M2. Immunization Flashcards
Provides immediate but temporary protection against
infection
Passive immunity
Protection provided by a person’s own immune system. The antigen stimulates the immune system to produce
antibody-mediated and cell-mediated immunity
Active immmunity
He used cowpox as vaccine
Edward jenner
The vaccine is injected into the muscle, and ___ take up the protein antigen
dendritic cells
Dendritic cells are
activated through ____
pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)
In combination with signaling (by soluble antigen) through the B cell receptor (BCR), the T cells drive B cell development in the ____
lymph node.
can proliferate rapidly when they encounter a pathogen, and CD8+ effector T cells are important for the elimination of the infected cells.
CD8+ memory T cells
can continue to produce
antibodies for decades travel to reside in bone marrow niches.
Long lived plasma cells
Derived from “wild” viruses or bacteria that are
attenuated (weakened) in a laboratory, usually by
repeated culturing
Live attenuated vaccines
Produced by growing viruses or bacteria in culture
media then subjected to heat or chemical agents. May not elicit the range of immunologic response
provided by live attenuated vaccines
INACTIVATED VACCINES
Contain bacteria or viruses killed through a physical or
chemical process
Whole cell inactivated vaccines
Made using inactivated toxins produced by bacteria
→ Tetanus, Diphtheria
Toxoid vaccine
Produced through recombinant DNA technology (enables combination of DNA from two or more sources)
→ HPV
Recombinant vaccines
True or false General Rule: Almost all vaccines can be administered
at the same visit
True
True or False: Vaccine doses should not be administered at less than
the recommended minimum intervals or earlier than
the indicated maximum age
False; should be minimum age
How much inactivated injectable vaccines can be
given in the same visit.
