Objective To evaluate the adverse events following immunization (AEFI) of meningococcal vaccines, so as to provide references for the appraisal and treatment of AEFI. Methods The Chinese Bio-medicine Database (1978 to April, 2010), China Journal Full-text Database (1994 to April, 2010), VIP Database (1989 to April, 2010) and WangFang database (1988 to April, 2010) were fully searched, and the references listed in original studies were searched manually as well. Then two reviewers independently screened studies and abstracted relevant data.Results A total of 52 articles involving 61 cases were included. Among the AEFI cases, 72.13% were hypersensitive response, including henoch-schonlein purpura (accompanied with or without nephritis), anaphylactic shock, allergic eruption, angioedema, local allergic reaction and so on. Conclusion The results of this study show that meningococcal vaccines may result in AEFI. However, most AEFI are temporary and can be cured after treatment in time. In general, meningococcal vaccine is safe, but monitoring and treatment for AEFI are necessary.
;ObjectiveUsing human tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNFα) genetransduced human liver cancer cell BEL7404 as tumor vaccine, to study the effect of immune rejection to mice liver cancer implanted tumors. MethodsMice were divided into five groups, and were inoculated with TNFα genetransduced BEL7404 cells which irradiated with 60Co (BEL7404TNFCo group), TNFα genetransduced BEL7404 cells (BEL7404TNF group), BEL7404 cells (BEL7404 group), BEL7404 cell irradiated with 60Co (BEL7404Co group) respectively. Normal saline was injected in control group. Then mice liver cancer H22 cells were implanted to each group, the growth of mice liver cancer implanted tumors was observed. The apoptosis index of implanted tumors was detected by TUNEL method.ResultsCompared to BEL7404 group,BEL7404Co group and control group, the tumor vaccine which did not transduce with TNFα gene and the control group, the tumorigenesis rate of liver cancer implanted tumors was reduced, the growth of implanted tumors was inhibited and the apoptosis of implanted tumors was increased in BEL7404TNFCo group,P＜0.01.There was no difference between BEL7404TNFCo group and BEL7404TNF group,Pgt;0.05. ConclusionHuman tumor necrosis factoralpha genetransduced human liver cancer cell can be used as tumor vaccine, it has quite b effect of immune rejection to mice liver cancer implanted tumors.
In this study, the role of newcastle disease virus (NDV) combined thermic solidified tumor vaccine in inhibiting growth of tumor and immune control was investigated, and rate of inhibiting tumor and cellular immunity were measured. The results showed that rate of inhibiting tumor in experimental group Ⅰ and Ⅱ were 24.8% and 41.1% respectively; average weight of tumor was significantly lower in both experimental groups than in control group, and activity of natural killing (NK) cells in experimental groups was higher than that in control group (Ｐ＜0.01). This suggests that NDV combined thermic solidified tumor vaccine can inhibit growth of tumor and improve activity of NK cells, and their effects are better than that of NDV.
Objective To evaluate the effects of mass immunization campaign on the epidemiological characteristics of measles. Methods Comparison was made between the incidences of measles before and after the mass immunization campaign in 2007 in Shunqing prefecture of Nanchong city. Results The total number of the reported measles cases reached 460 during 2004 to 2007 in Shunqing prefecture of Nanchong city, and the respective annual rates of incidence were 4.04, 23.53, 11.84, and 33.57, respectively per 100 000 heads. Cases reported from April to July accounted to 73.91% of the total (340/460). Children under 15 were reported to have the highest incidence rate and accounted to 83.70% of the total (385/460), of which incidences of children under 1 accounted to 0%, 10.81%, 13.51% and 25.82%, respectively. Only 20.00% of the subjects (92/460) in this study had a definite history of measles vaccination. After the mass immunization campaign in September, 2007, only 10 cases were reported in 2008 and the incidence rate was 1.58 per 100 000 heads, a 95.29% decrease in incidence rate in comparison with that of the last year. Conclusion The mass immunization campaign has achieved substantial results.
