What family does Hepatitis A (HAV)?   Piconaviridae  
🗑
What family does Hepatitis B (HBV)?   Hepadnaviridae  
🗑
What family does Hepatitis C (HCV)?   Flaviviridae  
🗑
What family does Hepatitis D (HDV)?   Deltavirus  
🗑
What are the common symptoms of hepatitis?   Fever, GI symptoms, Nausea and Vomiting  
🗑
Hep A's Mode of transmission?   Fecal-oral, in crowded populations with poor sanitation Rarely through needles, it's viremia is very short  
🗑
Is Hep A oncogenic, which types are?   No, type B and C are oncogenic  
🗑
Name of the vaccine for Hep A?   Formalin inactivated HAV vaccine  
🗑
What type of DNA is in Hep B and why is it incomplete?   ssDNA positive strand and circular incomplete until it infects a new cell  
🗑
What are the conditions of Hep B?   Cirrhosis and carcinoma of the liver  
🗑
Hep B's Mode of transmission?   Parenteral - Needles, Transplants, tattoo's and even sexually and orally, also mother-son  
🗑
What are the 3 morphologic forms of Hep B, known as the dane particles?   Spherical, Pleomorphic spherical and filamentous  
🗑
What is the outer surface antigen of Hep B?   HBsAg  
🗑
Why is HBsAg important for Hep D?   Because it provides HbsAg envelope for it  
🗑
What is Fulminant Hepatitis?   Combination of Hep B and D (Co-infection)  
🗑
What genes are contained in Hep B?   Transactivator protein X Polymerase P - (RNase H and reverse transcriptase S gene - encodes HBsAg C gene - encodes HBcAg and HBeAg  
🗑
What is cccDNA in Hep B?   covalently closed DNA, it happens after the incomplete DNA closes  
🗑
Types of Vaccine for Hep B?   Recombinant HBsAg vaccine Hepatitis B immune globulin (Passive) HBsAG at different site soon after exposure (Active)  
🗑
Medication for Hep B?   Interferon alfa Antivirals (entecabir, adefovir, lamivudine, ribavirin  
🗑
What is the difference in Hep B infection between effective and limited T cell immunity?   Effective: acute hep Limited: chronic disease (Cirrhosis or carcinoma)  
🗑
Which hepatitis does not have an arthropod vector?   Hep C  
🗑

🗑
What is the treatment for Hep C?   Similar to Hep B, Interferon Alfa and ribavirin  
🗑
What are the types of vaccine for hep C?   None  
🗑
Why can't Hep D exist by itself?   Because it needs the envelope of HBsAg, the only gene on the molecule codes for HD-AG  
🗑
What kind of RNA is in HDV?   ssRNA  
🗑
What kind of RNA is in HAV?   ssRNA  
🗑
What kind of RNA is in HBV?   dsDNA  
🗑
What kind of RNA is in HCV?   ssRNA  
🗑
What are the vaccines for HDV?   There is no specific vaccine, it needs HBV to coexist so by targeting HBV the infection can be stopped.  
🗑
