A Framework for Understanding Maternal Immunity
Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2023This is an alternative and controversial framing of the data relevant to maternal immunity. It argues for a departure from classical theory to view, interrogate and interpret existing data.

Maternal immune transfer in mollusc
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2015Maternal immunity refers to the immunity transferred from mother to offspring via egg, playing an important role in protecting the offspring at early life stages and contributing a trans-generational effect on offspring's phenotype. Because fertilization is external in most of the molluscs, oocytes and early embryos are directly exposed to pathogens in

Obstetrics & Gynecology
Immunization is an essential part of preventive care for adults, including pregnant individuals. Each vaccine recommended for pregnant patients is important for the protection of the maternal–child dyad. Other vaccines provide maternal protection from severe morbidity related to specific pathogens such as pneumococcus, meningococcus, and hepatitis for ...

Maternal Pertussis Immunization
JAMA, 2014Pertussis (whooping cough) is a highly contagious and potentially fatal disease that is preventable by vaccination. However, the incidence of whooping cough has increased despite having high vaccine coverage rates in the United States.1 Infants younger than 12 months are especially susceptible to pertussis, and those younger than 2 months—too young to ...

Maternal immunization and malaria in pregnancy
Vaccine, 2003Malaria in pregnancy is a major cause of poor outcomes for both mother and fetus, and malaria-induced low birth weight (LBW) may kill nearly 400,000 African infants each year. The hallmark of pregnancy malaria due to Plasmodium falciparum is the sequestration of infected erythrocytes (IEs) in the placenta.

Maternal immune response to pregnancy
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 1989The pregnant female is exposed to a variety of potentially immunogenic foreign antigens on her allogenic intra-uterine conceptus. The extent to which maternal antibodies and cell-mediated immune responses to these antigens are relevant to the paradoxical survival of the fetal allograft is not clearly established. The key to the maintenance of pregnancy

Pharmacists’ role in maternal immunization
Journal of the American Pharmacists AssociationMaternal immunization is an important strategy to safeguard infants against vaccine-preventable diseases such as pertussis, which poses a significant economic burden on the health care system. Although the Tetanus, Diphtheria, and Pertussis vaccine has been recommended for pregnant individuals since 2018, uptake varies widely across Canadian provinces.

The Influence of Maternal Immunization on Infant Immune Responses
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2007The vaccination of human mothers during pregnancy leads to transplacental transfer of antibody which can provide protection to the neonate during early life. This active transfer is a receptor-mediated event with preferential transport of antibody of the IgG1 and IgG3 subclasses via the FcR(n) receptor.
