Vaccine Design Informed by Virus-Induced Immunity

Amount and Duration of Immunity Induced by Intradermal Inoculation of Cultured Vaccine Virus

Continued cultivation of vaccine virus in a medium consisting of minced chick embryo tissue and Tyrode's solution has resulted in a virus qualitatively changed to such an extent that considerable amounts of it can be injected intradermally into human beings without danger or inconvenience. Individuals who are vaccinated intradermally with the cultured virus should be revaccinated dermally six m...

Studies on the Duration of Immunity conferred by a Live Modified Sheep Pox Tissue Culture Virus Vaccine

Humoral Immune Response Induced by PLGA Micro Particle Coupled Newcastle Disease Virus Vaccine in Chickens

This experiment was conducted for evaluating the humoral immune responses induced by Poly Lactide-co-Glycolide Acid (PLGA) microspheres coupled inactivated Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) vaccine in comparison to an ‘in-house’ prepared inactivated and a live commercial vaccine. PLG microparticles containing inactivated NDV were prepared by a double emulsion technique based on solvent evaporation ...

Zika Virus: Immunity and Vaccine Development

The emergence of Zika virus in the Americas and Caribbean created an urgent need for vaccines to reduce transmission and prevent disease, particularly the devastating neurodevelopmental defects that occur in utero. Rapid advances in Zika immunity and the development of vaccine candidates provide cautious optimism that preventive measures are possible.

Immunity induced by the radiation-attenuated schistosome vaccine.

As a paradigm for the development of a vaccine against human schistosomiasis, the radiation-attenuated (RA) vaccine has enabled the dissection of different immune responses as putative effector mechanisms. This review considers advances made in the past, and updates our knowledge with reference to recent studies that have provided new information relevant particularly to the early innate events...
