquetas • Edema das paredes capilares e linfonodos regionais • Lesão Primária cicatriza espontaneamente em dois meses, levando a falsa sensação de alívio Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.) Sífilis Primária
  • 23.  Doença secundária aparece 2-10 semanas após lesão primária  Rash mucocutâneo amplamente disseminado  Lesões secundárias da pele e membranas mucosas são altamente contagiosas  Resposta imunológica generalizada Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.) Sífilis secundária
  • 25. Após estágio secundário da doença, hospedeiro entra em período latente •Primeiros 4 anos = latente precoce •Período subsequente = latente tardio Cerca de 40% dos pacientes em estágio latente progridem para doença sifilítica tardia latente terciária (estágio terciário) Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.) Estágio Latente da Sífilis
  • 26.  Sífilis Terciária caracterizada por lesões cutâneas granulomatosas localizadas (gomas) nas quais poucos organismos estão presentes  Neurosífilis tardia se desenvolve em cerca de 1/6 dos casos não tratados, usualmente mais de 5 anos após infecção inicial • Demência, convulsões, etc.  Involvimento cardiovascular aparece 10-40 anos após infecção inicial resultando em insuficiência cardíaca e morte Patogênese do T. pallidum (cont.)

  • 30. Prevention & Treatment of Syphilis  Penicillin remains drug of choice • WHO monitors treatment recommendations • 7-10 days continuously for early stage • At least 21 days continuously beyond the early stage  Prevention with barrier methods (e.g., condoms)  Prophylactic treatment of contacts identified through epidemiological tracing
  • 31. Diagnostic Tests for Syphilis NOTE: Treponemal antigen tests indicate experience with a treponemal infection, but cross-react with antigens other than T. pallidum ssp. pallidum. Since pinta and yaws are rare in USA, positive treponemal antigen tests are usually indicative of syphilitic infection. (Original Wasserman Test)

  • 41.  Associated with poverty, crowding, and warfare  Arthropod vectors • Louse-borne borreliosis = Epidemic Relapsing Fever  Transmitted person-to-person by human body lice (vectors) from infected human reservoir  Infect host only when louse is injured, e.g., during scratching  Therefore, a single louse can only infect a single person  Lice leave host that develops a fever and seek normal temperature host • Tick-borne borreliosis = Endemic Relapsing Fever  Sporadic cases  Transmitted by soft body ticks (vectors) from small mammal reservoir  Ticks can multiply and infect new human hosts Epidemiology of Relapsing Fever
  • 42. Pathogenesis of Relapsing Fever  Relapsing fever (a.k.a., tick fever, borreliosis, famine fever) • Acute infection with 2-14 day (~ 6 day) incubation period • Followed by recurring febrile episodes • Constant spirochaetemia that worsens during febrile stages  Epidemic Relapsing Fever = Louse-borne borreliosis • Borrelia recurrentis  Endemic Relapsing Fever = Tick-borne borreliosis • Borrelia spp.
  • 45. Pathogenesis of Lyme Borreliosis  Lyme disease characterized by three stages: i. Initially a unique skin lesion (erythema chronicum migrans (ECM)) with general malaise  ECM not seen in all infected hosts  ECM often described as bullseye rash  Lesions periodically reoccur i. Subsequent stage seen in 5-15% of patients with neurological or cardiac involvement ii. Third stage involves migrating episodes of non- destructive, but painful arthritis  Acute illness treated with phenoxymethylpenicillin or tetracycline
