|
What are the two genera and what diseases do they cause from the family Papovaviridae?
|
1. papillomavirus - warts
2. polyomavirus - JC and BK associated with Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) |
|
What is the structure of Papovaviridae?
|
non-enveloped
circular dsDNA icosahedral capsid has 4 structural proteins |
|
What about Papovaviridae eventually leads to tumor formation?
|
two phase gene expression
1. early gene expression - genes involved in DNA replication 2. late gene expression - 4 structural genes that form the capsid |
|
What is significant about Papovaviridae serotypes?
|
there are none. since papillomavirus cannot be grown in culture they are just called "types." these types are all very specific for different types of tissue.
|
|
What tissue does HPV infect?
|
status germinatrium - basal cell layer of epidermis that
|
|
How do warts caused by Papillomavirus resolve?
|
usually spontaneously possibly from a good cell mediated immune response
|
|
What is genetically different between benign papillomas and oncogenic HPV?
|
benign - replicate as plasmids
oncogenic - integrate into host cell genome to replicate |
|
What are methods of papilloma transfer?
|
autoinnoculation
microtrauma in hands and feet fomites sexual contact childbirth |
|
Are non-genital warts more common in teen girls or boys?
|
girls
|
|
What is Verruca vulgaris?
|
the most common of all warts caused by HPV-2, HPV-4 and frequently occur in multiples that are usually located on the hands and fingers. will spontaneously resolve, but can be treated.
|
|
What are Verruca plantaris?
|
seen mainly in adolescents and young adults, these are caused by HPV-1 and HPV-4 and are called plantar warts. black dots are bleeding points
|
|
What are Verruca planta?
|
flat warts caused by HPV-3 and HPV-10 that usually appear on the face. they usually cause a trivial cosmetic problem. could probably be mistaken for acne sometime, but never ulcerates.
|
|
What is focal epithelial hyperplasia aka Heck's Disease?
|
HPV-13 caused mucosal oral cavity warts that present of a rough texture in the mouth that spontaneously resolve
|
|
What are single oral papillomas?
|
HPV-11 caused oral wart that usually requires surgical excision. rare to have multiple papillomas, which are caused by an unknown HPV
|
|
What is significant about laryngeal papillomas.
|
HPV-11 and HPV-6 caused warts and usually are recurrent until puberty and then they self resolve. in very serious cases, extensive hypertrophy can lead to breathing problems and can be malignant after radiation treatment
|
|
What are Condyloma acuminata?
|
HPV-11, HPV-1, HPV-2 caused anogenital warts on mainly external mucosal surfaces will present very cauliflower-like in women which can lead to ovarian carcinoma. presents as penile warts in men which is somewhat reduced with circumcision
|
|
What demographic is most susceptible to perianal Condyloma acuminata?
|
gay males
|
|
What is CIN?
|
cervical intraepithelial neoplasia = cervial dysplasia caused by HPV-16 (50%) and 18, 31, 45, 6, 11 present lower risk. this is the precursor of squamous cell carcinoma.
|
|
What is the most common STD?
|
HPV which 99% of the time correlates with cervical cancer
|
|
How is CIN rated?
|
CIN 1 - mild (occurs in "transformation zone" where columnar epithelial cells of endocervix meet the squamous epithelium of the vagina)
CIN 2 - moderate CIN 3 - severe/carinoma |
|
What histological phenomena can you see in a PAP smear for a pt with HPV?
|
halo'd and enlarged nuclei
|
|
What is the chemical treatment that can be used to better visualize carcinoma on the cervix?
|
acetic acid tx
|
|
What are SILs?
|
squamous intraepithelium lesions that are easily detected in PAP smears of CIN-1 conditions. as SILs increase, CIN rating increases.
|
|
*Of the HPV DNA found in most abnormal cells, what types of HPV were present?*
|
50% had HPV-16
4-24% had HPV-18 |
|
How does cervical carcinoma happen on a gene level with HPV?
|
the genes that are made by the HPV plasmid are as follows:
E2 - regulates cell cycle E6, E7 - expressed to encourage proliferation after given permission from E2 in carcinoma causing HPV, the HPV plasmid breaks at E2, integrates into the host genome and then has unregulated proliferation and replication. no E2, no brakes. |
|
What is the tx of paillomavirus?
|
patient prerogative, bcause most of the time it's simply cosmetic. tx does NOT get rid of HPV. no tx exists for HPV removal.
|
|
What type of wart has the best prognosis for successful removal and no recurrence?
|
single
small < 1y/o |
|
What are the chemical tx options for warts?
|
1. topical salicylic acid (compound-w)
2. topical formalin, glutalaldehyde 3. podphyllin (apple mayapple resin) used for genital warts 4. cryotherapy |
|
What is the best treatments of dysplasia caused by HPV?
|
1. cryosurgery
2. laser surger 3. LEEP - loop electrosurgical Excision Procedure (hot loop that cuts out a large surface 4. cone biopsy - cuts out a cone plug 5. hysterectomy |
|
*What is Gardasil?*
|
preventative anti-HPV vaccine that is quadrivalent and composed of HPV-like particles of 16, 18, 6, 11. these are empty capsids with no genome. best for girls from 9-12.
|
|
What is the significance of Polyomavirus?
|
causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). this virus gets into the white matter, specifically the oligodendrocytes and causes demyelination. death w/i 6 mos. no tx.
