The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, best known for its role in preventing tuberculosis, has recently garnered attention broader immunomodulatory effects. By inducing trained immunity, BCG reprograms innate immune cells, enhancing their responses to various pathogens. This process, driven by epigenetic and metabolic reprogramming, suggests that may have therapeutic potential far beyond tuberculosis. Emerging evidence points benefits conditions such as autoimmune diseases, cancer, viral infections. Furthermore, modulating activity, been proposed reduce chronic inflammation promote tolerance. review delves into the multifaceted of BCG, highlighting a versatile tool managing wide range diseases.

The devastating impact of respiratory infections demonstrates the critical need for novel prophylactic vaccines. In this opinion article, we advocate bacterial immunotherapies as a complementary tool in our fight against infections. These can activate wide spectrum immunological mechanisms, with trained immunity (TI) being particularly significant. This phenomenon has led to concept immunity-based vaccines (TIbVs), which represent approach vaccinology. We discuss examples TIbVs, including tuberculosis vaccine Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and polybacterial immunotherapy MV130. From viewpoint, illustrating mode action clinical evidence supports proposal that TIbVs should be considered next-generation confer protection range

Vaccine formulations are a successful strategy against pathogen transmission because vaccine candidates induce effective and long-lasting memory immune responses (B CD4+ T cells) at systemic mucosal sites. Extracellular vesicles of lipoproteins, bioactive compounds from plants invertebrates (sponges) encapsulated in liposomes, glycoproteins can target these The developed mimic microbial pathogens way that successfully links the innate adaptive responses.
