|
what is key to the life-form of HIV?
* |
REVERSE TRANSCRIPTION
|
|
key to problem with pts with HIV (and the reason it is hard to cure)
* |
The disease has integrated into your DNA
we don't know how to get it out |
|
Causative agents for HIV? 3
|
HIV-1 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1).
HIV-2 (low-level, milder). Related – HTLV’s |
|
which is worse HIV 1 or 2?
|
HIV 1
2 is low-level and milder |
|
what is the external docking protein for HIV? (what we are trying to block to make a vaccine)
** |
GP120
|
|
what is the protein that initiates fusion of HIV with the host cell
** |
GP41
note: this is the 2nd step after GP120 has been used to dock |
|
enzyme that ultimately integrates the newly created viral DNA into the host?
** |
Integrase
|
|
What is the job of protease in HIV
|
it cleaves bigger RNA componenets into smaller ones
|
|
Reverse transcriptase does what?
|
makes the DNA/RNA and then DNA/DNA double helix that will be put into the host DNA
|
|
what leads to a mutant swarm (survival tactic, a primary pathogenic factor that makes the virus different) in HIV?
* ** |
Reverse transcriptase is mistake prone
which leads to rapid antigenic variation note: the immune system takes about 7 days to recognize a foreign antibody, and HIV is always changing, so it cannot keep up with the disease after infection |
|
Primary target cell of HIV1?
** |
CD4 T-helper (Th) cells, (basically attacks and destroys the immune system)
also macrophages and glial cells. |
|
in addition to the CD4 receptor on a T cell, what else is required to infect?
|
co-receptor (chemokine)
|
|
most likely first place where integration/virus production of HIV occurs?
|
Macrophage
|
|
HIV virus that utilizes CD4 and CCR5 receptors are known as what?
|
M-Tropic HIV 1
(m for monocyte) |
|
CXCR4 receptors are found where? Thus leads to what?
|
on T cells
after the macrophage is infected, it mutates so that it can utilize the CXCR4 co receptor on the T cell. You start to have depletion of these cells which is known as T-Tropic HIV |
|
T-Tropic HIV utilizes what receptor? And what lymph tissue is depleted?
|
CXCR4
Gut depletion |
|
in terminal forms of AIDs you will see dementia. What is this due to? What receptor is involved?
|
This is due to G-Tropic HIV1
this affects the glial cells the receptor on glial cells that acts as a co-factor is CCR3 |
|
when does HIV DNA get replicated?
|
only when the T cell is activated
|
|
KEY POINTS:
Reverse transcription-->Mutation, Genetic Diversity (escape from immunity, antivirals) Integration-->Latency, Permanence of Infection T-cell destruction-->Loss of Immune Response |
just a quick little summary
|
|
What are the three major groups of HIV1? which causes majority of infection?
|
M (major)-causes 90% of infection
N (new) O (outlier?) |
|
note: there are subgroups of HIV-M viruses..which is most common in the US?
|
the subgroup of M that is most common is in USA is
B |
|
What is a common alternate route of infection for HIV?
|
Dendritic cells
in essence they get infected and then do their job: aka they present antigens to the CD4 cells this pretty much insures HIV infection, because the dendritic cell is bringing the virus right to the cell it will destroy (the T cell)...oops |
