Current knowledge on PRRS virus immunology is still limited but it seems clear that modified live PRRS vaccines (MLV) are a reasonable choice for the immunization of pigs. Recently, interest in intradermal vaccination in swine has increased due to research into skin and subcutaneous tissue immunology and the possibility of using needle-free injection devices (NFIDs). The use of NFIDs in the swine industry offers some advantages over conventional needle-and-syringe methods, especially due to the reduced pain and stress to pigs and the increase in the uniformity of the dosage administered to the herd. Although intradermal PRRS virus vaccination in swine has been investigated, the high variability between different virus isolates makes it advisable to assess the intradermal response for each vaccine strain.. The MLV vaccine UNISTRAIN® PRRS has recently obtained the indication for intradermal administration with Hipradermic®, a needle-free injector with connectivity developed by HIPRA for the ...

CAB LA is safe and well-tolerated in humans, but injections can be painful and must be delivered in a clinic, which can limit access in low-resource settings (LRS). , To address this need, we developed minimally invasive microarray patches (MAPs) for intradermal delivery of CAB LA for (PrEP) of HIV-1 infection.Methods:To maximize drug loading capacity, MAP moulds, ...
The goal of the vaccination is to induce humoral (antibody) and intracellular (T lymphocyte) responses. Various data show that intradermal vaccination is more efficient than intramuscular vaccination: the humoral response is statistically better after intradermic vaccination, compared to intramuscular vaccination, even in target populations such as older subjects or immunosuppressed ...
An intradermal delivery device for use in intradermally injecting substances into the skin of an animal includes a needle cannula supported by a hub portion that is attachable to a prefillable container. A limiter portion surrounds the needle cannula and extends away from the hub portion toward a forward tip of the needle cannula. The limiter portion includes a skin engaging surface extending in a plane generally perpendicular to an axis of the needle cannula. The skin engaging surface is received against skin of an animal to administer an intradermal injection. The forward tip extends beyond the skin engaging surface a distance that enables penetration of the needle cannula into the dermis layer of the skin of the animal enabling injection of the substance into the dermis layer of the animal. The device includes enclosure means that is moveable for concealing the needle cannula after the injection has been administered.

Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is given by injection to help prevent tuberculosis (TB). TB is a serious disease that can cause severe illness. It is spread by close contact with people who already have TB, such as people living in the same house. Some infected people do not appear to be sick, but they can still spread TB to others. BCG vaccine does not provide 100% protection. Therefore it is important to avoid people with TB, even if you have received the vaccine. ...

1. Guinea pigs can be rendered hypersensitive to tuberculo-protein by small, repeated, intradermal injections of active tuberculo-protein.. 2. The addition of tuberculo-phosphatide to the protein speeds up the process of sensitization and enhances it so that the reactions become indurated and necrotic, closely simulating those of the disease.. 3. Active tuberculo-proteins induce a new formation of monocytes and some epithelioid cells. The addition of phosphatide to the protein brings about a massive formation of epithelioid cells.. 4. With the increased cellular reaction to the mixed injections may be correlated the increase in the speed and intensity of the sensitization.. 5. The intradermal route is the best for these sensitizations, probably because it provides the greatest dose per cell of the sensitizing agent.. 6. The degree of sensitization artificially obtainable by the synergistic action of tuberculo-phosphatide and tuberculo-protein is quite comparable to the degree of sensitization ...

