Q

What do the two things in the env gene do?

A

gp120: binds to CD4 and CCR5 in macrophage or CXCR4 in CD4 cells

gp41 is fusion and entry

Q

Squamous cell carcinoma and large B cell lymphoma can both happen in AIDs. What are they associated with?

A

B lymphoma is EBV

Squamous is HPV

17
Q

When do you start prophylaxis with HIV?

For what prophylactic treatment?

A

CD4<50 is azithromycin for Mycobacterium avium

18
Q

What are the protease inhibitors?

A

-Navir (Navir tease a proTEASE)

19
Q

Indinavir side effects

A

same as other protease inhib + nephrolithisasis and hematuria

20
Q

Atazanivir side effects?

A

same as protease inhibitors with also…

Increased bilirubin and nephrolithiasis (kidney and renal)

21
Q

Protease inhibitors common side effects?

A

Nausea, diarrhea, hyperglycemia and lypodystrophy

22
Q

How do NRTIs work?

A

Nucleoside analogs, and is lacking 3’ OH and stops polymerization

They are competitive inhibitors

THEY MUST BE ACTIVATED by thymidine kinase

23
Q

Bone marrow suppression is caused by what anti HIV drug?

A

Zidovudine

24
Q

Pancreatitis from anti HIV drug?

A

didanosine

25
Q

Which NRTI is not a nucleosie but is instead a nucleotide?

A

Tenofovir is nucleoTide and doesn’t need to be activated

26
Q

What are the NRTI’s?

A

Zoos Like Dem African Elephants

Zidovudine
Lamivudine
Didanosine (pancreatitis)
Abacavir (hypersensitivity)
Emtricitabine

and other vudines

27
Q

What anti HIV can cause life threatening hypersensitivity?

A

Abacavir

28
Q

Mechanism on NNRTIs?

A

Noncompetivitely bind reverse transcriptase and don’t need to be phosphorylates

29
Q

What anti HIV drug can cause neuropsychiatric symptoms?

A

Efavirenz (also test positive for cannibioids, makes sense)

30
Q

What is side effect common to all NNRTIs?

A

Rash and hepatotoxicity

31
Q

Mechanism of enfuvirtide?

A

gp41 so prevents enFUsion

32
Q

Mechanism of Maraviroc?

A

CCR5 antagonist so gp120 can’t bind macrophage effectively.

Must do tropism test to make sure it is R5 virus (only used in all R5)

33
Q

Mechanism of raltegravir? side effect?

A

inhibits integrase. hypercholesterolemia (but she didn’t say it)

34
Q

What can CMV cause if you have HIV?

A

Retinitis )

Interstitial pneumonia
