Two newly developed vaccine candidates (A and B) are tested in mice for their ability to elicit high concentrations of anti-meningococcal antibodies that would provide mucosal as well as bloodstream protection. Also, the ideal candidate vaccine should also provide long-lasting immunity to the infection. The figure below shows the responses to a primary, followed by a secondary immunization to each of the two candidate vaccines.
a) Which candidate vaccine elicits the preferred response? What are the three aspects of the preferred response that make it the candidate vaccine of choice?
b) What is the likely composition of each vaccine and what evidence from the information above are used to lead to your conclusions?
c) To confirm the choice of the preferred candidate vaccine, what type of additional information from the vaccine trials in mice shown above would support this conclusion? Name two additional features of the secondary antibody response to each candidate vaccine that could be…
Do vaccines produce active or passive humoral immunity? Explain your answer. Why is passive immunity less satisfactory?
Most vaccines are designed to be preventative or prophylactic. What does this mean?

Which of these has the greatest potentialto cause active disease in the recipient? Which typically providesthe longest-lasting immunity?arrow_forwardTwo newly developed vaccine candidates (A and B) are tested in mice for their ability to elicit high concentrations of anti-meningococcal antibodies that would provide mucosal as well as bloodstream protection. Also, the ideal candidate vaccine should also provide long-lasting immunity to the infection. Below is a diagram of the results from the primary immunization with both candidate vaccines. What is the predominant antibody isotype elicited by the primary immunization with these candidate vaccines? In which part of the body is that antibody primarily found?arrow_forward
- what is the importance of vaccine and herd immunity?arrow_forwardWhat are vaccines and how does it contribute to both the innate and adaptive immune responses? Explain the mechanisms of vaccines and how it results into B cells and T cells. Provide an example of a vaccine by including its type, its structure, how it was made, and how it influences it’s respective pathogen.arrow_forwardGive an example for each: natural and artificial active immunityand natural and artificial passive immunityarrow_forward
- Name the different types of immune responses that vaccines aim to induce.arrow_forwardA 40-year-old man with a complement deficiency agrees to participate in a clinical study of immune mechanisms. The subject is unable to activate the complement system by the classical pathway, but he can activate the complement system by the alternate pathway. Deletion of which of the following components is consistent with these findings? A) C2 B) C3 C) C5 D) C8 E) Factor B F) Factor D OG) Factor H OH) von Willebrand factorarrow_forwardFor which disease active and passive immunization (antibodies) is given simultaneously? Explain how effective this strategy would be and whyarrow_forward
- What scenario best describes an autoimmune reaction? Group of answer choices The destruction of donated red blood cells by the recipient’s immune system The production of antibodies against Streptococcus pyogenes antigen resulting in cross-reaction against an antigen found on heart valves The activation of Mast cells by pollen The production of antibodies against Streptococcus pyogenes resulting in the deposit of antigen-antibodies in the kidney leading to glomerulonephritisarrow_forwardDistinguish between the innate and adaptive immune systems in terms of cell types used, how they recognize pathogens, and how they protect animals from infection. Predict how perturbations in immune cells or immune responses influence innate immune system function. Predict how perturbations in immune cells or immune responses influence adaptive immune system function. Explain how traditional and mRNA vaccines work using the terms: antibody, antigen, B-cells, helper T-cells, plasma cells, and memory B-cells. Predict whether an infection or perturbations in B- and T- cell development might predispose someone to develop an autoimmune disease.arrow_forwardVaccines are biological preparations that establishes or improves immunity to a particular disease.