Purpose: We evaluated the clinical benefit of an allogeneic melanoma cell lysate (MCL)-pulsed autologous dendritic cell (DC) vaccine in advanced colorectal cancer patients expressing at least one of six MAGE-A antigens overexpressed by the cell line source of the lysate.. Experimental Design: DCs were cultured from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), pulsed with the allogeneic MCL, and matured using cytokines that achieved high CD83- and CCR7-expressing DCs. Each patient received up to 10 intradermal vaccinations (3-5 × 106 cells per dose) at biweekly intervals.. Results: Twenty patients received a total of 161 vaccinations. Treatment was well tolerated and quality of life measurements did not vary much across time. One patient experienced partial response [5%; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1-24%] and seven achieved stable disease (35%; 95% CI, 18-57%), one of whom also achieved late tumor regression, yielding a clinical benefit response rate of 40% (95% CI, 22-61%). Although overall ...
This phase II clinical trial was directed at evaluating the immunogenicity and the safety of the HIV-1 Tat protein-based vaccine. Anti-Tat antibody negative, HIV-1 positive subjects treated successfully with HAART have been screened and recruited for a 48-weeks study, including a period of 16 or 8 weeks treatment phase and a period of 32 or 40 weeks follow-up phase, in arm A or Arm B, respectively. One hundred sixty-eight subjects have been randomized 1:1:1:1 to one of the 2 arms (Arm A and Arm B) and each arm has been divided in the following groups:. Arm A - Group I: 5 immunizations with Tat (7.5 microg) at weeks 0, 4, 8, 12, 16; Arm A - Group II: 5 immunizations with Tat (30 microg) at weeks 0, 4, 8, 12, 16; Arm B - Group I: 3 immunizations with Tat (7.5 microg) at weeks 0, 4, 8; Arm B - Group II: 3 immunizations with Tat (30 microg) at weeks 0, 4, 8.. Four vaccination regimens have been tested by intradermal administration of the Tat vaccine at two different doses (7.5 microg or 30 microg) ...
Innate immunity serves as the first line of immune defense and is critical to shaping the adaptive immune response to infection. Historically, adjuvants targeting innate immune pathways and cells have been used to enhance vaccine efficacy. Yet, the effects of the innate immune responses on pre-erythrocytic infection and their impact on adaptive immunity remain woefully understudied. In particular, how does the contribution of innate immune signaling pathways alongside the following: 1) Ag presentation by hepatocytes, 2) Ag presentation by professional APCs, and 3) immunoregulation by recruited leukocytes ultimately contribute to the generation of protective pre-erythrocytic immunity?. Intradermal administration of sporozoites or mosquito bite delivery promotes the recruitment of neutrophils, CD8+CD11c+ dendritic cells, and inflammatory monocytes at the site of injection in the skin and also within skin-draining lymph nodes (SDLN). Although recruited neutrophils are dispensable for the ensuing ...
Of 17 evaluable patients, five developed specific anti-vaccine antibodies, and eight developed anti-Fab T-cell responses. T-cell reactivity was independent of the cellular immune status and was idiotype specific as shown by statistical regression analysis (P = 0.0024) and epitope mapping studies. Intradermal administration of uncoupled recombinant idiotype with appropriate adjuvants may overcome profound clinical immunosuppression and induce specific immune responses. ...
Nitric oxide (NO) is a therapeutic implicated for the treatment of diseases affecting lymphatic tissues, which range from infectious and cardiovascular diseases to cancer. Existing technologies available for NO therapy, however, provide poor bioactivity within lymphatic tissues. In this work, we address this technology gap with a NO encapsulation and delivery strategy leveraging the formation of S-nitrosothiols on lymphatic-targeting Pluronic-stabilized, poly(propylene sulfide)-core nanoparticles (SNO-NP). We evaluated in vivo the lymphatic versus systemic delivery of NO resulting from intradermal administration of SNO-NP benchmarked against a commonly used, commercially available small molecule S-nitrosothiol NO donor, examined signs of toxicity systemically as well as localized to the site of injection, and investigated SNO effects on lymphatic transport and NP uptake by LN-resident cells ...

This investigation is aimed at finding a biologically effective means of delivering anti-TNF- α antibodies to the intradermal microenvironment of the skin in humans. These antibodies are potent tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors and efficient therapeutics for many inflammatory diseases. Due to inefficiencies pertaining to existing methods, the authors evaluated the applicability of tip-loaded dissolvable microneedle arrays (MNAs) for localized intradermal delivery of the antibodies.
Vaccination compliance will predictably become a significant concern as current schedules approach the limit of public acceptance [1] and new vaccines become available. The development of combination vaccines is a common practice that addresses the concern of repeated visits to the clinic by reducing the total number of injections required compared with administration schedules for the monovalent vaccines. Yet, physical, chemical, and biological interactions between the components of combination vaccines must be considered to avoid detrimental effects on safety or efficacy. For example, when the Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccine was combined with diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine, a decrease in antibody titer for the Hib vaccine was observed [2]. Thus, there is a need to develop new approaches for delivery of multiple vaccines.. We evaluated delivery of multiple vaccines intradermally (i.d.) to physically isolate each component, thus directly preventing formulation ...
The colostrum-derived antibodies protect piglets in early life. Levels of these antibodies gradually decrease in sera of growing piglets and according to the prevailing opinion they decline so much at a certain time point that they cannot protect the organism against infection and even block the onset of active immunity.

