Pasteurellosis
Lesion
-
-
Trachea
reddened & hyperaemic mucosa, edematous
-
-
-
Spleen
severe lymphoid necrosis characterized by karyorrhexis and karyolysis of lymphocytes in white pulp with basophilic aggregates of bacteria in the centre of necrotic area.
slight increase of hemosiderin laden macrophages in red pulp, mild congestion and hemorrhages
-
Liver
Congestion
Congestion
-
diffuse hydropic degeneration and cytoplasmic vacuolation of hepatocytes, marked congestion of blood vessels
Heart
mild congestion
hemorrhages, engorged blood vessels
Virulence factor
-
-
Endotoxin (LPS)
-
-
-
activated pulmonary intravascular macrophages may then lead to influx of other inflammatory cells and cascading injury
-
Iron regulation
-
produce iron-binding outer membrane proteins, which enhance their survival in iron-poor cavities
-
Pathogenesis
-
-
direct contact, or by fomites
-
Serotype A:3
-
Adhesion to endothelial receptors may explain association of some strains with pneumonia and septicemia
Serotype D:1 strain highly adherent to tracheal mucosa, lung, and aorta
