Cards (27)

  • Rhinovirus is part of the Picornavirus family.
  • Rhinovirus is lability in pH acid.
  • Rhinovirus doesn't grow at superior of 33°.
  • Rhinovirus grows in diploid human cells.
  • Rhinovirus causes a cytopathic effect.
  • Infection with Rhinovirus leads to hyperactivation of CCK and cascade signaling that causes the inflammatory response to virus.
  • Rhinovirus is the agent of the common cold.
  • Rhinovirus infects the mucosae of the first respiratory paths (nose) and other organs.
  • Rhinovirus can colonize the human intestine.
  • Diagnosis of Rhinovirus infection is exclusively clinic.
  • Coronavirus is in the Nidovirus family.
  • Coronavirus is an RNA with positive polarity.
  • Coronavirus penetrates the nucleocapsid and fuses the envelope with the plasmatic membrane.
  • Coronavirus is translated by the protein-synthesis apparatus of the cell.
  • Coronavirus transcribes the whole viral genome into antigenome used for the formation of viral progeny and complete transcription of RNA copies.
  • HCoV- 229E and HCoV- OC43 are different only for antigenic characters.
  • HCoV- OC43 shows hemoagglutination.
  • Coronavirus is transmitted through inhalation.
  • Colds are affections of respiratory airways.
  • Coronavirus replicates in the mucosae of the respiratory apparatus.
  • Reinfection with Coronavirus is possible, providing scarce protection.
  • Diagnosis of Coronavirus infection includes antigen specific search and nucleotidic sequence in exudate.
  • SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) is also called acute respiratory syndrome.
  • SARS is characterized by atypical pulmonitis, a severe clinical picture, and interhuman infection.
  • SARS- CoV, the virus that gives origin to SARS, multiplies quickly in culture.
  • Diagnosis of SARS includes virus search in expectorate and mucus, culture isolation, specific genomic sequences, and search of specific antigens through immunofluorescence or immunoenzymatic techniques.
  • MERS (middle east respiratory syndrome) is a serious respiratory disease characterized by fever, cough, respiratory problems, and high mortality.