Purpose: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with several cancers in which the tumor cells express EBV antigens EBNA1 and LMP2. A therapeutic vaccine comprising a recombinant vaccinia virus, MVA-EL, was designed to boost immunity to these tumor antigens. A phase I trial was conducted to demonstrate the safety and immunogenicity of MVA-EL across a range of doses. Experimental Design: Sixteen patients in the United Kingdom (UK) with EBV-positive nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) received three intradermal vaccinations of MVA-EL at 3-weekly intervals at dose levels between 5 × 107 and 5 × 108 plaque-forming units (pfu). Blood samples were taken at screening, after each vaccine cycle, and during the post-vaccination period. T-cell responses were measured using IFNγ ELISpot assays with overlapping EBNA1/LMP2 peptide mixes or HLA-matched epitope peptides. Polychromatic flow cytometry was used to characterize functionally responsive T-cell populations. Results: Vaccination was generally well ...
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and type 2 conventional dendritic cells (cDC2s) are currently under evaluation for use in cancer vaccines. Although both DC subsets can activate adaptive and innate lymphocytes, their capacity to recruit such cells is rarely considered. Here, we show that pDCs and cDC2s display a striking difference in chemokine secretion, which correlates with the recruitment of distinct types of immune effector cells. Activated pDCs express high levels of CXCR3 ligands and attract more CD8 T cells, CD56 T cells, and γδ T cells in vitro, compared to cDC2s. Skin from melanoma patients shows an influx of immune effector cells following intradermal vaccination with pDCs or cDC2s, with pDCs inducing the strongest influx of lymphocytes known to possess cytolytic activity. These findings suggest that combining both DC subsets could unite the preferred chemoattractive properties of pDCs with the superior T cell priming properties of cDC2s to ultimately enhance vaccine efficacy ...
A major aim of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of the two techniques for administering the vaccine. Immunization with rV-CEA by intradermal needle injection or s.c. jet injection was associated with modest toxicity. All patients demonstrated some degree of local inflammation at the site of primary inoculation, which was comparable between the two groups. Most patients experienced pruritis at the inoculation site, which was more frequent and more intense with intradermal administration. Pruritis was self-limited and required no therapy. Systemic toxicity was limited to low-grade fever and increased fatigue, each affecting fewer than 20% of the patients. Thus, both techniques of administration were well tolerated, with no compelling reason to recommend one technique over the other, based upon toxicity profiles. Because no evidence of immune response to CEA was observed, the efficacy comparison between the two groups was based upon the induction of immune response to the vaccinia ...
MHYOSPHERE® PCV ID is the first intradermal & needle-free vaccine against M.hyo & Circovirus PCV2, all in one and ready-to-use in swine.
In Korea, a percutaneous BCG vaccine manufactured from the Tokyo 172 strain, an intradermal BCG vaccine manufactured from the Tokyo 172 strain, and an intradermal BCG vaccine manufactured from the Danish 1331 strain are authorized and distributed. In addition, BCG vaccine for intradermal administration from the Pasteur strain is under development. At present, the CFU assay is the only potency test method to determine viable cell count in BCG vaccine, the gold standard method recommended by the WHO. However, because this method has limitations, development of alternative test methods is needed. Although various alternative methods, such as ATP and XTT assays, have been developed, they cannot be used in place of the CFU assay, because enzyme activity level does not necessarily mean cell viability. Indeed, it was reported that an enzymatic activity could be still detected in dead cells or esterase activity was increased in dead cells, which was due to the remaining enzymatic activity facilitating ...
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the depth-dependent intradermal immunogenicity of inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) delivered by depth-controlled microinjections via hollow microneedles (HMN) and to investigate antibody response enhancing effects of IPV immunization adjuvanted with CpG oligodeoxynucleotide 1826 (CpG) or cholera toxin (CT). METHODS A novel applicator for HMN was designed to permit depth- and volume-controlled microinjections. The applicator was used to immunize rats intradermally with monovalent IPV serotype 1 (IPV1) at injection depths ranging from 50 to 550 μm, or at 400 μm for CpG and CT adjuvanted immunization, which were compared to intramuscular immunization. RESULTS The applicator allowed accurate microinjections into rat skin at predetermined injection depths (50-900 μm), -volumes (1-100 μL) and -rates (up to 60 μL/min) with minimal volume loss (±1-2%). HMN-mediated intradermal immunization resulted in similar IgG and virus-neutralizing antibody ...
One contributing factor to the increased ability of more stable antigens to elicit immune responses is that the restricted susceptibility to lysosomal proteolysis favored the production of peptide-MHC class II complexes by DCs, at least in vitro (Fig. 2 E and Fig. 4 D). In addition, and just as important in an in vivo setting, we found that the increased stability to lysosomal proteolysis also favored the retention of antigens captured by DCs to lymphoid organs. 16 h after a single intradermal injection, the stable forms of RNase (Alexa 488-RNase-A) could be detected in CD11c+ DCs in the draining lymph nodes (Fig. 1 D). In contrast, the rapidly degraded form (Alexa 647-RNase-S) was barely detectable under the same conditions (Fig. 1 D). Combined with the fact that differential immunogenicity was observed by adoptively transferring DCs containing either RNase-A or RNase-S (Fig. 2 D), these results strongly suggest that at least one effect of decreased susceptibility to proteolysis is to ...

