Vaccination

I. Principles

Principle of vaccination: The primary goal in vaccination is to provide protective immunity by inducing a memory response to an infectious microbe using a non-toxic antigen preparation. It is important to produce immunity of the appropriate kind: antibody and/or cellular immunity. Antibody mediated protection: primarily against extracellular organisms and their products, e.g. Toxins, and disturbing virus attaching and entering sensitive target cells. Cell mediated protection: preventing host from the intracellular microbes ( certain bacteria and viruses) infection and fungi infection..

Vaccination

ii. Immunization

Passive immunization: using performed antibodies Active immunization: using antigen preparations Systemic (injection) immunization

Vaccination 

iii. Vaccine

Antigen preparations: Most vaccines consist of either attenuated organisms, killed organisms, inactivated exotoxins, or subcellular fragments, and more recently genes for antigens in viral vectors, and DNA itself.

 

Adjuvants DNA vaccine



Recombinant vaccine



Cytokines

Vaccination iv. Vaccines to pathogens and tumors 

Bacterial vaccines: BCG (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) DPT (Diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus ) Dysentery vaccine, Typhoid, Cholera T-independent vaccines to carbohydrates such as capsule of Pneumococcus Meningococcusor haemmophilus.



Viral vaccines : Polio, Measles, Rubella, Yellow



fever,Mumps, Rabies, influenza, HBV vaccine (HBsAg), Vaccines to other infectious agents: Malaria and other parasites



Tumor vaccines : Prostate cancer &

Immuno-therapy 1. Antibodies: TAT (tetanus antitoxin) 2. Cytokines and their receptors 1) Cytokines : IL-2 , IFNα , IL3 , Erythropoietin ( EPO ), GSF ,
