The effect of birth weight and gestational age on BCG-induced immune responses in infants following BCG vaccination [PDF]
, 2010 Includes bibliographical references (leaves 102-114).Bacillus Calmette?Gu?rin (BCG), the only currently licensed tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, provides variable efficacy. Despite the use of BCG, TB remains a global health problem.

Epidemiology of childhood tuberculosis after ceasing universal Bacillus Calmette–Guérin vaccination
Scientific Reports, 2021 Universal Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) vaccination is recommended in countries with high tuberculosis (TB) burden. Nevertheless, several countries have ceased universal BCG vaccination over the past 40 years, with scarce comparative epidemiological ...

Impact of vaccine platform and BCG vaccination on antibody responses to COVID-19 vaccination
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Multiple factors, including vaccine platform and prior vaccinations, influence vaccine responses. We compared antibody responses to CoronaVac (Sinovac) and ChAdOx1-S (AstraZeneca-Oxford) vaccination in 874 healthcare workers in Brazil.

BCG Vaccine – The Road Not Taken
Microorganisms, 2022 The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine has been used for over one hundred years to protect against the most lethal infectious agent in human history, tuberculosis. Over four billion BCG doses have been given and, worldwide, most newborns receive BCG.

BCG vaccination–induced emergency granulopoiesis provides rapid protection from neonatal sepsis
Science Translational Medicine, 2020 Neonatal administration of BCG vaccine rapidly increases neutrophil production to reduce mortality from sepsis. The vaccine that keeps on giving Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) is a tuberculosis vaccine that is frequently given to infants in countries with

An Intravesical Akkermansia muciniphila‐Based Chemo‐Immunotherapeutic Platform for Bladder Cancer
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila is engineered into an intravesical F127/doxorubicin platform that couples localized chemotherapy with immune remodeling. By inducing apoptosis, ferroptosis, and immunogenic cell death, this chemo‐immunotherapeutic system enhances dendritic‐cell maturation, antigen cross‐presentation, and tumor‐specific CD8+ T‐cell ...

Could BCG Vaccination Induce Protective Trained Immunity for SARS-CoV-2?
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 Trained immunity is a type of non-specific memory-like immune response induced by some pathogens and vaccines, such as BCG, which can confer antigen-independent protection against a wide variety of pathogens.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Engineered Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 with a tannic acid‐mediated BPA coating enables tumor‐targeted boron delivery for BNCT. The low‐level incidental radiation generated during BNCT activate a RecA‐driven circuit to induce CXCL10, while radiation‐enhanced bacterial colonization triggers in situ vaccination and systemic antitumor immunity.
