How do viruses affect ribosomes?

Ribosomes primarily synthesize proteins and don't have inherent repair functions. Cellular repair mechanisms handle damage.

All cells, including viruses, have ribosomes for protein synthesis. Viruses hijack host cell ribosomes to replicate their genetic material.

Ribosomal dysfunction can lead to impaired protein synthesis, affecting cell function and potentially causing various health problems.

COVID-19 can lead to the production of autoantibodies, including anti-RNP antibodies, in some individuals, but it's not a common occurrence.

Ribosomal proteins are synthesized in the cell's nucleolus and then assembled into ribosomes in the cytoplasm.

Anti-P1 antibodies can be cold or warm antibodies, meaning they may react at temperatures below or above normal body temperature.

Little C is a historical term for the Rh blood group system, with C+ indicating the presence of the C antigen and C- indicating its absence.

Antibody deficiency diseases are immune disorders where the body can't produce sufficient antibodies to fight infections, leading to increased susceptibility.

Lupus erythematosus is a chronic autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks various body tissues, leading to inflammation and damage.

Lupus psychosis symptoms can include mood changes, confusion, hallucinations, and other neuropsychiatric symptoms in individuals with SLE.

Lupus nephritis is caused by the immune system mistakenly attacking the kidneys in individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

A positive Sjögren's antibody test suggests the presence of autoantibodies often associated with Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disorder.

Neuropsychiatric lupus (NPSLE) refers to SLE that affects the nervous system, leading to neurological and psychiatric symptoms.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) can involve various autoantibodies, but there isn't a specific autoantibody strongly linked to PSC.

Anti-RO 52 antibodies can be associated with autoimmune diseases like Sjögren's syndrome and SLE, but the exact cause is complex.

Anti-ribosomal P (anti-rib P) antibodies are autoantibodies targeting ribosomal P proteins, associated with SLE and NPSLE.

The ribosomal P site (peptidyl site) is where the growing polypeptide chain is held during protein synthesis.

Anti-P1 antibodies in pregnancy can lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn if the mother and baby have incompatible blood types.

The P blood group system antibodies can target the P1 antigen and are relevant in blood transfusion compatibility.

An antibody positive in blood indicates the presence of specific antibodies, which can be a sign of an immune response or autoimmune condition.

Ribosomal diseases are a group of genetic disorders affecting ribosome function, leading to various health problems.

Ribosomes don't cause diseases but can be targeted by autoantibodies in autoimmune conditions like SLE.

A positive result indicates the presence of anti-ribosomal P antibodies, linked to autoimmune diseases like SLE.

Anti-P antibodies target ribosomal P proteins, part of ribosomes involved in protein synthesis.

Anti-ribosomal P antibodies are associated with lupus erythematosus, particularly neuropsychiatric lupus (NPSLE), a form of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
