24
Q

Viremia of AIDS decreases around

27
Crisis Phase of HIV
<200 cells/microliter Viremia spikes Cachexia Fatigue Fever >1 month
28
HIV binds to ___ on CD4 T cells
Gp120
29
HIV undergoes conformational changes due to interactions with
CCR5 protein
30
HIV crosses BBB by infecting
Monocytes - macrophages
31
Opportunistic infections
1. Pneumocystis Pneumonia 2. Candidiasis 3. Cytomegalovirus 4. TB
32
Tumors common in HIV
1. Kaposi Sarcoma | 2. Lymphoma
33
Amyloidosis occurs when extracellular fibrillar proteins are deposited and cause
Tissue damage and dysfunction
34
Amyloid deposits are composed of
Non branching fibrils
35
Amyloid deposited are unable to be removed by
Phagocytosis
36
Forms of amyloid proteins
1. AL 2. AA 3. A beta 4. TTR
37
AL proteins are associated with
Multiple myeloma
38
AA proteins are deposited in patients with
Chronic inflammatory conditions
39
Beta amyloid deposited in
Alzheimer’s disease
40
Transthyretin (TTR) is a normal protein that accumulates in excessive amounts as a form of
Amyloidosis
41
Older patients are most likely to have TTR accumulate following
Mutations in protein misfolding
42
When TTR accumulates in the walls of the heart, it is called

49
Diagnosis of amyloidosis requires ___ evaluation
