Vaccination can be accepted as the main strategy in preventing infections, but vaccination of cancer patients is a complex approach. The diversity of immunodeficiencies in different hematological disorders, and the change of immunosuppression during the course of the illness, lower vaccine responses, difficulty in conducting clinical trials with ...

Vaccines to Prevent and Treat Autoimmune Diseases
International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2009The current therapy for human autoimmune disease is based on nonselective immunosuppression achieved by corticosteroids or cytotoxic drugs. This form of therapy is toxic and frequently not effective in curing the disease. The study of experimental autoimmune disease models indicates that the pathogenic population of immune cells is restricted in terms ...

Vaccination for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease
Drugs of Today, 2000In vitro studies showed that beta-amyloid peptide neurotoxicity correlates with the formation of fibrillar beta-amyloid and the variation in neurotoxic potency is related to the extent of peptide aggregation. Many efforts are being focused on the development of potent and selective inhibitors of amyloid formation in order to reduce the extent of their ...

This chapter discusses disease entities that are vaccine preventable. Diseases not likely to be seen by physicians because of near eradication include diphtheria, tetanus, polio, and rabies. However, suspected rabies exposure is common, and initiating post-exposure prophylaxis is essential to preventing rabies.
