Antibody response to influenza A/New Jersey and A/Victoria virus vaccines in 1976 and subsequent antibody levels after influenza A epidemics, 1977-1979. 1980

Antibody levels before and after vaccination were studied among schoolchildren and young adults given commercial A/New Jersey/76 (HswN1), A/Victoria/75 (H3N2), and B/Hong Kong/72 vaccines in the fall of 1976. Children responded better to a single dose of the A/New Jersey subvirion vaccine than had previously been observed, particularly to a new subvirion vaccine. Hemagglutination-inhibiting antibody titers decreased during the first six months after vaccination but appeared stable thereafter. Persistence seemed to depend on the antigenic mass in the first dose, since persons given one or two doses of the most potent whole-virus vaccine had by far the highest levels of antibody to A/New Jersey virus after 2 1/2 years, higher than for those given two doses of any of the other vaccines. Natural infection with A/USSR (H1N1) influenza virus boostered the titers of antibody to A/New Jersey virus, particularly in children. Persons given a bivalent subvirion vaccine had the best response to A/Victoria antigen. Subvirion vaccines induced complement-fixing antibodies in half of the children.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007252 Influenza Vaccines Vaccines used to prevent infection by viruses in the family ORTHOMYXOVIRIDAE. It includes both killed and attenuated vaccines. The composition of the vaccines is changed each year in response to antigenic shifts and changes in prevalence of influenza virus strains. The flu vaccines may be mono- or multi-valent, which contains one or more ALPHAINFLUENZAVIRUS and BETAINFLUENZAVIRUS strains.

D009980 Influenza A virus The type species of the genus ALPHAINFLUENZAVIRUS that causes influenza and other diseases in humans and animals. Antigenic variation occurs frequently between strains, allowing classification into subtypes and variants. Transmission is usually by aerosol (human and most non-aquatic hosts) or waterborne (ducks). Infected birds shed the virus in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces.
