Q

rhabdoviridae life cycle

A
  • entry = membrane fusion, take up by endocytosis and that acid of endoscope -> triggers fusions
  • raps rna in nuceloprotein; can’t produce any protein until transcribe genome -> mrna which can turn into varied of different proteins
  • exit= via budding

Q

rabies pathogenesis

A

inoculation from bite of rabid animal -> local replicaiton -> attachment and infection or peripheral nerves at motor end plate -> retrograde spread w/ in axoplasm of peripheral nerves -> spread to spinal cord and brain -> replicate in brain -> centrifugal spread from brain to salivary glands and other tissues -> secretion into saliva and transmission via biting

    1. endothelial damage ->
    1a. vascular occlusion -> tissue edema or epithelial sloughing bc loss microvasculature
    1b. hemorrhage
    2. cell associated viremia (prolonged) -> new vectors become infected by feeding on viremic animal

- d+ in intensively reared young animals (neonatal scours)

82
Q

rotavirus transmission and stablity

A
  • fecal oral transmission

- v stable in environment

83
Q

rotavirus pathogenesis

A
  • infects mature enterocytes and enteroendocrine cells in proximal ileum, crypt cells = spared
  • mature enterocytes = infected at tip; kill apical enterocyte villi which become blunted and loose ability to absorb and get inc fluid and electrolyte loss
  • enteroendocrine cells = infected (along with enterocytes) then produce serotonin -> inc mobility and peristalsis of gut
  • virus release its own toxin -> secretion cl- ions -> water loss
  • epithelial cells stop secreting disaccharide like lactase -> change osmotic conditions -> bacteria overgrowth
  • NOT leakage dx bc gut enterocyte tigh junctions remain tight
