17
Q

In Vitro vs in vivo

A

Vitro= “within glass”

normal cells form

A

monolayer and stick to glass or plastic

19

transformed cells (tumor cells)

A

pile on top of each other

20

diploid cell line

A

50 passages

22
Q

continuous cell ine

A

can be cultured indefinitely (HeLa cells)

23
Q

cytopathic effect

A

causing cells to deteriorate as they multiply
(grainy, irregular clusters, cell enlargment)

24
Q

inclusion bodies

A

particles of aggregated proteins (dense and spherical)

25
Q

syncytia

A

multinucleate (lots of fusions of unicellular masses)

26

causes Burkitt’s lymphoma
aggressive
most common cause of childhood cancer in central Africa
effects jaw, CNS, bowel, kidneys, ovaries, etc.

28

HPV

A

causes warts, usually benign but can become carcinomas

29

latent virus
unilateral rash

30

circular RNA molecule with a. single and double-stranded regions
mostly plant pathogens
80x smaller than a virus
only human disease is hepatitis d

35
Q

Prp-C vs Prp-Sc

A

Prp-C: normal, sensitive to being broken down, mainly in neurons in the brain
Prp-SC: disease-causing form, develops spongiform disease (SC stands for Scrapie, infectious disease in sheep)

36
Q

Spongiform disease

A

Astrocytes digest dead neurons created by the Prp-SC leaving holes = spongiform disease (CJD most common spongiform disease in humans)

37
Q

Prp-Sc acquired by

A

eating infected tissue
inheriting mutation in the gene for Prp-C
transplants
