Q

antigenic properties (+ virulence factors) of parainfluenza

*(factors of virulence)
- H (for adhesion)

Q

pathogenicity of parainfluenza

A
  • source =sick person
    ​
  • trans. method =
    1)air drop
    2)contact mechanism​
    ​
  • gate = epithelia of mucosa of upper resp. tract

pathogenesis:
(cytopathogenic)
- H, N antigens attach to and bind host cell CM.
- virus penetrates cell by fusion using F antigen - forming giant multinucleated cells.
-(cytopathic) so virus exits cell by budding from CM
- virus affects upper resp tract causing croup and narrowing of trachea, which results in barking cough.
- infection can spread deeper to lower resp tract leading to pneumonia and bronchitis

Q

antigenic properties (+ virulence factors) of mumps

A

-HN = adhesion &binding
-F = penetration by fusion
-N (nucleocapsid) protein = encapsulating/forming nucelocapsid of the mature virus

17
Q

morphology of rubella

A
  • spherical shape
    -complex virus (enveloped/supra-capsid)
  • single stranded RNA (+ve); (unsegmented)
    2 surface glycoproteins.
    -E1 (hemagglutinin - fusion / RBC-clumping)
    -E2 (adhesion)
18
Q

antigenic properties (+ virulence factors) of rubella

A

-E1 & E2 (=adhesion & penetration)
-C (Capsid Protein) =forms nucelocapsids for mature viruses
-NS (non-structural) Protein = have a role in viral replication and transcription.

19
Q

cultivation of measles /MUMPS

A
  • vero cells (monkey kidney cells)
  • human embryonic cells
20
Q

cultivation of rubella

A
  • vero cells
  • RK-13 (Rabbit kidney cells)
21
Q

pathogenicity of measles

A
  • source =sick person
    ​
  • trans. method =
    1)airborne (airdrop)
    ​
  • gate =mucous membranes of upper resp. tract

pathogenesis:
(cytopathogenic)
-H (attachment), F, capsid protein
- virus initiates lytic infection in cells of upper resp.tract
- they enter the blood, causing viremia and spread throughout the body reaching from mouth to skin, conjunctiva, GI tract, CNS

22
Q

clinical manifestations of measles

A
  • fever (high temp:39 40C)
  • Maculopopular Rash; Koplik spots(starts on FACE and travels down to Torso then Limbs)
    -conjunctivitis
23
Q

pathogenicity of rubella

A
  • source =sick person + congenitally
    ​
  • trans. method =
    1)airborne (airdrop)
    2)vertical/transplacental
    ​
  • gate =mucous membranes of upper resp. tract

pathogenesis:
(cytopathogenic)
- E1 &E2 Attach, penetrate
- virus replicates and starts spreading from resp tract to lymphnodes. then to skin causing a rash
- pregnant women can pass it to fetus causing CRS and future complications like cataracts and deafness

24
Q

clinical manifestations of rubella

A
  • mild fever + Mild catarrhal
    symptoms
  • NON ITCHY Maculopopular Rash; Forcchheimer spots (starts on FACE and travels down
  • enlarged posterior cervical & occipital lymph nodes
  • Congenital Rubella Syndrome (CRS)
25
Q

pathogenicity of mumps

A
  • source =sick person
    ​
  • trans. method =
    1)airborne (airdrop)
    2)direct contact (with contaminated saliva)
    ​
  • gate =mucous membranes of upper resp. tract
    ​
    pathogenesis:
    (cytopathogenic)
  • HN (attachment), F, Nucleoprotein
  • virus initiates lytic infection in cells of upper resp.tract
    then spreads from mouth to parotoid glands, Causing Parotitis
  • they enter the blood, causing viremia and spread throughout the body reaching testes, ovaries, brain
    -swelling from mumps can cause infertility in men
26
Q

clinical manifestations of mumps

A
  • fever + headache
  • enlarged parotoid glands and salivary glands
    • so Difficulty chewing
  • complications of infertility
27

treatment of measles

A

only symptomatic treatment

28
Q

treatment of rubella

A

only symptomatic treatment

29
Q

treatment of mumps

A

Anti-mumps (donor)
immunoglobulins
+
symptomatic treatment

30

A

(live) measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine

31
