Hey! Let's break it all down!

Methicillin: It is an antibiotic formerly used in the treatment of bacterial infections caused by genus Staphylococcus. It's a semisynthetic derivative of penicillin. It contains a modification to the original penicillin structure that makes it resistant to an enzyme called penicillinase.

Resistant: Pertaining to the ability of a microorganism to remain unaffected by and antimicrobial agent. Or a lack of response to, or of influence by, a pathogen, toxin, treatment, or other stressors.

Staphylococcus aureus: Well, it is a type of bacteria. It is apart of the Staphylococcaceae family. It is a very bad bacteria to have as it can cause infections.

2. Alright. Let's see if this is correct.

1st Link: Infectious Agent. 
2nd Link: Reservoir. 
3rd Link: Portal of Exit. 
4th Link: Route of Transmission. (Can only be spread through direct contact with infected material.)
5th Link: Portal of Entry. (Enters the body through open wounds, sores and such.)
6th Link: Susceptible Host

Signs and symptoms of MRSA could be:

Minor skin infections.
Boils, Cellulitis Folliculitis, Carbuncles.
Scalded Skin Syndrome and Abscesses.
Lung Infection or Pneumonia.
Brain Infection or Meningitis.
Bone Infection or Osteomyelitis.
Heart Infection or Endocarditis.
Life threatening blood infections or TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome.)


Finally, the first way to break the chain of transmission is to simply block out the route of transmission, since this bacteria can only be spread through direct contact with infected material, doing things such as washing hands regularly, cleaning and covering wounds, taking antibiotics if they are prescribed can help break that chain of transmission.

Another way is to not come in contact with direct contact to people who do have it. This may sound obvious, however the MRSA bacteria would eventually leave the host through open sores or wounds. Meaning it is probably the best to stay away from them, so it doesn't transmit to you or others.

Last but not least. You can block its Portal of Entry. By quickly taking care of any type of injuries on your body and with the right treatment, you can quickly block off the Portal of Entry before it can be transmitted to you.

Have a nice day!

Which statement is true about Induction immunosuppressive agent therapy?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

About the induction of immunosuppressive therapy it is true that the goal of induction immunosuppression agent therapy is to significantly decrease the T cell response to the allograft (option C).

Explanation:

Immunosuppressive drug therapy is used when an organ transplant is performed, to prevent the transplanted organ from being rejected by the immune system.

One of the action mechanisms of immunosuppressors is to decrease the action of T lymphocytes, which are the main responsible for the rejection response to the transplant.

The function of T-lymphocytes can be:

  1. CD4⁺ are producers of antibodies, which can attack foreign tissue.
  2. CD8⁺  capable of directly attacking a transplanted tissue, recognized as foreign.

Drugs such as cyclosporine and tacrolimus prevent the activation of T-lymphocytes, preventing the rejection of transplanted organs.

the other options are not correct because:

<em>     a. Immunosuppressive agents are not only administered before transplantation, but are used throughout life.</em>

<em>     b. Immunosuppressive agents are not less powerful than therapeutic agents.</em>

<em>     d. Immunosuppressants are not specific to prevent rejection of transplanted organs.</em>
