Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is the commonest cause of severe respiratory infection in
infants, leading to over 3 million hospitalizations and around 66,000 deaths worldwide each …

Preclinical and human vaccine studies indicate that, although neonatal immunisation does
not generally lead to rapid and strong antibody responses, it may result in an efficient …

Recent surveys found that an increasing number of parents are concerned that infants
receive too many vaccines. Implicit in this concern is that the infant's immune system is …

Several mechanisms have been suggested as mediating the inhibitory influence of maternal
antibodies (MatAb) on infant responses. This inhibition is B cell determinant-specific …

Dengue is the most common vector-borne viral disease, causing nearly 400 million
infections yearly. Currently there are no approved therapies. Antibody epitopes that elicit …

Maternal antibodies (MatAbs) protect offspring from infections but limit their responses to
vaccination. The mechanisms of this inhibition are still debated. Using murine early-life …

Enteric viral infections in domestic animals cause significant economic losses. The recent
emergence of virulent enteric coronaviruses [porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV)] in …

This paper reviews literature on passively transferred maternal antibodies against measles
in infants. The amount and decay of these antibodies can be a result of changing patterns in …

Equine influenza is one of the most economically important contagious respiratory diseases
of horses. In this paper the current state of knowledge of equine influenza virus and the most …

Immune maturation is responsible for a progressive increase in antibody responses that can
be elicited during the first year of life, such that neonatal immunization may currently not be …
