Q

RNA virus that is enveloped

A

Rabies virus

19
Q

Rabies virus causes ?

20
Q

Rabies virus transmission

A

Saliva from bite of infected animal

21
Q

Rabies virus most common reservoirs ?

A

Raccoons, skunks, bats

22
Q

Rabies pathogenesis

A

-Rabies virus injected into body —> enter
muscle cells and replicate
-Rabies virus enters motor neuron and
travels to CNS —>brain
-Rabies virus can travel to salivary glands
and other organs

23
Q

Rabies signs/symptoms

A

Tingling around bit, muscle spasms, weakness, fever

24
Q

What are the two forms of clinical rabies

A

Furious rabies

Paralytic rabies

25
Genital Warts signs/symptoms
Bumps of genitals
26
Genital warts DX
Clinical assessment | Nucleic acid identification
27
Genital warts Tx
Gels for warts (not antivirals)
28
Human papilloma virus Pathogen
Infects epithelial cells
29
HOV-6 and HPV-11
DNA remains extra chromosomal | Infected cells increase keratin production
30
HPV-16 and HPV-18
DNA integrates into host cell’s chromosome | HPV-16 and -18 DNA encode proteins that suppress host cell tumor suppressor proteins
31
Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
Over 200 types DNA viruses Non-enveloped
32
HPV cause genital warts | Most common?
HPV-6 & HPV-11
33
HPV Can cause cancer | Most common ?
HPV-16 & HPV-18
34
HPV transmission
Sexual contact
35
Some virus contains oncogenes that means ?
Oncogenic viruses
36
Oncogenic virus :
Human papilloma virus
37
Cancer is caused by
Mutagens Viruses Inherited
38
Oncogene
gene with ability to convert normal cell to | cancer cell
39
Cancer
Abnormal cells divide uncontrollably
40
Rabies Dx
Nucleic acid identification | Negri bodies in cytoplasm of nerve cells
41
Rabies Tx
start ASAP after bite from infected animal) - Rabies vaccine + immune globulin injections - Once clinical rabies signs/symptoms appear, treatment is usually ineffective
42
Paralytic rabies signs/symptoms
Muscle paralysis Viral encephalitis Coma
43
Furious Rabies signs/symptoms
Hydrophobia Excessive salivation Aggression Viral encephalitis
