Which steps in the viral replication cycle are the most
crucial in infection and which are most crucial to stopping viral
infection? Please give reasons why with an example.
Ms.cw remains antibody positive for HIV. Why don’t the antibodies
reduce the viral load?
How does the lab assist the medical team in managing ms cw’s
case of hiv and aids?
A)
Vaccines almost always induce antibody. Discuss 3 protective
function of antibodies against a viral infection( ow do antibodies
protect us from foreign pathogens
B) List and explain 4 strategies used by viruses to evade the
host immune response. Indicate if it is eveding the innate or
adaptive immune or both
An antiviral drug specifically modifies viral receptors on a
eukaryotic host cell. How might this affect the viral reproductive
cycle? A. It would facilitate the process of viral
endocytosis
B. It would result in the degeneration of the viral
capsid
C.
It would enhance the process of viral
apoptosis
D. It would prevent the virus from attaching to the host
cell
6. Oncoviruses are a type of animal virus that can cause a
neoplasm- an abnormal, often excessive, growth...
The patient reports signs and symptoms of a viral infection with
increasing severity. List and describe your next three (3) actions.
Provide rationale for each action.
Describe the pathophysiology of acute inflammation induced by a
viral infection. Suppose that the natural mechanism of acute
inflammation was not successful in healing the tissue area damaged
by the virus and necrotic patches developed in the lungs. Explain
how inflammation could progress to necrosis.
Given the viral life cycle pictured, identify 3 stages of the
cycle which you might target with a therapeutic molecule in order
to both (i) prevent or inhibit spread of the virus, and (ii) avoid
affecting human cells. Explain your choice in detail in all
cases.
