28
Both HIV and HCV are treated with combination antiviral therapy. What is the main difference?
Feedback
RNA-dependent RNA polymerase
They are exclusively produced by B lymphocytes (by all nucleated cells)
IFN-inducing PRRs detect viral nucleic acids, whereas CLRs recognize carbohydrates present in pathogen glycoproteins
Infection only occurs during simultaneous coinfection with hepatitis B virus (it can happen after)
Only some cells with sialic acid are permissive
P[8] infects mainly secretor individuals, whereas P[6] infects more frequently Lewis-negative individuals
Viral secretion of granzymes to kill NK cells (NK cells secrete granzymes to kill infected cells)
Presentation of exogenous antigens on MHC-I (MHC-I usually present endogenous antigens, and they are on all nucleated cells)
TLR3 (Toll-like receptor)
Adaptive immunity is characteristic of vertebrates
Vectorial intracellular
MHC-I is on all nucleated cells, MHC-II on APCs
PAMP recognition (innate immunity)
Inhibit viral replication
Viruses depend on host cell processes
A mixture of related viral mutants
Absortion, Disruption, Metabolism, Excretion and Toxicity
The ratio between CC50 and IC50, indicating the balance between toxicity and antiviral activity
They inhibit viral replication and rely on the host immune system to clear the infection
Their RNA genome is unstable, making resistance less likely
HIV requires lifelong combination therapy, while HCV can often be cured with DAA treatment