Intradermal injection is the injection of a substance into the dermis, just below the epidermis. This route has the longest absorption time as compared to subcutaneous injections and intramuscular injections. As a result, it is used for sensitivity tests, like tuberculin and allergy tests, and for local anesthesia. Additionally, the bodys reaction to substances is more easily visible since it is closer to the surface. Common injection sites include the inner surface of the forearm and the upper back, under the scapula. Equipment include syringes calibrated in tenths and hundredths of a milliliter. The dosage given is usually less than 0.5 mL, less than given subcutaneously or intramuscularly. A 1/4 to 1/2 long and 26 or 27 gauge thick needle is used. The angle of administration is 5 to 15 degrees angle, almost against the skin. With bevel (opening) side up, insert about 1/8 with entire bevel inside and inject while watching for a small wheal or blister to appear. Taylor, C. R., Lillis, C., ...
To develop a more effective vaccination method against H5N1 virus, we investigated the immunogenicity and protective efficacy after skin vaccination using microneedles coated with influenza virus-like particles containing hemagglutinin derived from A/Vietnam/1203/04 H5N1 virus (H5 VLPs). microneedle vaccination. Thus, this study provides evidence that skin delivery of H5 VLP vaccines using microneedles designed for self-administration induces improved protection compared to conventional intramuscular immunization. Keywords: H5N1, pandemic vaccine, single dose, skin vaccination, microneedles Avian H5N1 influenza infections trigger sporadic zoonotic attacks to human beings with high fatality prices of 60% (Sims et al., 2005; Webster et al., 2005). Furthermore, the pandemic potential of the viruses poses a significant threat to general public wellness. The influenza pandemic due to this years 2009 H1N1 pathogen provided a chance to examine DIAPH1 the efficiency of current vaccination. The ...
In both studies, pharmacokinetic data showed that cabotegravir and rilpivirine concentrations in the blood remained above effective thresholds throughout the study and were similar to levels reached with the corresponding oral formulations.. Treatment was generally safe and well tolerated. Serious adverse events were rare among people using cabotegravir and rilpivirine (none in ATLAS and one in FLAIR). There were no cases of drug hypersensitivity or liver toxicity. In both trials, 3% of participants stopped treatment with the injectables due to adverse events.. Injection site reactions - predominately pain - occurred in 20% to 30% of participants. These were most common early in the study, were generally mild or moderate and improved over time, lasting a median of three days. Four people in ATLAS and three in FLAIR dropped out due to injection site reactions.. The researchers also evaluated patient satisfaction and preferences, finding that those receiving the injectables were more satisfied ...

Fujifilm has joined one of the latest drug-delivery trends with a microneedle array that delivers drugs and vaccines just under the skin.
Methods and devices are provided for delivering a drug to or withdrawing a fluid from a biological tissue, such the skin, sclera, cornea, and conjunctiva. One method includes the steps of inserting at least one microneedle into the biological tissue; partially retracting the at least one microneedle from the tissue; and then delivering at least one drug formulation into the biological tissue via the partially retracted at least one microneedle. The microneedle deforms and penetrates the biological tissue during the insertion step, and the retraction step at least partially relaxes the tissue deformation while maintaining at least part of the tissue penetration, facilitating drug delivery or fluid withdrawal.

