BACKGROUND A recent trial with PCV-7 in a rural Gambian community showed reduced vaccine-type pneumococcal carriage in fully vaccinated compared with control communities. We measured pneumococcal polysaccharide antibody concentrations in this trial to understand further the mechanisms underlying the observed changes. METHODS A single-blind, cluster-randomized (by village) trial was conducted ...

BACKGROUND Serotype-specific antibody responses to unconjugated pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) evaluated by a World Health Organization (WHO)-standardized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) are the gold standard for diagnosis of specific polysaccharide antibody deficiency (SAD). The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI) has proposed guidelines to interpret...

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and on dialysis are at increased risk of pneumococcal disease. We evaluated the immunogenicity of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in this population. Eligible patients with ESRD and on dialysis were given a single dose of PCV13. The concentrations of serum antibodies against 13 pneumococcal capsular polysaccharides were measured ...

There is controversy on the role of IgM memory and switched memory B lymphocytes in the Ab response to T cell-independent and T cell-dependent Ags. We transplanted SCID/SCID mice with human B lymphocyte subsets and immunized them with heat-inactivated Streptococcus pneumoniae or with a pneumococcal vaccine. Inactivated S. pneumoniae and soluble pneumococcal capsular polysaccharides elicited an ...

Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 6B and 6A are important causes of infections, yet only 6B is included in current vaccines. It is, therefore, crucial to evaluate whether functional antibodies are produced against both types after vaccination. Concentration and opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) of antibodies to 6B and 6A polysaccharides were determined in serum samples from infants immunized wit...

Antibody levels specific for capsular polysaccharides of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) and for tetanus toxoid were measured in serum samples of 386 age-stratified subjects. The study group consists of healthy adult blood donors and hospitalized children undergoing elective surgery, excluding individuals with a history of infection. In children, anti-tetanus to...