Objective To investigate safety of influenza A H1N1 vaccine vaccinations. Methods A total of 3 300 medical workers were vaccinated by batch of 200909012 influenza A H1N1 vaccine produced by Shanghai Biological Products Corporation Limited according to the principle of voluntary and concentration. The adverse reactions were observed within half an hour, three days and a week after vaccinations, respectively. Results The inoculators with local or systemic reaction reached 1.18% (39/3 300). There were 0.15% (5/3 300) of the inoculators with adverse reaction within half an hour; 0.70% (23/3 300) within 1 to 3 days after vaccination; and 0.33% (11/3 300) within 3 days to 1 week after vaccination. No severe adverse events were found. Conclusion Influenza A H1N1 vaccine vaccinations is an economic and effective way of influenza A H1N1 prevention with mild reactions.
Objective To evaluate on immunogenicity and safety of measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine. Methods The PubMed, BIOSIS Previews, CDSR, The Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI and VIP were searched between Jan. 1990 and April 2010. Studies were included in the review if they were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about measles (M) – mumps (M) – rubella (R) and varicella (V) vaccine. Trial screening, data exaction and quality assessment of the included trials were conducted by the method recommended by Cochrane Collaboration. Statistical analyses were conducted by using RevMan 4.2.10 software. Results Five RCTs were included. Among those there were 2 trials of B degree and 3 trials of C degree. Meta-analyses showed that to different inoculation methods, (MMRV or MMR+V) the rate of pain was not significantly different with RR 0.94 and 95%CI 0.83 to 1.05 (P=0.28). The rate of redness was not significantly different with RR 1.08 and 95%CI 0.90 to 1.29 (P=0.40). The rate of hardening was not significantly different with RR 1.16 and 95%CI 0.95 to 1.43 (P=0.14). The rate of fever was significantly different with RR 1.20 and 95%CI 1.12 to 1.29 (Plt;0.000 01). The rate of skin rash was not significantly different with RR 1.18 and 95%CI 1.00 to 1.41 (P=0.05). The serum measles antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.68). The serum mumps antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 0.99 and 95%CI 0.50 to 1.01 (P=0.11). The serum rubella antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.68). The se-rum varicella antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.58). Conclusion Compared with MMR+V vaccine, the MMRV vaccine has the same immune effect. In respect of immune safety, in addition to higher rate of fever after vaccination, other local or systemic reaction is good. For the role of reducing vaccination times and good performance on immune effect and safety, the MMRV vaccine can be regarded as candidate vaccine for children. The fever caused by the new component should be strengthened in the following study. Limited to the quality and account for the current original documents, citing evidence of this systematic review would be cautious. Future studies would expand the sample size, fulfill the test design, increase indicators to improve the quality of research and demonstration intensity.
【Abstract】Objective To explore the effect against gastric cancer induced by Newcastle disease virus modified autologous tumor vaccine （NDV-ATV）pulsed dendritic cells(DCs). Methods The Newcastle disease virus infected the gastric cancer lines (MNK45) and was lost its activity. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) were cultured under condition of recombinant human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (1 000 u/ml)+IL-4(1 000 u/ml) + TNF-α(100 ng/ml). The tumor antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) was generated from activated autologous T cell by the Newcastle disease virus infected the MNK45 pulsed DC. And Cyto Tox 96TM in vitro assayed the cytotoxicity of CTL to MNK45. Thawed gastric cancer cell antigen were used as control in these experiments. Results The killing rate of MNK45 by antigen specific CTL reached (90.15±9.82)%, which was nearly twice as high as that of control(60.57±5.74)%. The CTL had much higher cytotoxicity to different differentiated type of gastric cancer cells such as MGC803〔(52.23±6.45)% 〕 and SGC7901〔 (61.75±8.84)%〕, as compared with LOVO〔(9.11±3.42)%〕 and HepG2 〔 (8.30±3.12)%〕tumor cells(P＜0.05). Conclusion Efficient and specific of against gastric cancer immunoreaction can be induced in virtue of NDV-ATV pulsed DCs, NDV-ATV loaded DCs might provide a new kind of theraputic means for gastric cancer.
Fungal infection is an important clinical problem for patients with immune deficiency or immunosuppression. With deadly fungus infection case increasing, the development of antifungal vaccine attracts the attention of researchers. Dendritic cell (DC) is the unique antigen presenting cell (APC) to trigger the antifungal immune reaction, and recent studies indicate that the targeted vaccination strategy based on DC have prospective antifungal potentials. In this paper, we review the antifungal immunity mechanism and recent development of the targeted DC antifungal strategy.
