How do A-B toxins resemble or differ from cytotoxins that affect bacterial membrane structure or superantigens? How does endotoxin differ in its mode of action from an A-B type toxin? For the following statements, indicate whether the statement is true or false. a. Bacterial endotoxin is the lipid A moiety of LPS and acts by inhibiting the host inflammatory response. b. A few microorganisms are pathogenic solely because of the toxins they produce. (In other words, invasion of the host tissue is not required for pathogenicity). c.
