DNA virus - diagram
DNA virus –> 1. complex nucleocapsid 2. icosahedral nucleocapsid
1. DNA virus –> complex nucleocapsid –> envelop –> DS linear –> poxvirade –> a. smallpox b. molloscum contagiosum c. cowpox
2. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> a. enveloped
b. non envelop
A. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> enveloped:
- DS circular –> HEPADNAVIRIDAE (HBV)
- DS linear –> HERPESVIRIDAE (HSV1, HSV2, CMV, EBV, HHV6-8, VZV)
B. DNA virus –> icosahedral nucleocapsid –> nonenveloped:
- DS linear –> Adenoviridae
- DS circular –> Papovaviridae (Papillomavirus, Polyomavirus)
- SS linear –> Parvoviridae (B19)
Adenovirus - causes
- febrile pharyngitis (sore throat)
- Acute hemorrhagic cystitis
- Pneumonia
- Conjunctivitis (“pink eye”)
Papillomavirus (HPV) causes
- warts (serotypes 1,2, 6, 11) (condylomata acuminata on genitalis -6, 11)
- Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (most commonly 16, 18)
- Cervical cancer (most commonly 16, 18)
- penile/anal cacrinoma (most commonly 16, 18)
- head and neck cancer (mc 16)
B19 virus causes
- aplastic crisis in sickle cell disease, thalassemia β, hereditary spherocytosis,
- slapped cheeks (erythema inectiosum or fifth disease)
- during pregnancy RBCs destruction –> fetal death (1st trimester), hydrops fetalis (2nd trimester), not significant in 3rs trimester
- RBCs destruction also leads to Rheumatoid arthritis - like symptoms and pure RBC aplasia
poxvirus - viruses?
a. smallpox b. molloscum contagiosum c. cowpox
cowpox causes
milkmaid blisters
Moloscum contagiosum - presentation
flesh colored papule with central umblication
HHV-6 causes
Roseola infantum (exanthem subitum) (6th disease)
HHV-7 causes
Roseola infantum (exanthem subitum) (6th disease) (LESS COMMONLY)
Roseola infantum (exanthem subitum) (6th disease) - presentation
high fevers for several days that can seizures, followed by a diffuse macular rash
CMV is also called / transmission
HHV-5
- congenitally
- transfusion
- sexual contact
- saliva
- urine
- transplant
CMV (HHV-5) causes
- mononucleosis with (-) Monospot in immunocompoment)
- congenital infection
- in immunocompromised patients (pneumonia, retinitis, hepatitis, encephalitis, neuropathy) –> esp pneumonia in transplant
CMV (HHV-5) retinitis?
AIDS retinitis –> hemorrhage, cotton-wool exudates, vision loss
CMV (HHV-5) latent in / histology
mononuclear cels
characteristic “owl eye” inclusions
EBV is AKA / transmission
HHV-4
resp secretions, saliva
EBV (HHV-4) causes
- Mononucleosis
- endemic Burkit lymphoma
- Hodgkin lymphoma
- nasopharyngeal carcinoma
- primary CNS lymphoma in immunocompromised patients)
- Hairy leukoplakia (HIV+, organ transplant recipients)
Hairy leukoplakia is occurs in
HIV+, organ transplant recipients
VZV - transmission / aka
respiratory secretions
HHV-3
VZV causes
- chickenbox
- shingles
- encephalitis
- pneumonia
- Acute disseminated (postinfectious) encephalomyelitis (after)
HSV-1 causes
- oral lesions (gingivostomatitis, herpes labialis)
- keratinoconjuctivitis
- temporal lobe encephalitis
- genital lesions (rare) (herpes genitalis)
- herpes whitlow
- Kluver-Bucy
HSV-1 - temporal lobe encephalitis - presentation
- altered mental status
- seizures
- aphasia
HSV-2 causes
- Herpes genitalis
- neonatal herpes
- oral lesion (rare)
- herpes whitlow
HSV identification - process
- viral culture for skin/genitalia
- CSF pcr for herpes encephalitis
- Tzanck test - a smear of an opened skin vesicle to detect multinucleated giant cells commonly seen in HSV1, 2 and VZV infection
- Intranuclear inclisions also seen with HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV
Viral vaccines - categories and viruses
A. Live attenuated vaccines (1. smallpox 2. yellow fever 3. rotavirus 4. VZV 5. Sabin polio 6. Influenza (intransal) 7. Measles 8. Mumps 9. Rubella)
B. Killed (1. Rabies 2. Influenza (injected) 3. Salk Polio 4. HAV)
C. Subunit (1. HBV (antigen=HBsAg) 2. HPV (types 6, 11, 16, 18))
6th disease?
