Legionella and staph <100
Psuedomonas and aspergillosis <50
Pathophys HIV infections and associated drug targets
- Binding to CD4+ cell via a few receptors including CCR5 or CXCR4 (CCR5 inhibitor)
- Fusion with plasma membrane (fusion inhibitor)
- RNA-→ DNA via reverse trasncriptase (Nucleoside RTI)
- DNa incorporated into host DNA via integrase (integrate inhibitor)
- Then can replicate and produce more virus, proteases further process the proteins for virus replication (protease inhibitors)
When does acute retroviral syndrome occur after inoculation?
4-6 weeks after
How long doses it take ofor CD4 counts to drop?
Initial infection results in a reduction in circulating CD4 + T cells, which is followed by a recovery to nearly normal levels and a subsequent slow fall of about 50 to 100 cells/mm 3 per year.
-In contrast, the CD4 + T cells residing within the gastrointestinal tract are rapidly depleted early on.
chronic inflammation in HIV patients due to?
- low grade HIV replication
- recurrent infections and re-activations
- immune response to HIV
- impaired mucosal integrity and bacterial translocation
Clinical features of acute retroviral syndrome
fever, headache, myalgia, arthralgia, pharyngitis, night sweats, x 14 days ash
- morbilliform eruption that is generalized, face and trunk predominantly, 4-5 days
- occasionally can get oral and anal ulcers
Infectious complications HIV (list)
- Viral
- HSV
- VZV
- Molluscum
- Bacterial
- Fungal
How is HSV different in HIV?
- more persistent, frequent, larger/deeper/more extensive, non-healing
- can occur in mobile, unattached oropharynx and esophagus
