Immunology of protection from Ebola virus infection.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A December 2014 meeting reviewed Ebola virus immunology relevant to vaccine development, including Ebola prevention, immunity, assay standardization, and regulatory considerations. Vaccinated humans appear to achieve immune responses comparable in magnitude with those associated with protection in nonhuman primates, suggesting that immunological data could be used to demonstrate vaccine efficacy.

CD8-mediated protection against Ebola virus infection is perforin dependent.
CD8 T cells have been shown to play an important role in the clearance and protection against fatal Ebola virus infection. In this study, we examined the mechanisms by which CD8 T cells mediate this protection. Our data demonstrate that all normal mice infected s.c. with a mouse-adapted Ebola virus survived the infection, as did 100% of mice deficient in Fas and 90% of those deficient in IFN-ga...

متن کاملVaccine to confer to nonhuman primates complete protection against multistrain Ebola and Marburg virus infections.
Filoviruses (Ebola and Marburg viruses) are among the deadliest viruses known to mankind, with mortality rates nearing 90%. These pathogens are highly infectious through contact with infected body fluids and can be easily aerosolized. Additionally, there are currently no licensed vaccines available to prevent filovirus outbreaks. Their high mortality rates and infectious capabilities when aeros...
