Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection represents one of the most common infections during childhood, with significant morbidity and mortality in newborns early years life. RSV is a throughout all age groups, largely undetected underestimated adults, disproportionately high impact older individuals. has wide range clinical presentations, from asymptomatic conditions to acute pneumonia severe life-threatening respiratory distress, including exacerbations underlying chronic conditions. Overall, incidence requiring medical attention increases age, it highest among persons ≥ 70 age. As consequence combination an aging population, immunosenescence, related increased burden comorbidities, high-income countries are at risk developing epidemics. The standard care for RSV-infected patients remains supportive, fluids, antipyretics, oxygen support when needed. There urgent need antivirals preventive strategies this particularly individuals higher outcomes following infection. In review, we describe prevention treatment illnesses, deep focus on novel data vaccination that become available (Arexvy, GSK, Abrysvo, Pfizer) adults.

Abstract Background The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has led to the development of various vaccines. Real-life data on immune responses elicited in most vulnerable group vaccinees older than age 80 years old are still underrepresented despite prioritization elderly vaccination campaigns. Methods We conducted a cohort study with groups, young below 60 and over years, compare their antibody first second dose BNT162b2 disease 2019 vaccination. Results Although majority participants both groups produced specific immunoglobulin G titers against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, were significantly lower participants. increment levels after immunization was higher participants, absolute mean titer this remained <60 group. After vaccination, 31.3% had no detectable neutralizing antibodies contrast younger group, which only 2.2% antibodies. Conclusions Our showed differences between raised particular frequencies This suggests that population needs be closely monitored may require earlier revaccination and/or an increased vaccine ensure stronger long-lasting immunity protection infection.

The novel coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 causing the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has ravaged world with over 72 million total cases and 1.6 deaths worldwide as of early December 2020. An overwhelming preponderance is observed within elderly population, especially in those pre-existing conditions comorbidities. Aging causes numerous biological changes immune system, which are linked to age-related illnesses susceptibility infectious diseases. Age-related influence host response therefore not only weaken ability fight infections but also mount effective responses vaccines. Immunosenescence inflamm-aging considered key features aging system wherein accumulation senescent cells contribute its decline simultaneously increased inflammatory phenotypes cause dysfunction. quantitative qualitative affect soluble mediators both innate adaptive lymphoid non-lymphoid peripheral tissues. These determine infections, progression clinical outcomes thereafter. Furthermore, therapeutics vaccines influenced by system. Therefore, better understanding pathophysiology will help understand diseases guide targeted management strategies for deadly like COVID-19.

mRNA vaccines have been demonstrated as a powerful alternative to traditional conventional because of their high potency, safety and efficacy, capacity for rapid clinical development, potential rapid, low-cost manufacturing. These progressed from being mere curiosity emerging COVID-19 pandemic vaccine front-runners. The advancements in the field nanotechnology developing delivery vehicles are highly significant. In this review we summarized each every aspect vaccine. article describes structure, its pharmacological function immunity induction, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), upstream, downstream, formulation process Additionally, trials also described.

Summary It is widely accepted that aging accompanied by remodelling of the immune system including thymic atrophy and increased frequency senescent T cells, leading to compromise. However, physical activity, which influences immunity but declines dramatically with age, not considered in this literature. We assessed profiles 125 adults (55–79 years) who had maintained a high level activity (cycling) for much their adult lives, 75 age‐matched older 55 young involved regular exercise. The naïve cells recent emigrants ( RTE ) were both higher cyclists compared inactive elders, was no different adults. Compared less active counterparts, significantly serum levels thymoprotective cytokine IL ‐7 lower ‐6, promotes atrophy. Cyclists also showed additional evidence reduced immunesenescence, namely Th17 polarization B regulatory cell than elders. Physical did protect against all aspects immunesenescence: CD 28 −ve 57 +ve 8 T‐cell differ between conclude many features immunesenescence may be driven age.

Over the past decade, messenger RNA (mRNA) has emerged as potent and flexible platform for development of novel effective cancer immunotherapies. Advances in non-viral gene delivery technologies, especially tremendous progress lipid nanoparticles’ manufacturing, have made possible implementation mRNA-based antitumor treatments. Several immunotherapies demonstrated effect preclinical clinical studies, marked successes been achieved most notably by its therapeutic vaccines, cytokines therapies, checkpoint blockade chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) cell therapy. In this review, we summarize recent advances nanoparticles their applications treatment. Finally, also highlight variety immunotherapeutic approaches through mRNA discuss main factors affecting transfection efficiency tropism mRNA-loaded vivo.
