what is a localized infection?
|
virus replication and spread is restricted to body surface through which it entered the host
|
|
what systems are acute localized infections often found in?
|
respiratory tract and alimentary tract
|
|
what are examples of viruses that cause acute, localized infection of the intestinal tract?
|
rotavirus, coronavirus
|
|
what are examples of viruses that cause acute, localized infection of the respiratory tract?
|
influenza virus, rhinovirus
|
|
what is enteritis?
|
an acute localized viral infection of the intestinal tract infection
|
|
what are some examples of enteric virus infections?
|
rotavirus, coronavirus, calicivirus, astrovirus, adenovirus, parvovirus
|
|
what occurs in a normal intestine epithelia?
|
normal absorption >>>> Normal Secretion = NET ABSORPTION
|
|
where do most enteric viruses replicate?
|
mature villous epithelium
|
|
where does parvovirus replicate?
|
in crypt cells
|
|
what type of infection is parvovirus?
|
a systemic infection with clinical signs principally due to intestinal damage
|
|
the loss of mature villous epithelium results in?
|
loss of absorptive cells (causing malabsorption), loss of brush border disaccharidases/peptidases (causing maldigestion), undigested and unabsorbed food particles in lumen of gut osmotically traps water in lumen, crypt epithlium proliferates and migrates out of crypt at an accelerated rate in attempting to replace absorptive/digestive cells that are destroyed (these are undifferentiated secretory cells that contribute to diarrhea by hypersecretion)
|
|
the loss of crypt cells results in?
|
damaged crypts fail to replace mature villous epithelial cells as they are shed, loss of absorptive cells, loss of cells having brush border disaccharidases, osmotic effects, slugging regeneration (loss of progenitor cells that, in fatal cases, does not ever regenerate, a condition known as mucosal collapse)
|
|
what types of influenza are there?
|
human, equine, swine, avian
|
|
how does influenza infect?
|
virus in aerosolized droplets makes contact with epithelium, virus must make attachment to prevent elimination by MCE
|
|
how does influenza virus spread?
|
via cell-to-cell + cilia movement + air movement >>> spread to all levels of respiratory tract
|
|
what does influenza result in?
|
destruction of respiratory epithelium & MCE: dead cells and inflammatory fluids spill into respiratory lumen
|
|
what does MCE stand for?
|
mucociliary escalator
|
|
influenza causes severe disease when?
|
virus-induced damage of alveoli, obstruction of airways, over-exuberant inflammatory response (cytokine storm) and secondary bacterial infection (bronchopneumonia)
|
|
how does a secondary bacterial infection occur with influenza?
|
virus induced destruction of MCE, exposure of colonization sites, cell debris and inflammatory products provied substrate for bacterial growth (protein, iron)
|
|
what is shipping fever in cattle?
|
virus-induced damage of respiratory epithelium (by herpesvirus, paramyxovirus, adenovirus) which leads to secondary bacterial infection (pasteurella multocida, mannheimia hemolyticum) leading to bronchopneumonia
|
|
what is infectious canine tracheobronchitis known as?
|
kennel cough
|
|
what occurs in infectious canine tracheobronchitis infections?
|
virus-induced damage of respiratory epithelium (canine distember, canine adenovirus, canine herpesvirus, paramyxovirus) and a secondary infection (mycoplasma spp, bordetella bronchisepticum) resulting in a persistent coubh and bronchopneumonia
|
|
what is infectious laryngotracheitis?
|
a herpesvirus infection of chickens
|
|
what occurs in infectious latrygotracheitis infections?
|
epithelial damage leads to obstruction
|
|
what is a systemic infection?
|
when virus replication and cell damage occur at sites distant to the site of virus entry
|
|
what are examples of viruses that cause systemic infection?
|
smallpox, polioencephalomyelitis, west nile infection, yellow fever, canine parvovirus
|
|
how do viral infections become systemic?
|
as a result of lymphatic/blood spread
|
|
what are the sequential steps of systemic infections resulting from lymphatic/blood spread?
|
entry & replication at site of entry, drainage to regional LNs, replication in regional LN, primary viremia (low titer) with spread to other organs, secondary viremia (high titer) with spread to other organs, clinical signs
|
|
what infection is studied as a model of smallpox?
|
mouse pox
|
|
what are mouse pox infections?
|
systemic viral spread via viremia
|
|
how do mouse pox infections occur?
|
replication in foot pad, drainage to regional LN, primary viremia (spread to spleen, liver for replication), secondary viremia (spread to spleen, liver, skin for replication), onset of clinical signs
|
|
what are smallpox infections?
|
systemic viral with viremic spread
|
|
how do smallpox infections occur?
|
entry/replication in respiratory tract, drainage to regional LN, replication in LN, primary viremia (replication in liver and spleen), secondary viremia (replication in liver, spleen, skin), onset of clinical signs
|
|
what are canine parvovirus infections?
|
unknown if systemic, experimental reproduction via oral exposure but not gastric lavage
|
|
how do canine parvovirus infections occur?
|
entry/replication in pharynx, drainage to regional LN, replication in LN, primary viremia (replication in bone, marrow, thymus, spleen), secondary viremia (replication in intestinal crypt, epithelium), onset of clinical signs
|
|
what happens with vaccines for enteric coronavirus and rotavirus?
|
usually ineffective
|
|
what happens with vaccines for anine parvovirus 2 infections?
|
highly effective
|
|
what occurs with viruses that become systemic as a result of spread in nerves?
|
entry/replication at site of entry (muscle cells), cell-to-cell spread in muscle then attachment/penetration of nerve endings, retrograde (centrepetal) spread in axoplasm of nerves to CNS, replication in CNS, onset of clinical signs
|
|
what is an inapparent infection?
|
an infection without clinical signs
|
|
how do inapparent infections occur?
|
result of infection by attenuated or avirulent strains of viruses, or a highly effective immune response to the infecting virus
|
|
why are inapparent infections important?
|
epidemiologicly, they represent unrecognized sources for virus dissemination
