Pg. 78 HIV/AIDS Video Notes HIV Homework: Summary of HIV’s Affect on Immune System
Respond Why might a person with a compromised immune system be unable to fight off a disease?
Why might a person with a compromised immune system be unable to fight off a disease? Their immune system is not fighting off the pathogens. If the body cannot fight off pathogens they will get sick.
KEY CONCEPTWhen the immune system is weakened, the body cannot fight off disease.
Opportunistic infections: • Infections where if the immune system were healthy, it would be able to fight these infections • occur because white blood cells cannot fight infections Diseases that weaken the immune system lead to:
Pg. 78 • Create a small bubble map including everything you ALREADY know about HIV. HIV
The human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) • is a retrovirus (has RNA instead of DNA as its genetic material) • HIV reproduces in, and destroys T cells • The body cannot replace T cells fast enough and T cells cannot help in immune responses • Therefore, immune system becomes weakened • is transmitted by mixing infected blood with a bodily fluid
The Medical Mechanics of HIV 2m7s • Make sure to take NOTES!!! • You will be writing a summary of how HIV affects the immune system for homework.
Ways to get HIV • Sexual intercourse (semen/vaginal fluid) • Mother to child (umbilical cord and/or breast milk) • Blood to blood contact (sharing needles/blood transfusion)
deadT cell T cell activatedB cell antibody HIV HIV and Immune Response 3m51s • Why can’t our bodies fight off infections such as HIV or Hepatitis C?
Homework • Using your class notes and video notes, please write a summary of how HIV affects the immune system. • At least 5 sentences • Include an illustration Take 5 minutes to finish your homework (if not done)
Origin of HIV? (THEORY) • The hunter may have been bitten or cut creating cross species contamination • May have mutated from SIV to HIV once inside the human body
HIV infection leads to AIDS. Percent of people in Africa with HIV 1999-2001
AIDS is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. • Immune system is worn out • very low amount of T cells • Medicine slows, but does not cure • ALWAYS results in death • Several opportunistic infections are usually the cause of death: • Pneumonia • Viral infections • Cancers • tuberculosis
Exploring the link between the Black Death and HIV immunity The Mystery of the Black Death begins in September of 1665, when a tailor in the secluded English village of Eyam opened a flea-infested shipment of fabric from London. In a matter of days, the tailor and much of the village were suffering the telltale signs of bubonic plague, the disease that, in the first five years since its arrival, had wiped out a third of the European population. To prevent the outbreak from spreading throughout the region, the whole town was quarantined -- no one was allowed in or out. Outsiders assumed that the bacteria would simply wipe out the entire village. But they were wrong. Three hundred and fifty years later, Dr. Stephen O'Brien, a geneticist from the National Institutes of Health in Washington, D.C., is delving into the reasons why some individuals managed to survive the excruciating Black Death while others were dying all around them. Following O'Brien as he takes DNA samples and investigates historical records and family archives, the film sheds light on the resistance to the plague, and reveals a stunning legacy that the plague survivors passed on to their descendents -- a similar resistance to the modern-day scourge of AIDS. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRrolqaU7fA&safe=active

31.6 Diseases that Weaken the Immune System 2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules Set up Cornell Notes on pg. 81 • Topic: 31.6 Diseases that Weaken the Immune System • Essential Question(s): 1. How does leukemia affect a person’s entire body?
Bone marrow is a tissue found within bones. • Red bone marrow makes RBC/WBC • New blood cells replace mature ones that die But, sometimes, blood cells do not mature properly
Leukemia is cancer of the bone marrow. • Unlike other cancers, leukemia does not form tumors, instead is prevents the bone marrow from functioning properly
How does Leukemia weaken the immune system? • Bone marrow produces immature WBC • In an effort to replace defective WBCs, the bone marrow overproduces WBCs (all of which do not work) • Bone marrow spends all its time making WBCs and makes fewer RBCs that are needed to replace those that are dead or dying
Leukemia Informational Video 6m30s • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJOYAaygQFE • Please add to your notes on leukemia using the many facts that are provided in the video. • You will later use this information to write a summary of the effects that leukemia has on the body.
Only cure- the cancerous bone marrow must be replaced with healthy bone marrow. This is known as a bone marrow transplant • Patients are treated with large doses of chemotherapy and radiation in order to kill all of the abnormal bone marrow cells • If the transplant is successful, the donor marrow will make healthy blood cells!
Bone Marrow Biopsy 3m22s • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svTQ-zJHY9M • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuirlplSfBU Bone Marrow Transplant 2m55s
Problems with bone marrow transplants… • The donor marrow can make antibodies against the host’s healthy tissues • Chemotherapy and radiation kill both the cancerous cells AND the healthy cells leaving the immune system weak • Immune system is then open to catching opportunistic infections
Why Charlie Brown? Why? (Parts 1-3) Approx 24 mins • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSkAzKZaUnM • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qaiM0TKgeQ • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGoLJvmUTdM • A 1990 Peanuts episode introducing children to Leukemia. • The idea for Why, Charlie Brown, Why? was conceived by Sylvia Cook, a registered nurse at the Stanford Children's Hospital. In December 1985, Cook sent a letter to Charles M. Schulz, asking him to produce a short animated film about cancer for young patients featuring the Peanuts characters. • Cancer was a subject with which Schulz was familiar; his mother Dena had died of cancer when he was in his twenties, and Schulz himself would succumb to colon cancer in 2000. The special has been shown in hospitals and in public education systems, primarily elementary schools and junior high schools, as a method for explaining the subject to children
