HTLV HIV 91-92 Flashcards
HTLV
Enveloped
diploid
+ ssRNA
Icosahedral
HIV
Enveleoped
Diploid
+ssRNA
Helical
HIV HTLV Mechanism
Reverse Transcriptase RNA –> DNA
Integrase–> into host genome
Two genera of viruses that infect humans
Lentiviruses
Oncoviruses
What links to HTLV 1
T cell leukemia
HAM/TSP
What links to HTLV 2
Milder neurologic
Pulmonary disorders
HIV Structure
Membrane proteins gp 120 and gp 41 Helical Core matrix/ Proteins Enzymes; protease, integrase, transcriptase RNA diploid
HIV genomes
gag
pol
env
Gag of HIV codes for
capsid, core and matrix proteins
Pol of HIV codes for
Three viral enzymes
ENV of HIV codes for
Two envelope glycoproteins
Receptors used for entry in HIV
CD4
CXC R4
CCR5
Host Cells that HIV gain access
T Lymphocytes
Monocytes
Dendritic Cells
HIV binds what receptor in Dendritic?
DC SIGN– high affinity for ICAM-3
7 steps of HIV life cycle
- Fusion
- Nucleoscapsid
- RNA converted to DNA
- v dNA into nucleus
5 activation, transcription into genome - Assembly and budding new virion
- Maturation into infectious virion
4 stages from infection to AIDS
- ACUTE HIV INFECTION
- Clinical Latency
- Early symptomatic HIV INFECTION
- AIDS
ACUTE HIV INFECTION
Infection of mononuclear cells
Mimic Infleunza
ClINICAL LATENCY IN HIV
asymptomatic
continure preogression and replication HIV in cells
Gradual Decline in T cells
Early Symptomatic HIV infection
CHRONIC SYMPTOMS/INFECTIONS hairy leukoplakia Gingivitis p neuropathy lymphadenopathy DECREASE CD4 & Increase viral load Infections not AIDS definig
Which two infections are not AIDS defining?
Oral candidiasis
SHINGLES
AID of HIV
HIV + AND
AIDS defining illness OR
CD4 count < 14%
What three illnesses are indicative of AIDS
Kaposi
Pneumocyti Jirovecci
Cryptococcus
Neurologic manifestations
HIV encephalopathy
P Neuropathies
AIDS dementia complex
HIV transmission
Blood Semen vaginal breast milk SEXUAL CONTACT IVDU
Three Categories of Clinical Diagnosis of HIV
A: Acute and Latency
B:Infections early stages
C: AIDS defining illnesses
LAB DIANOSIS
Detection of anti-HIV
- Rapid Test
- ELISA
Assess Viral Load vis what?
NATs (effective treatment)
Monitor Drug progression
TCD4 : TCD8 ration 1:1 - 6:1
If CD8 ? CD 4
What is PCR good for HIV
- Viral Load
- Diagnosis
- drug effectiveness
Classes of Treatment of HIV
- two classes of RT
- protease inhibitors
- integrase inhibitors
- fusion/entry inhibitor
HTLV Structure
HTLV-1 w/ human infections
Not cytolytic and persist long times
HTLV Genome
Same as HIV +2 genes
- tax
- HBZ
What do HTLV genes tax and HBZ do?
growth and proliferation
HTLV Clinical Manifestations
- Adult T Cell Leukemia
- HAM/TSP
- Uveitis
HTLV pathogenesis
CD 4 T cells
Tax leads to clonal ploriferation immortalization
Function of Tax gene HTLV
- secrete cytokine growth factors (IL 2 proliferat T cells)
- disrupts normal progression of cell cycle
Function of HBZ HTLV
If cell loses tax,they evade immunity
HBZ maintains oncogenesis in tax absent genes
HTLV Mode of transmission
IVDU
Blood
Sexual Transmission
HTLV Diagnosis
detection of ag or ab ELISA
Atypical Lymphocytes
Elevated WBC
Patient History
