Reovirus, Calicivirus and Astrovirus.

Cards (23)

  • REOVIRUS are distinct segments of bicatenated RNA with no pericapsidic sheet and can have a double or triple capsid.
  • REOVIRUS multiply into cellular cytoplasma.
  • Coltivirus, a type of REOVIRUS, mainly causes Colorado tick fever and is associated with viremia and RBC circulations.
  • Orbivirus is a type of REOVIRUS that causes fever and is not associated with other particular consequences.
  • Reovirus consists of 3 serotypes from isolated intestinal/ respiratory systems material.
  • Respiratory enteric orphan virus is a type of Reovirus that is not certain pathogoly.
  • Rotavirus is a type of Reovirus that is resistant to external environment and has no envelope but has capsid.
  • The capsid of Rotavirus consists of 3 proteic subunits and it has 6 structural and 6 non- structural proteins.
  • NSP4 acts like a viral toxin in Rotavirus.
  • Correlation with celiac morbus is possible in Rotavirus.
  • Diagnosis of Reoviridae is done by virus finding.
  • Treatment of Reaviridae is done by correcting dehydration and electrolytic balance.
  • Vaccine for Rotavirus is available in animal attenuated virus or hybrid form.
  • Calicivirus includes the RNA with + polarity and has an isometric capsid.
  • Norwalk or Norovirus is a type of Calicivirus with 4 neotypes: G I- IV.
  • Pathogenesis of Norwalk or Norovirus (calicivirus) includes gastroenteritis with epidemic vomit, nausea, vomit, general discomfort, abdominal pain, and fever.
  • Sapovirus is a type of Norwalk or Norovirus that doesn't grow into cultures, only molecular biology.
  • Astrovirus are RNA with + polarity and include 8 serotypes in HAstV and HAstV- MLB1.
  • Astrovirus grow into enriched with trypsin renal cultures.
  • Pathogenesis of Astrovirus includes ubiquitarian gastroenteritis with diarrhea, general discomfort, abdominal pain, vomit, and fever.
  • Diagnosis of Astrovirus is done by immunoelctromicroscopic test, antigen search, and viral genome search in PCR.
  • Roavirus has oro- fecal transmission.
  • Astrovirus has oro- fecal transmission.
