The course deals with molecular mechanisms of host-pathogen interactions. Upon recapitulation of the basic
mechanisms of mammalian immune system function, the lectures will focus on genetic basis and regulation
mechanisms underlying virulence of bacterial pathogens. Molecular details of action of major virulence factors,
such as adhesins, toxins, complement resistance and immunomodulatory substances will be discussed. Action of
virulence factors will be discussed from the systemic context of the entire host organism down to the level of
biology and physiology of cells of the immune system. Principles of host-pathogen interactions will then be
analyzed using selected examples of major human pathogens and bacterial infections.
