Regarding HIV infection all of the following are true except
Respuesta
-
It is retrovirus that infects CD4 T cells, dendritic cells and macrophages and binds to gp120
-
gp 120 changes conformation and binds co-receptors CCR5 and CXCR4
-
Reverse transcriptase copies viral ssRNA genomes into ds cDNA
-
Replication of HIV occurs in activated T and B cells
-
A genetic deficiency of the co-receptor CCR5 confers resistance to HIV infection in vivo
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
All of the following are seen in a typical course of HIV infection except
Respuesta
-
Infected CD4 cells die as a result of viral replication
-
There is a latent viral reservoir in the lymphoid tissue
-
gp 120 expressed on infected cell binds CD4 on uninfected cell and they fuse forming multinucleated giant cells in HIV infected brain
-
Opportunistic infections will begin to arise when CD4 T cell count goes below 400 cell/cubic mm
Pregunta 3
Pregunta
You need 2 positive ELISA and a confirmatory positive Western Blot to confirm HIV positive status
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
All of the following are true about HIV drugs except?
Respuesta
-
Block CCR5 - will block fusion
-
Block Reverse Transcriptase - Blocks integration
-
Block maturation (gp 160 -> gp41)
-
HAART (Highly Active Anti-retroviral Therapy) = 1 NRTIs + a PI/NNRTI/II
