    RNA = genome can replicate new viral RNA from cytoplasmic viral mRNA via own viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase or make viral DNA from RNA via RNA-dependent DNA polymerase -> use target cell nuclear and cytoplasmic organelles to transcribe/translate new proteins and viral RNA

    Non envelopped = via cell lysis only
    Envelopped = by budding from cell membrane usually no lysis (except herpèsvirus)
38
Q

What are mechanisms of genomic change?***

A

  2. Antigenic shift = when 2 or more different strains of the same virus or strains of 2 or more different virus combine (reassortment) to form new virus (when infect the same cell)
    Also occurs from recombination = IN DNA VIRUS rearrangement within viral genome and deletion or duplication of viral genes and acquisition of unrelated genetic material = occurs when strand of DNA is broken
  3. Reassortment = ONLY IN RNA VIRUS because they have discrete genomic segments (like chromosome) that behave independently of one another = during viral replication
  4. Defective interfering viruses = DNA, RNA = virus that can’t replicate by themselves = compete with nondefective viral genomes for limited supply of replication enzymes

  3. FeLV C = point mutation (antigenic drift), anemia, R = FeLVCR
  4. FeLV T = infects LT, immunodeficiency syndrome, R = FePit1
    FeLIX = secreted by LT = restrict tropism to LT
    VIRUS PRODUCE REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE (REOVIRUS) TO TRANSCRIBE VIRAL RNA INTO PROVIRAL DNA = INSERTION INTO CHROMOSOMAL LT
    FOCMA expressed on cell membranes of transformed cells (not found on infected, non transformed cell)

Q

Blastomycosis adhesion

A

BAD1 : blastomyces adhesion factor 1 = adhesion to CR3, CD14 on alveolar macrophage cell membrane

77
Q

Pathogenesis of tuberculosis

A

Enters macrophages by phagocytosis mediated by receptors MBL and CR3 -> blocks phagolysosome formation -> replicate in vesible
PAMP recognized by innate immune receptors :
- lipoarabinomannan binds TLR2
- unmethylated CpG nucleotides bind TLR9
IFNy stimulates defensins, autophagy, prod of NO
Macro activated by IFNy differenciate into epithelioids = form granuloma

78
Q

What are lepra cells?

A

In leprosis, they are lipid laden macrophages filled with mass globi acid-fast bacilli
Multibacillary because abundant bacilli

79
Q

How is aspergillus recognized by alveolar macrophages?

A

Via TLR2 and lectin-dectin-1 = reconnait beta-1,3-glucan in cell wall -> activate phagocytes

80
Q

Leishmaniasis virulence factors

A
  • Lipophosphoglycan = glycocalyx that activates complement but prevent MAC insertion -> opsonize with C3b binds MAC-1 and CR1 = phagocytosis
  • Gp63 = proteinase that cleave complement and some lysosomal enzymes
81
Q

Dx methods for cells in mitosis, apoptosis

A

Mitosis : Ki67, PCNA, AgNOR
Apoptosis : caspase, annexin, TUNEL
