YF17D-based vaccines - standing on the shoulders of a giant
Eur J Immunol. 2024 Apr 3:e2250133. doi: 10.1002/eji.202250133. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLive-attenuated yellow fever vaccine (YF17D) was developed in the 1930s as the first ever empirically derived human vaccine. Ninety years later, it is still a benchmark for vaccines made today. YF17D triggers a particularly broad and polyfunctional response engaging multiple arms of innate, humoral and cellular immunity. This unique immunogenicity translates into an extraordinary vaccine efficacy and outstanding longevity of protection, possibly by single-dose immunization. More recently, progress in molecular virology and synthet...

Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis, Human Papillomavirus, and microRNA
CONCLUSION: This finding suggests that in cases where individuals receiving HPV vaccination experience psychiatric or neurological symptoms, it should be considered to diagnose anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis, given the exclusion of other possible complications.PMID:38549528 | DOI:10.2174/0109298673264615231124072130 (Source: Current Medicinal Chemistry)

Pneumococcal conjugate vaccination schedules in infants —acquisition, immunogenicity, and pneumococcal conjugate and yellow fever vaccine co-administration study: statistical analysis plan
The effectiveness of immunisation with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) has been demonstrated in many countries. However, the global impact of PCV is limited by its cost, which has prevented its introducti... (Source: Trials)

Yellow fever neutralizing antibody seroprevalence proportion and titers in previously vaccinated adults with chronic kidney disease
Vaccine. 2024 Mar 20:S0264-410X(24)00316-5. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2024.03.029. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStudies on yellow fever vaccine (YF) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are scarce. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate YF neutralizing antibody seroprevalence and titers in previously vaccinated adults with CKD, on dialysis (D-CKD) or not (ND-CKD), compared to healthy persons. The micro Plaque Reduction Neutralization-Horseradish Peroxidase (μPRN-HP) test was used. Antibody titers were expressed as the reciprocal of the highest dilution that neutralized the challenge virus by 50 % (μPRN50). Seropo...
