متن کاملPertussis-specific cell-mediated immunity in infants after vaccination with a tricomponent acellular pertussis vaccine.
The aim of this study was to investigate pertussis-specific cell-mediated immunity in infants vaccinated with a tricomponent acellular vaccine. Infants were investigated during a primary vaccination schedule from the third month of life to the sixth month as well as before and after a booster at 15 to 24 months. This is the first report of specific cell-mediated immune responses to pertussis-re...
متن کاملImmunoproteomic Analysis of Human Serological Antibody Responses to Vaccination with Whole-Cell Pertussis Vaccine (WCV)
BACKGROUND Pertussis (whooping cough) caused by Bordetella pertussis (B.p), continues to be a serious public health threat. Vaccination is the most economical and effective strategy for preventing and controlling pertussis. However, few systematic investigations of actual human immune responses to pertussis vaccines have been performed. Therefore, we utilized a combination of two-dimensional el...

متن کاملComparative Assessment of the Whole-cell Pertussis Vaccine Potency Using Serological and Intracerebral Mouse Protection Methods
One of the most important QC tests of whole-cell pertussis vaccine (WCPV) is potency test. In this regard, mouse protection test (MPT) is the current potency method, which is associated with severe animal distress and large variability in results. The purpose of this study was to assess Pertussis Serological Potency Test (PSPT) as a serological alternative method to intracerebral challenge in M...
