Q

What is the pathophys of gonorrhea?

A

Female: infected cervix -> uterus + fallopian tubes
Male: urethra rectum (stays there)

Attached to epithelium -> mucosal invasion + damage

Intense inflammation -> urethra/uterus fills with exudate

Q

What is the specification of Chlamydia?

A

Behaves like a virus

Elementary body =resilient inactive bacteria
➡️ entry via attachment and endocytosis ➡️ elementary body ➡️ reticulate body = active replication bacteria

Q

What are the manifestations of genital herpes ?

A
  1. Non-primary HSV (with hsv antibodies) ➡️ less sx and shedding lesions
  2. Primary genital infection (no Ab) ➡️ fever, muscles ache, less diuresis
  3. Recurrent infections (HSV 2 more than 1) ➡️ mild local Sx, shedding lesions
  4. Neonate infection (CNS lesions, seizures, mortality)
17
Q

What are the mkst danferous strands of human papillomavirus ?

A

6, 11, 16, 18

18
Q

What are the HPV (papillomavirus) manif?

A

Condylomara acuminate

  • contagious ++
  • painful Intercourse
  • bleed easy

Giat cauliflower-like condylomata acuminate (cancer?)

19
Q

What is scabies ?

A

Mites burrow to lay eggs
Long skin expo to parasites (intercourse, fomites)

Manif: pruritus

20
Q

What is HIV?

A

RNA retrovirus

21
Q

What cells does HIV target?

A

CD4 helper t-cells & macrophages

22
Q

Wjat is thhe HIV life cycle?

A
  1. Virion bind to CD4 + chemokin receptor
  2. Fusion whit HIV membrane and host membrane
  3. Entry of viral genome in cytoplasm
  4. HIV RNA + reverse transcriptase = proviral DNA
  5. Intregration of provirus (DNA integrase) in host cell genome
  6. Synthesis HIV proteins
  7. Assemble virions
  8. Exocytosis
  9. Release of mature virion (new HIV virion)
23
Q

What are the crucial HIV proteins?

A

gp120: CD4 $ CXCR4 or CCR5 binding
gp41: entry across membrane

Reverse transcriptase: RNA -> DNA conversion
DNA integrase: DNA insertion in host genome

24
Q

How does HIV becomme AIDS?

A

Increase in HIV count

Decrease in CD4 + Th count

25
Q

Ehat are the infection sites of HIV?

A
  1. Lymph nodes
  2. Dendritic cell and mucosal T-cells spread infection
  3. Sometime Thymus and bone marrow involved
  4. Reservoirs (GI, CNS)
26
Q

What are the manifestations of HIV?

A
Kaposi sarcoma
Anorexia
HSV
Cytom egalovirus
Retinitis
Vision deficits
27
Q

What is a window period, in HIV?

A

Virus present, but no antibodies

28
Q

What happens to HIV infected cells?

A

Killed by cytotoxic T-cels

29
Q

What happens to unifected cells?

A

Inderect induction of apoptosis

By gp120 and partial fusion

30
Q

HIV to AIDS progression

A
Seropositive test (antibodies p4)
Clinical latency 

CD4 count less than 200 cells/ul
