Q

Rabies Aetiology with genotypes, pathology, shedding, detection

A

Rabies has 15 genotypes, and has 3 forms: urban, sylvatic and bat
it occurs worldwide
Rhabdoviridae, Lyssavirus, Rabies virus

cytoplasmic inclusion bodies that are negri bodies in the nerve cells

it sheds the virus in the saliva before clinical signs can even appear! (it replicates in the salivary gland)

ELISA is NOT used, IF and PCR

herbivoris = dead end host

not uniform, not resistant, NOO HAEMATOGENIC SPREAD!! only along the nerve cells

cats - furious rabies
humans can get infected through direct contact with bats
cytoplasmic inclusion bodies
aggressiveness is a frequent sign of rabies
humans are not very susceptible
increased sex drive is a frequent sign of rabies
foxes maintain sylvatic cycle in europe
incubation 2-8w
dogs have to be observed for 14 days if they have bitten humans
immunofluorescence detection
urban rabies is maintained by dogs and cats
herbivores are dead end hostspost exposition vaccine
purulent encephalitis in negri bodies
we can use live vaccines in fox rabies
shed in high titre in the saliva
vaccinated with attenuated bait vaccine
may be vaccinated post exposition
changed behaviour as typical signs
live vaccines are used

Q

Rabies clinical forms, way of infection, shedding, incubation, phases

A

furious rabies: alteration of behavior
silent rabies: paralysis

infection through bite - stays at the site of the infection, replicates and climbs up the nerve cells while there is NO viraemia

shedding happens before clinical signs appear, the incubation can be 2-8 weeks in general, but in humans can be 2 years

Introductory Phase - shyness, anorexia
Excitation Phase - aggressiveness
Paralysis Phase - jaw paralysis, salivation

enzootic form
high morbidity
cross protection between the resp form and this one, but NOT with the haemagglutinating one

so:
alpha-avian
beta-ovine
gamma-feline
delta-bovine
epsilon - fish
lenti - immunosuppressive, not oncogenic
lifelong carriage
carry an integrase enzyme
malignant transformation of host cells!
enveloped virus with very low resistance
they are unstable - genetic changes happen really fast
very stenoxen viruses
immunosuppression
integrate into the genome of the host cells
reverse transcriptase: RNA viruses
lifelong infection
not very resistant causing permanent infection
high host specificity
carried lifelong
transcribe their nucleic acid into dna
generally narrow host range
converst RNA of retroviruses into DNA
shed in infected lymphoid cells
proliferation of the lymphoid cells
spread with infected lymphocytes
incorporate into the genome
widely distributed in hungary
