Part 5 Flashcards
The virus multiplies rapidly within the cell.
A.) Viral overload
B.) Cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
A.) Viral overload
Occurs when host immune cells identify virally-infected cells and kills them.
A.) Viral overload
B.) Cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
B.) Cytocidal effect
Cytocidal = other cells killed those cells
cytotoxic T-cells
Natural killer cells
Virus inhibits the metabolic functions of the host cell (DNA replication, transcription, and translation).
A.) Viral overload
B.) Cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
The number of viruses (referred to as the viral load) exceeds the dimensions of the cell, causing the cell to lyse.
A.) Viral overload
B.) Cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
A.) Viral overload
When cells are infected with viruses, sometimes ________ can form. These are giant, multinucleated cells that result from the fusing of several virally-infected cells.
(cytomegalo virus)
Syncytia
sin sitia
When cells are infected with viruses, sometimes ________ can form. This causes the formation of inclusion bodies, which are little pockets within the cell where the viruses can multiply greatly.
(EBV)
Negri bodies
EBV = Epstein Bar Virus
The virus infects surrounding cells, starting a new growth cycle.
A.) Viral overload
B.) Cytocidal effect
C.) Non-cytocidal effect
A.) Viral overload
