Toxin production: Endotoxin Exotoxin • Toxines are strong immunogenes Ab production Dosis letalis < Dosis immunosatoria minima Death or recovery without immunity Some toxines Superantigens
Receptor molecules • Pathogenes may attach to specific molecules on the cells Alpha-dystroglycon on Schwann cells acts as a receptor for M. Leprae • Tissue tropism Mo can multiply on the cell
