40
Q

Which cell layer initially becomes infected with CPV

A

Basal cells (from contact with mucosa or injury to skin)

41
Q

Where in epidermis are E6 and E7 of CPV produced

A

Basal/deep layers

E6 and E7 amplify viral genome

42
Q

Where in epidermis are L1 and L2 of CPV expressed

A

Closer to epidermal surface

Capsid proteins, viral assembly

43
Q

What happens once CPV-infected KC is sloughed

A

KC lyses, and viral particles are released to their neighbors

44
Q

T or F: IgG against CPV can help prevent future CPV infections

A

True. IgG blocks CPV entry into basal cells

45
Q

T or F: IgG against CPV can resolve a current infection

A

False

CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY RESOLVES INFECTION

46
Q

What type of immunity is needed to clear CPV: humoral or cell-mediated

A

Cell mediated

47
Q

What happens to CPV in each layer of the epidermis

A

Basale: CPV infects basal cells

Stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum: CPV replicates. Large keratohyalin granules in SG

Stratum corneum: New virus released from here. Koilocytes

48
Q

Which tumor suppressor gene does E6 affect

A

p53

49
Q

Which tumor suppressor gene does E7 affect

A

pRb

50
