Delayed hypersensitivity to influenza virus in man.

P Cole, M Molyneux

    Developments in Biological Standardization
    |January 1, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary

    Adjuvanted influenza vaccines enhance delayed hypersensitivity responses in humans, unlike standard non-adjuvanted vaccines. This finding highlights the impact of adjuvants on cellular immunity to influenza antigens.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Vaccinology
    • Cellular Immunity

    Background:

    • Delayed hypersensitivity is a key immune response to influenza antigens.
    • This cellular immune response can be measured using skin tests and lymphocyte transformation assays.
    • Current commercial influenza vaccines are primarily non-adjuvanted.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the effect of adjuvanted influenza vaccine on delayed hypersensitivity.
    • To compare the immune response elicited by adjuvanted versus non-adjuvanted influenza vaccines.

    Main Methods:

    • Delayed hypersensitivity was assessed in human subjects.
    • Methods included intradermal skin testing and in vitro lymphocyte transformation assays.
    • The response to both adjuvanted and non-adjuvanted influenza vaccines was evaluated.

    Main Results:

    • Delayed hypersensitivity to influenza antigen was demonstrable in human participants.
    • Adjuvanted influenza vaccine significantly enhanced this delayed hypersensitivity response.
    • Non-adjuvanted influenza vaccine, in contrast, did not show a similar enhancement.

    Conclusions:

    • Adjuvants play a crucial role in augmenting cellular immune responses to influenza antigens.
    • Adjuvanted influenza vaccines may elicit a more robust cellular immunity compared to non-adjuvanted formulations.
    • Further research into adjuvant-enhanced influenza vaccines is warranted for improved immune protection.
