LA10- Viruses At Mucosal Surface Flashcards
Give 3 gut Mucosal viruses present , 2 respiratory, 3 ugt
Polio, rotavirus, norocirus
Influenza, covid
Hiv, hpv, trichamonasvirus
Which vaccines have been effective for mucosal viruses
Covid, hpv, polio (eradicated)
Which has variable responses
Influenza and rotavirus
Why is it so important hiv develop a vaccine in future
Kills 700,000 people per year
Why has it been difficult
Live attenuated too risky as hiv inserrts into host dna
Inactivated do not havee strong enough immune response
Which type of vaccine is ideally whag you want to tackle mucosal viruses (BECAUSE OF SPECIFIC EFFECTOR HOMING PROGRAMS)
Topical/local/mucosal
Eg because pearwnteral is not effective for gut immune response and you want to evoke strong Siga and cell responses
Are mucosal successful as parentedal
No, still weakly immunogenic compared to parentedal
Plus parentedal can be used for resp tract and ugt response because they get 50% igG from systemic sources
Give 4 modes of mucosal vaccination and what effect they have
Orally - suga mammary, gi tract and salivary
Intranasal- ugt, urt and lrt Siga and igG
Rectal - local Siga
Vaginal - local response
Since ugt have no malt where do their local immune responses come from
Associated lymphoid tissue eg inguinal lymph nodes
Which type of vaccine route needs an adjuvant and why
Oral
Gi tract tolerance because of constant Microbiota and food means need stronger evoking
What do adjuvants aim to induce
Release of things like baff, april
Cosrimulatory molecules like b7 on main target dc
What type of b and T cells can be induced by nasal vaccines
Memory
What would both nasal and intramuscular vaccines in future help with covid
Tackle both urt cia nalt to stop flu symptoms and then also lrt protection
What’s the difference between live attenuated and inactivated
Attenuated is where purified virus incubates with eg monkey cells and adapts to infect those cells so not as easy infecting human cells
Inactivated means they are killed
Give an example of a purified subunit vaccine
Ha influenza
What type of cloning subunit vaccine is hpv
L1 capsid protein is cloned (using yeast cell expression)
and attached to a vlp which is then inserted
What we’re viral vector vaccines originally used for before covid use of adenovirus
Ebola
How does the mrna covid vaccine work
Contained in liposome vesicles which can fuse with a cell membrane and it’s translated so cell presents spike to induce immune response
What are 3 viral vaccines licensed that are mucosal
Polio , rotavirus, influenza (flumist)
Explain the features of polio virus
Non enveloped ssrna with icosahedral capsid
4 capsid proteins line inside v1-4
How is it transmitted
Faecal oral route
Where can it go in some cases of people
Through draining lymph node to bbb and cause paralytic poliomyelitis where paralysis ef of the legs can occur (1%)
Which 2 vaccines are there for polio and whcih is better and why
Inactivated parenteral IPV
Oral live attenuated OPV
OPV is better as it induces both Siga and systemic igG responses eventually
IPV induces only igG systemically which can help only if it spreads through draining lymph node
What is the only drawback of the OPV vaccine which means it is rarely used
Small risk of vaccine associated paralytic polio since it isn’t inactivated
Which is more expensive
Ipv
Explain the lifecycle of most enteroviruses but more specifically polio
Cd155 receptor for polio induced endocytosis
Uncoatinf in acidic endosome causes +ve rna to be released
Rna then translated to form polyprotein processed and capsid proteins start to assembly
The rna is replicated via the newly translated rep machinery eg protein polio 3A by rna dep rna pol = replication
Then assembles and lyric or non lyric release
Which protein binds to rna when it’s released crucial to prime for replication
VpG
What is the importance of neutralising antibodies
Stop attachment, endocytosis and uncoating
What genome does triple capsid icosahedral non enveloped rv have
11 piece segmented ds rna
Why is this viral so important
Biggest diarrhoea death of kids under 2
Kills 450k a year
Where do 90% of death occur
Africa or Asia (where vaccine is less effective)
Which 3 antibodies help with initial infection
Anti-vp4 and 7(outer capsid proteins for attachment)
Anti-vp6 (important in endosomal attachment and assembly)
