Antivirals Flashcards
Palivizumab
monoclonal antibody against F protein; prevents pneumonia caused by RSV in premature infants
HIV env protein
= gp120 (attachment) + gp41 (penetration)
fusion inhibitor that binds to gp41
Enfuviritide
fusion inhibitor that binds CCR5 on surface of T cells, inhibiting interaction with gp120
Maraviroc
Enfuviritide and Maraviroc are what?
fusion inhibitors
What is Raltegravir?
integrase inhibitor
What is -navir?
protease inhibitor
Nevirapine,
Efavirenz,
Delaviridine
NNRTIs
gag (p24) =
HIV capsid protein
What type of virus is HIV?
+ linear ssRNA
What is the only dsRNA virus?
Rotavirus (and coltivirus = colorado tick fever)
What does HIV bind on T cells?
CCR5 (early) or CXCR4 (late) and CD4
What does HIV bind on macrophages?
CCR5 and CD4
What mutation confers HIV immunity
homozygous CCR5
ELISA/Western blot may be falsely HIV+ for newborn because?
anti-gp120 crosses the placenta
HIV patient (CD4 <100) with low-grade fevers, cough, HSM, tongue ulcer; oval yeast forms within macrophages
Histoplasma
Normal CD4 count
500-1500
Hairy leukoplakia often presents on lateral tongue in HIV+ pt and is associated with
EBV
HIV + pt w/ superficial vascular proliferation in which biopsy reveals NEUTROPHILIC inflammation

Many ring enhancing lesions in brain of HIV+ pt (CD4<100)
Toxo
Encephalopathy due to reactivation of latent virus in HIV+ pt (CD4< 200); results in demyelination
JC virus (causes PML)
HIV+ pt w/ meningitis
Cryptococus neoformans
HIV+ pt with retinitis
CMV
HIV + pt w/ superficial vascular proliferation in which biopsy reveals LYMPHOCYTIC inflammation
HHV8 - Kaposi sarcoma
HIV+ pt w/ interstitial pneumonia; biopsy reveals cells with intranuclear inclusion bodies
CMV
HIV+ pt w/ pleuritic pain, hemoptysis, infiltrates on imaging
Aspergillus
