Vaccines are the most cost-effective tools for preventing death and disability from infectious disease

The value of VaccinesThe value of Vaccines

Basic concept of vaccines6

Deliver to the body some part or all of the disease organism that IMITATES the pathogen but is not pathogenic. Induce protective immune response.

Cross-flow filtration

The majority of the feed flow travels tangentially across the surface of the filter, rather than into the filter. The principal advantage of this is that the filter cake (which can blind the filter) is substantially washed away during the filtration process, increasing the length of time that a filter unit can be operational.

It can be a continuous process.

Fill and Finish

A conjugate vaccine is created by covalently attaching a poor (polysaccharide organism) antigen to a carrier protein (preferably from the same microorganism).

Immune stimulating complexes (ISCOMs) are spherical open cage-like structures that are spontaneously formed when mixing together cholesterol, phospholipids and Quillaia saponins under a specific conditions.

the ISCOM-Matrix is simply mixed with the antigen post-manufacturing, the antigen can also be incorporated into the structure.

Adjuvant: The word “adjuvant” comes from the Latin word adiuvare, meaning to help or aid. "An immunologic adjuvant is defined as any substance that acts to accelerate, prolong, or enhance antigen-specific immune responses when used in combination with specific vaccine antigens."

Virosome: A virosome is a drug or vaccine delivery mechanism consisting of unilamellar phospholipid membrane (either a mono- or bi-layer) vesicle incorporating virus derived proteins to allow the virosomes to fuse with target cells. Virosomes are not able to replicate but are pure fusion-active vesicles.

A cryoprotectant is a substance used to protect biological tissue from freezing damage (antifreezers).

Conventional cryoprotectants are glycols, such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol.

Inactivated Toxins

Exotoxin Gram negative and

gram positive bacteria.

Heat Labile. Protein. Secreted by the

bacteria.

Endotoxin Gram negative

bacteria. Heat stable. Lipopolysaccharide. Firmly bound to the

bacteria outer membrane.

17

Toxoid

- Not a vaccine against the organism.- Inactivation of toxin by chemical

(formalin) or heat treatment.Vaccine against pathogenic exotoxinTetanus, diphtheria, (pertussis?), anthrax?

Purify toxin then chemically inactivate (toxoid) Risk of incomplete inactivation. TT (Tetanus toxoid), DT.

Genetically modify toxin so non-toxic CRM (diphtheria), mLT (cholera, ETEC)

virus

Live vaccines

Live vaccines are made from live infectious agents without any amendment.

The only live vaccine is “Variola” small pox vaccine, made of live vaccinia cow-pox virus (not variola virus) which is not pathogenic but antigenic, giving cross immunity for variola.

Subunit

Purify a protein or proteins from pathogen

Selective presentation of 'protective' antigens Pertussis

Pertussis toxin + filamentous haemagglutinin + pertactin (no LPS)

Influenza (subunit) Mainly haemaglutinin + neuraminidase

Disadvantages Requires growing the pathogen and purifying

protective (antigens) subunits.

Bordetella pertussisBordetella pertussis

Filamentous haemagglutinin

Pertactin

Pertussis toxin a 69 kD outer membrane protein (OMP).

Different forms of Polysaccharide

LPS Capsular polysaccharide

Polysaccharide

Many bacteria produce a strain-specific capsular polysaccharide on their surface.

Antibody to these antigens are protective. Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus Type

B, Typhoid (Vi). Can be easily purified.Immunogenic in older children / adults.But poorly immunogenic in infantsT-cell independent responses

Short lived Low antibody responses

Vector Vaccine

A vector vaccine is a vaccine which is introduced by a vector e.g. vaccinia virus.

The vaccinia virus as a live vaccine led to the globally eradication of the smallpox virus.

The genome of the vaccinia virus has been completely sequenced.

The vaccinia virus is generally nonpathogenic.

INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

DNA vaccine is DNA sequence used as a vaccine.

This DNA Sequence code for antigenic protein of pathogen.

As this DNA inserted into cells it is translated to form antigenic protein. As this protein is foreign to cells , so immune response raised against this protein.

In this way ,DNA vaccine provide immunity against that pathogen.

Recombinant Vaccine

The gene coding for HBsAg was discovered in 1970.

The gene has been inserted into a yeast cell.

As the yeast cell grows it produces large amounts of HBsAg.

The HBsAg is extracted and purified then incorporated into the vaccine.

Recombinant DNA modified organismsLive Vectors

Cloning of genetic material from one organism into another.

The non virulent parent organism expresses the antigens of the cloned genetic material.

A vaccine would produce a response against the introduced antigen as well as the original organism.

Recombinant DNA modified organisms

DNA vaccines Vs Traditional DNA vaccines Vs Traditional vaccinesvaccines

Uses only the DNA from infectious organisms.

Avoid the risk of using actual infectious organism.

Provide both Humoral & Cell mediated immunity

Refrigeration is not required

Uses weakened or killed form of infectious organism.

Create possible risk of the vaccine being fatal.

Provide primarily Humoral immunity

Usually requires Refrigeration.

FUTURE PROSPECTSFUTURE PROSPECTS

Plasmid with multiple genes provide immunity against many diseases in one booster.

DNA vaccines against infectious diseases such as AIDS, Rabies, Malaria can be available.

Why no HCV vaccine

HCV has different genotypes: Since hepatitis C has at least six genotypes, several different vaccines would be needed to protect against each genotype.

HCV mutates very easily: This means that some of its genetic code can change a little bit when it replicates itself. The result is a virus that keeps its genotype, but is different enough to confuse a vaccine.

There is no effective small animal model or cell culture system:This makes vaccine development very challenging because researchers can't see how the virus really works in a natural environment. Really, scientists don't truly understand the whole life-cycle of the hepatitis C virus because infecting liver cells (called hepatocytes) is very difficult.
