One vaccine for life: Lessons from immune ontogeny
نویسندگان
چکیده
There remains a general misconception that the immune status of fetus and neonate is immature or insufficient. However, emerging research in ontogeny prompts reconsideration this orthodoxy, reframing period instead as one unique opportunity. Vaccine responses (qualitative quantitative) vary between individuals, across demographic cohorts. Elements baseline function predict vaccine response – some these factors are well described, others remain subject ongoing research, especially with rapidly expanding field ‘omics’ enabled by development highly granular profiling techniques increasing computational capacity. Age strongest predictive associated variability to vaccination; predictable variation vaccination key identify crucial underlying mechanisms. Specifically, circulating maternal antibody young infant can modulate vaccination, acting an ‘undercover adjuvant’ that, counter current dogma, may offer pathway longer lasting, higher quality vaccination. Exciting avenues for novel area have potential dramatically alter how we protect world's most vulnerable population very young.

Cancer vaccines have been exclusively studied all through the past decades, and have made exceptional achievements in cancer treatment. Few cancer vaccines have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), for instance, Provenge, which was approved for the treatment of prostate carcinoma in 2012. Moreover, more recently, T-VEC got approval for the treatment of melanoma. While, th...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Ontogeny of the Immune System to Promote Immune-Mediated Health for Life
Understanding the ontogeny of the human immune system is a prerequisite to developing efficient and safe interventions aimed at providing long-term protection against infectious pathogens or inflammatory disorders originating early in life. The immune system of the fetus and the newborn infant had long been considered as “immature.” This insight is based on the observation that infectious disea...
متن کاملLessons on Life from SENP2
Embryonic development is a wonderful thing to behold. Consider the creation of a human embryo: a single fertilized egg cell gives rise to an adult organism consisting of approximately 6 × 1013 cells, organized into myriad tissues. This amazing feat is achieved through a carefully choreographed developmental program, where the cells of the growing embryo make a series of cell fate decisions that...
متن کاملLessons learned from human HIV vaccine trials
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The ability to induce broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) responses is likely essential for development of a globally effective HIV vaccine. Unfortunately, human vaccine trials conducted to date have failed to elicit broad plasma neutralization of primary virus isolates. Despite this limitation, in-depth analysis of the vaccine-induced memory B-cell repertoire can provide val...
متن کاملVaccine preparedness: lessons from Lyantonde, Uganda.
To explore how to better educate rural Africans about preventive HIV/AIDS vaccine trials, 15 semi-structured, open-ended interviews were conducted with villagers in Lyantonde, Rakai District, Uganda. This study reports on the findings by focusing on the attitudes, knowledge and questions the rural villagers had about HIV/AIDS-preventive vaccine testing. While several interviewees confused preve...
