The cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response of infants after immunization with either inactivated trivalent subvirion vaccine (TIV) or bivalent attenuated cold-recombinant (CR) vaccine or occurrence of natural influenza virus infection were compared in a blinded, placebo-controlled study during the 1987-1988 and 1988-1989 influenza epidemic seasons. Healthy infants between 6 and 13 months of age were randomly assigned and administered a single dose of intranasal bivalent (A/H3N2/A/H1N1) CR vaccine, a two-dose regimen of TIV (A/H3N2/A/H1N1/B) influenza vaccine, or placebo. Peripheral blood lymphocytes were obtained prior to and 2-8 weeks after vaccination and at the end of the epidemic season and stimulated with virus in vitro for 6 or 7 days. Lysis of autologous virus-infected target cells was assessed in a 4 hr 51Cr release assay. MHC class I-restricted influenza A-specific CTL was stimulated following natural influenza A virus infection but not after immunization with CR influenza A virus vaccine or TIV. These results demonstrate for the first time induction of influenza virus-specific CTL activity in infants under 1 year of age.

D007114 Immunization Deliberate stimulation of the host's immune response. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of ANTIGENS or IMMUNOLOGIC ADJUVANTS. PASSIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of IMMUNE SERA or LYMPHOCYTES or their extracts (e.g., transfer factor, immune RNA) or transplantation of immunocompetent cell producing tissue (thymus or bone marrow).

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.
