Hallmark of EBV infection
polyclonal B cell proliferation
Incidence of MONO is greatest…
2nd decade exposure to EBV
Process of IM
incubation 1-2 months lymporeticular dissemination Prodromal 2-5 days symmetrical lymphadenopathy Palatal exanthem
What immune cell increases and cause smptoms
B and T cells proliferate
T cells ar eatypical Downey bodies
T cell response causes disease
IM Agent Structure
Gamma Herpevirus
Envelope Ds Stranded DNA genome
Latenc in B cells
EBV 1 EBV 2
EBV Epidemiology
Person 2 Person Replicated in B cells, shed into SALIVA 1 month or life KISSING Disease Low contagious
Peak age of incidence HBV
17-25
EBV Latency
10 genes are expressed during latency ( differnt than HSV)
EBV Diagnosis
Presence atypical lymphocytes Heterophile antibodies present in IM IgM heterophile, paul-bunnell on rbc MONOSPOT serology tests useful for infants and small children IgG are permanent
IM Treatment
symptomatic relief
IM complications
rash w/ amox
Splenic rupture, NOT COMMON
Post transplatn Lymphoproliferative disease
immune suppressed,
virus exposure or latency reactivation
Burkitt Lymphoma
dysregulation of c-MYC, EBV is co-contributory
Non hogkins lymphoma
HIV and transplant receivein cyclosporin A
Hodgkins Disease
EBV role in pathogenesis
CMV affects what population the most
