5Immunization
Passive immunization preformed antibodies
transferred to recipient
Maternal IgG and IgA
Intravenous immune globulin (IVIG)
Immunoglobulin (mostly IgG) from pooled plasma of
blood donors
Animal anti-serum against toxins (Type III
hypersensitivity, serum sickness)
Transient protection
6Active Immunization induction of immunity and
memory
Natural infection
Vaccine
Pathogen
Neutralizing antibody against
toxin
Especially important for Pathogen producing
toxin Pathogen with short incubation period
(influenza) Infection of irreplaceable tissues
(neurons by poliovirus)
CTL against infected cells (intracellular
infection)
Memory
7Live-attenuated pathogens as vaccine
Grow the pathogen in non-human cells.
Polio vaccine (Sabin) poliovirus grown in monkey
cells
Measles vaccine rubella virus grown in duck
embryo cells
TB vaccine (BCG) Mycobacterium bovis grown in
media with bile.
Attenuated pathogen induce immunity without
causing disease.
May regain virulence through mutation.
May cause disease in immunodeficient patients.
8Recombinant-vector vaccines
Attenuated Bacteria or virus
Gene encoding pathogen antigen
Attenuated Salmonella as carrier for genes
encoding tetanous toxin, Listeria
monocytogenes Bacillus anthracis, Leishmania
major, etc.
Recombinant adenovirus vectors, poxviruses,
alphaviruses
9Inactivated pathogens and components as vaccines
Inactivated pathogen (by chemicals)
Salk polio vaccine polio virus inactivated by
formaldehyde
Bacterial polysaccharide capsules
Chemically inactivated toxins (toxoids)
Recombinant pathogen antigens
10Influenza vaccine
HA binds to sialic acid- containing
carbohydrates on host cell
Acidification of endosome induces
conformational change in HA trimer
Type A, B, C based on NP and M1
Type A most common
Fusion of viral envelope and the endosomal
membrane
Subtype based on HA and NA HA H1-H16 NA N1-N9
e.g. H1N1, H5N1
11Variability of influenza virus
HA
Minor mutations within the subtype
Avian influenza
Reassortment of genomic RNA
HA recognizes N-acetyl sialic acid-galactose
Human cells ?2,6 linkage
Duck cells ?2,3 linkage
Pig cells both ?2,6 and ?2,3 linkage
May serve as mixing vessel for Human and avian
viruses
Generation of new subtype (different HA, NA)
12Current circulating influenza viruses
Direct transmission of avian virus to human
Lower respiratory tract contains a2,3 sialic
acid-galactose
1997 H5N1 infection in Hong Kong
2003-2004 H5N1 infection in Southeast Asia
No human to human transmission
2003 H9N2 infection in Hong Kong
2003 H7N7 infection in Netherlands, human
transmission
13HA and pathogenicity
14Current vaccine
Trivalent inactivated influenza vaccines (TIVs)
A strain (H1N1, H3N2), B strain
Chicken eggs
Chemical inactivation
New vaccine by reverse genetics
Viral replication proteins
PR8 grows well in eggs.
HA and NA of the pandemic strain
Required for efficient propagation in eggs
Basic residues deleted to reduce pathogenicity.
Simian kidney cells
Outer coat of the pandemic strain
Lack of pathogenicity (HA deletion)
Good growth in eggs

25Mucosal vaccine
Mucosal surface is the major site of pathogen
entry.
Mucosal vaccine induces both mucosal and systemic
immunity. Injected vaccines are poor inducers of
mucosal immunity.
