What is structure of paramyxoviridae?
enveloped, neg sense RNA, replicate in cytoplasm, F ptn to induce fusion of envelope w/ plamsa mem
What glycoptn doe Measles virus have?
hemaglutinin
What glycoptn does parainfluenza virus and mumps have?
hemaglutinin, neuraminidase
What glycoptn does RSV have?
glycoptn
What is function of paramyxoviridae glycoptns?
bind receptors on susceptible cells
What viruses are includeded in paramyxoviridae?
Measles, mumps, paraflu, RSV
What are clinical manifestations of measles?
erythematous maculopapular lesions begin on face spread to tunk/extremities, prodrome of fever, cough, coryza, conjunctivitis; Koplick's spots, fever
Pathogenesis of measles?
enters and replicates in resp, viral shedding, spreads to LN, enters bld, spreads to target organs - CNS, skin, urinary tract, recovery in 2 wks leads to lifelong immunity
What are symptoms of measles in immune suppressed?
high mortality rate, giant cell pneumonia, bacterial inf
What dx causes acute dimmeninated encephalomyelitis?
measles
How is measles diagnosed?
3 C's, fever, rash, acute and convalescent Ab titers
What are symptoms of mumps?
parotitis, fever
What are complications of mumps?
orchitis, meningitis, pancreatitis
Pathogenesis of mumps?
enters resp tract via droplets, spread to LN, viremia, goes to salivary glands, testes, CNS, pancreas, 20 day incubation
How is mumps diagnosed?
acute and convalescent Ab titer, anti-viral IgM, isolation from resp secretions
What are symptoms of parainfluenza?
serious lower resp inf in infants and elderly, croup in 3mos-young child, common cold in kids and adults
What is croup?
dyspnea from inflm of airway, bark-like cough
What virus causes 60% of croup?
paraflu
What is pathogenesis of croup?
upper resp inf, spread by cell fusion, replication in subglottic epi leading to necrosis and edema -> airway obstruction
Why is reinfection w/ paraflu common?
no cross-protection b/t serotypes, is a mucosal inf and IgA has short half-life
What are disease assoc of RSV?
bronchitis, pneumonia, cold
RSV season? and tmission?
winter/spring; large drop secretions on hands and fomites
What inc risk of RSV inf?
day care, infants in house w/ school age kids, tobacco exposure, lack of breast feeding
What is pathogenesis of RSV?
virus on hands/fomite -> autoinnoculation of nasal mucosa, replication and spread, IgM, A, G made, inflm in resp tract b/c CD4 and 8 cells and monocytes
What is structure of orthomyxoviridae?
enveloped, SS RNA, segmented genome
Describe grp A ortho flu
subtypes based on hemagglutinin and neuraminidase, most pathogenic, zoonotic so same subtype infects diff't species
Describe grp B ortho flu
species specific, many serotypes
Describe pathogenesis of ortho virus
inhalation of virus, replicationin resp, IFN and cytokines produced causing fever, malaise, desq. of epi - bacterial superinf, T cell clear inf cells and Ab protects against getting same serotype
Clinical manifestations of ortho flu
fatigue, chills, myalgia, fever, cough, sore throat, rhinorrhea
Complications of ortho flu?
pneumonia (1ary flu highly fatal, or 2ary bacterial inf - S pneumo), bronchitis, otitis media, exacerbation of asthma, Reye syndrome
Ag variation of ortho flu A by?
Ag shift and drift
Ag variation of ortho flu B by?
Ag drift
How does Ag shift occur?
dual inf of animal w/ 2 diff't flu A resulting in pandemics
How does Ag drift occur?
by mutation of HA or NA causing epidemics
What are 3 types of ortho flu currently circ?
A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B viruses
How is ortho flu tx?
neuraminidase inhibitors - zanamivir, oseltamivir
What immune response does killed prep of flu vaccine elicit?
IgG, no IgA or CTL
What immune response does live-attenuated flu vaccine elicit?
IgA and IgG
Characteristics of rubella?
togavirus family, + sense RNA
What is pathogenesis of rubella?
enters resp and replicates, virus shed, spreads to LN - lymphadenophaty, enters bld spreads to target organs, IC deposition, joint pain, rash, CNS, fetal anomalies, urinary tract
What are clinical manifestations of rubella?
rash, low grade fever, lymphadenopathy, joint pain
What are clinical manifestations of fetal rubella inf?
SAB, cataracts, heart defects, deafness
How is rubella diagnosed?
antiviral IgM detection, acute and convalescent Ab titers, virus isolation from throat or urine
