465. Which of the following regarding HIV is FALSE?
A. Heterosexual contact is the predominant mode of transmission of HIV worldwide.
B. All forms of transmission ofHIV are aided by coexisting STDs.
C. Transfusion of seronegative blood still has a small risk ofHIV transmission.
D. Seroconversion rate for HIV in needle-stick injury is 3%.
E. Perinatal transmission to neonate is the most common cause ofHIV infection in children.

466. Which of the following regarding HIV is FALSE?
A. HIV is a dsDNA virus.
B. HIV2 & HIVI have serologic cross-reactivity.
C. Viral envelope glycoproteins, gp 120 & gp41 are critical for HIV infection of cells.

E. HIV is capable of causing immunosuppresion.

467. Which of the following statement regarding my is TRUE?
A. mY has selective tropism for T Helper cells.
B. CD4 molecules on T cells & macrophages act as specific receptors for gpl20 envelope protein on my.
C. In the dividing T cells, my cDNA enter nucleus to integrate into host genome.
D. When HIY infected T cells are activated by antigens or cytokines, extensive viral budding occurs, leading to cell death.
E. All of the above.

468. Which of the following statement regarding my is FALSE?
A. Only 0.01-0.1 % of circulating T cells are productively infected, especially early in the disease process.
B. Productive infection is continually activated in the latently infected cells as antigenic exposure occurs.
C. There is increase in CD4:CDS ratio in the peripheral blood in AIDs.
D. More T cells are infected in lymphoid tissue than in the peripheral blood.
E. There is selective loss of memory subset of T Helper cells early in the disease process, leading to clonal anergy even with common recall antigen.

469. Which of the following statement is TRUE regarding the mechanism ofTHelper cells in my infection?
A. Extensive viral budding in the productively infected T cells lead to cell death
B. Direct infection of thymic progenitor cells or accessory cells that secrete trophic cytokines for CD/ T cell result in reduction in T cell maturation & number.
C. Fusion of infected T cells with uninfected cells results in formation of giant cells that balloon & die within a few hours.
D. Soluble gpl20 molecules can be released to bind uninfected CD/ T cells, resulting in antigen dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC) of both infected & uninfected T cells in the presence of antigp 120 antibodies.
