M1: Immune Response Flashcards
Route: Barriers are maternal antibodies. Rubella & Cytomegalovirus.
Maternal neonatal
Route: Barriers are saliva, IgA & mucous. Polio.
Oral
Route: Barriers are antibody & interferon. Eastern equine encephalitis virus, yellow fever virus & rabies.
Insect or animal bite
Route: Barriers are antibody, T cells. Cytomegalovirus, HIV, HTLV, Hepatitis B, C & D.
Injection, blood products & transplant
Route: Barriers are for female IgA, IgG & mucous. Male: skin. HSV, HIV & human pappilomavirus.
Sexual
Route: Barriers are skin & mucous. HSV, human papillomavirus.
Contact
Route: Barriers are IgA & mucous. Influenza.
Respiratory
Route: Barriers are saliva, IgA & mucous. Polio.
Oral
Is inhaled. Initiates replication in the lung, activates interferon and local inflammatory responses. Initiates viremia and spreads to T cells and lymphatics, liver, spleen. Initiates viremia. Spreads to skin and cause lesions on skin.
Varicella
Is generated against the viral attachment protein or structure
Protective antibody
Protective antibody: fiber protein
Adenovirus
Protective antibody: hemagglutinin
Influenza A virus
Protective antibody: capsid structure forming a valley
Poliovirus
Protective antibody: G glycoprotein
Rabies virus
Promote the expression of proteins for the antiviral that are activated by virus infection, activate NK cells.
IFN a & b
Activate macrophage to become a killer cell and producer of IL-12, an inducer of T helper 1 responses.
IFN y
Antigen presenting cell and upon activation by IFN-y, will promote inflammatory killing of internalized microbes
Macrophage
MHC independent killing of infected cells. Antibody dependent cellular cytotoxic killing of infected cells
NK cells
Helper T cells that promote the antiviral response by producing cytokines. Promote apoptosis of infected cells through Fas-Fasl.
CD4 T cells
MHC I restricted killing of infected cells antibody. Neutralization of virus.
CD8 T cells
Are produced by the infected cell and activate antiviral response in surrounding cells, activate NK cells, and also enhance immune response.
IFN a & b
Is produced by NK or T cells as part of the cellular innate or immune responses.
IFN-y
Method of Transmission: establishment of sufficient viremia to allow arthropod to acquire virus during a blood meal
Arthropods
Method of Transmission: stability to drying and heat, as for a naked capsule.
Fomites
