Polio vaccine
live virus
Smallpox vaccine
live virus
Adenovirus vaccine
live virus
swimming pool conjuctivitis
Adenovirus
where is Herpes dormant?
type 1: trigeminal ganglia

aka Rubeola, caused by paramyxovirus: Klopik's spots
Rubella
German measles or 3 day measles, rash begins on face then spreads downward
Burkitt's lymphoma
EBV
Congenital infections
CMV, Herpes Simplex, and Treponema pallidum
CMV treatment
gancyclovir
Window period
period in Hepatitis B infection when HbsAg nor HbsAb can be detected in serum (they are in equal number and are removed from circulation)
molluscum contagiosum
caused by poxviurs: they are umbilicated flesh colored papules, reproduces in the cytoplasm, produces intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies
rev
promoter that revs up viral activity. HIV has multiple reading frames, allowing for tat, rev, neg, or gag, pol, env.

Rev binds to env to decrease splicing so revs up reading of gag, pol, and env to produce virions
env
codes for envelope proteins that become glycosylated to form gp120 and gp41=gp160 and bind to CD4 receptors on t cells
pol
encodes for protease, integrase and reverse transcriptase enzymes
gag
group antigen in retroviruses, code for structural proteins
Dane particle and components
HbsAg: antibodies are protective
HbeAg: if secreted indicates active infection
HbcAg: antibodies are not protective
RNA viruses
single stranded, enveloped, helical symmetry, replicate in cytoplasm. exceptions: 3 non enveloped: Picorna, Calici, Reoviridae. reo, picorna, toga, flavi, calici have icosahedral symmetry. retro and orthomyxo undergo replication in the nucleus
DNA viruses
double stranded, icosahedral, replicate in nucleus *except parvovaridae (single stranded=Par one). Poxviridae- does not have icosahedral symmetry= pox in a box. also replicates in cytoplasm.

HHAPPPY
Herpes, Hepadna, Pox (have envelopes)
Papova, Adeno, Parvo (are naked)
Hepatitis C
single stranded RNA virus belonging to Flavaviridae family
How to diagnose Hepatitis A
detect anti-HAV IgM
Hepatitis B
HbsAg appears in blood early after infection, before acute illness. Disappears within 4-6 months. HBeAg appears during early acute phase and disappears before HBsAg. HBcAg- in nuclei of infected hepatocytes- not generally in circulation except in Dane particle. anti-HBc is present as long as there is ongoing HBV replication.
atypical lymphocytes
seen in mononucleosis, cmv, viral hepatitis, toxoplasmosis, rubella, mumps, measles
Viruses with latency?
Herpes, Adenovirus
Retroviruses
dependent on reverse transcriptase enzyme. builds complementary DNA strand for viral RNA, builds DNA complementary to 1st DNA strand, degrades original RNA
Condyloma acuminatum
papilloma causes these lesions (benign tumors). can become malignant
paramyxovirus
includes measles, mumps, parainflueza (croup, rsv). have glycoprotein spikes
SSPE
rare and late manifestation of measles. progressive encephalitis involving white and gray matter
Rotavirus
causes diarrhea in infants.
RNA virus with double shelled capsid
tumor viruses
Human T-cell lymphoma/leukemia virus (HTLV) and papillomavirus
Hantavirus transmission
deer mice
St. Louis encephalitis
spread by mosquitos
Colorado tick fever
spread by wood tick. causes fever, headache, retro-orbital pain, myalgia
Yellow fever
transmitted by mosquitoes, causes fever and jaundice
Dengue fever
mosquito vector. aka breakbone fever
Hepatitis E
enterically transmitted, single stranded RNA virus
Rubella and pregnancy
highest risk during first trimester- check Rubella immune status
RSV
Respiratory Syncytial virus: causes pneumonia and bronchiolitis in infants, cold symptoms in older children- treat with ribavarin
Western equine encephalitis
caused by an alphavirus
Hantavirus transmission
deer mice
Flaviviruses
St. Louis incephalitis, yellow fever, dengue fever
St. Louis encephalitis
spread by mosquitos
Colorado tick fever
spread by wood tick. causes fever, headache, retro-orbital pain, myalgia
Yellow fever
transmitted by mosquitoes, causes fever and jaundice
Dengue fever
mosquito vector. aka breakbone fever
Hepatitis E
enterically transmitted, single stranded RNA virus

Respiratory Syncytial virus: causes pneumonia and bronchiolitis in infants, cold symptoms in older children- treat with ribavarin
Western equine encephalitis
caused by an alphavirus
Flaviviruses
St. Louis incephalitis, yellow fever, dengue fever
Herpes Simplex virus complications
common cause of blindness- virus attacks conjunctiva. Giant multinucleate cells. Encephalitis usually involves temporal lobe, has high mortality
Adenovirus
type 8 associated with keratoconjunctivitis, 3 and 4 associated with swimming pool conjunctivitis. causes viral sore throat in young people living in close quarters.
Dane particle
indicates intact Hepatitis B. e antigen and HBsAg
Negri bodies
pathognomonic for Rabies (but not always found). cytoplasmic inclusions in nerve cells of spinal cord and brain
Measles
causes maculopapular rash, 4 day fevers, 4 C's: cough, coryza, conjunctivitis, Klopik's spots
