Overview
Vaccine protection depends on a specific adaptive immune memory. However, a little-explored aspect of certain live vaccines may provide beneficial, non-specific protection against infections or pathogens other than the one from which the vaccine is derived. This is the concept of innate immune memory or " trained immunity", which differs from adaptive memory in its non-specificity. Innate immune memory is triggered by exposure to immunostimulants, and offers protection against unrelated pathogenic threats for several months or even years. The project aims to carry out an exploratory study to observe, in the context of current practice, the immune response obtained after a subunit and a live attenuated vaccine
Detailed description
Vaccine protection depends on a specific adaptive immune memory. However, a little-explored aspect of certain live vaccines may provide beneficial, non-specific protection against infections or pathogens other than the one from which the vaccine is derived. This is the concept of innate immune memory or " trained immunity", which differs from adaptive memory in its non-specificity. Innate immune memory is triggered by exposure to immunostimulants, and offers protection against unrelated pathogenic threats for several months or even years.
For example, research has shown that the live attenuated BCG vaccine induce non-specific trained immunity, enabling innate immune cells to remember their first encounter and improve their immune status during a second confrontation with similar or different agents.
Other currently available live vaccines, such as BCG , could also "train" innate immune cells.
The project aims to carry out an exploratory study to observe, in the context of current practice, the immune response obtained after a subunit and a live attenuated vaccine
