Serological responses in humans to the smallpox vaccine LC16m8
In response to potential bioterrorism with smallpox, members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces were vaccinated with vaccinia virus (VACV) strain LC16m8, an attenuated smallpox vaccine derived from VACV strain Lister. The serological response induced by LC16m8 to four virion-surface proteins and the intracellular mature virus (IMV) and extracellular enveloped virus (EEV) was investigated. LC16...
متن کاملPregnancy associated with haemorrhagic smallpox.
I N a country where smallpox is common, one would expect an association of smallpox with pregnancy to be a common occurrence. But a careful study of the available literature shows that not many such cases have been reported. When smallpox affects a pregnant woman, it tends to become very malignant. The sudden onset of signs and symptoms and the short duration of the disease and the rapid termin...
متن کاملAdventitious Viruses and Smallpox Vaccine
To the Editor: Recently, Murphy and Osburn (1) strongly argued for testing old smallpox vaccine stocks made in animal skin for adventitious infectious agents such as viruses, mycoplasmas, and eventually, prions. Their argument appears clearly justified after unexpected cases of myopericarditis occurred during recent campaigns of smallpox vaccinations in the United States (2). To the long list o...
متن کاملCurrent status of smallpox vaccine.
To the Editor: The possible use of smallpox virus as a weapon by terrorists has stimulated growing international concern and led to a recent review by the World Health Organization of the global availability of smallpox vaccine. This review found approximately 60 million doses worldwide, with little current vaccine manufacture, although limited vaccine seed remains available (1). Ongoing discus...
متن کاملCytokine expression patterns associated with systemic adverse events following smallpox immunization.
Vaccinia virus is reactogenic in a significant number of vaccinees, with the most common adverse events being fever, lymphadenopathy, and rash. Although the inoculation is given in the skin, these adverse events suggest a robust systemic inflammatory response. To elucidate the cytokine response signature of systemic adverse events, we used a protein microarray technique to precisely quantitate ...