Intramuscular injection with plasmid DNA encoding the human thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) has been known to elicit symptoms of Graves disease (GD) in outbred but not inbred mice. In this study, we have examined, firstly, whether intradermal (i.d.) injection of TSHR DNA can induce hyperthyroidism in BALB/c mice and, secondly, whether coinjection of TSHR- and cytokine-producing plasmids can influence the outcome of disease. Animals were i.d. challenged at 0, 3 and 6 weeks with TSHR DNA and the immune response was assessed at the end of the 8th or 10th week. In two experiments, a total of 10 (67%) of 15 mice developed TSHR-specific antibodies as assessed by flow cytometry. Of these, 4 (27%) mice had elevated thyroxine (TT4) levels and goitrous thyroids with activated follicular epithelial cells but no evidence of lymphocytic infiltration. At 10 weeks, thyroid-stimulating antibodies (TSAb) were detected in two out of the four hyperthyroid animals. Interestingly, in mice that received a coinjection of TSHR-

AU - Freet, Kim J.. AU - Barthold, Stephen W. PY - 2003/9/1. Y1 - 2003/9/1. N2 - The population dynamics of Borrelia burgdorferi were quantified by real-time PCR targeting the flaB gene in skin (inoculation site, noninoculation site, and ear), heart (heart base and ventricle), quadriceps muscle, and the tibiotarsal joint at 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks after intradermal inoculation in C3H and C3H-scid mice. In addition, RNA transcription was assessed for several prototype genes, including flaB, ospA, ospC, dbpA, arp, vlsE, fbp, oppA-2, and p37-42. Spirochete numbers were equivalent in C3H and C3H-scid mice at 1 or 2 weeks and then declined in C3H mice, but they continued to rise and then plateaued in C3H-scid mice. Gene transcription was likewise higher in C3H-scid mice than in C3H mice, particularly at 4 or more ...
Abstract The clinical and pathologic evolution of cardiac Lyme disease was evaluated in four-week-old susceptible C3H/He (C3H) and resistant C57Bl/6 (B6) mice on days 3, 6, 10, 15, 30, 60, and 90 after intradermal inoculation with Borrelia burgdorferi strain N40. Culture, DNA polymerase chain reaction, in situ nucleic acid hybridization, immunoperoxidase histochemical analysis, and silver stain were used to detect spirochetes. Spirochetes were first detected by culture on day 6 in two of four C3H mice. The hearts of all mice of both genotypes were culture positive by day 10 and infection persisted through day 90. The spirochetes had a predilection for connective tissue in the heart base, especially around the aorta, epicardium of the upper ventricles and atria, myocardial interstitium, and endocardium. Carditis was first detectable on day 10, reaching a maximum severity on day 15, then resolved, except for persistence of periaortic lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates through day 90 in C3H mice and through day

It has been demonstrated that pterostilbene inhibits reactive oxygen species production in neutrophils in vitro. However, little is known about its effects on neutrophils during inflammation in vivo. In this study, the effect of pterostilbene on neutrophil activity was investigated in experimental arthritis model. Lewis rats were injected by a single intradermal injection of heat-killed Mycobacterium butyricum in Freunds adjuvant to develop arthritis. Another group of arthritic animals received pterostilbene 30mg/kg, daily, p.o. The number and activity of neutrophils in blood were measured on a weekly basis during the whole experiment. Moreover, the total radical trapping potential in plasma was measured at the end of the experiment. In the pterostilbene treated arthritic group, the treatment significantly lowered the number of neutrophils in blood on days 14 and 21 without significant downregulation of neutrophil oxidative burst. Pterostilbene nonsignificantly increased total radical trapping ...
Improved microneedle arrays are provided having a sufficiently large separation distance between each of the individual microneedles to ensure penetration of the skin while having a sufficiently small separation distance to provide high transdermal transport rates. A very useful range of separation distances between microneedles is in the range of 100-300 microns, and more preferably in the range of 100-200 microns. The outer diameter and microneedle length is also very important, and in combination with the separation distance will be crucial as to whether or not the microneedles will actually penetrate the stratum corneum of skin. For circular microneedles, a useful outer diameter range is from 20-100 microns, and more preferably in the range of 20-50 microns. For circular microneedles that do not have sharp edges, a useful length for use with interstitial fluids is in the range of 50-200 microns, and more preferably in the range of 100-150 microns; for use with other biological fluids, a useful

Guinea pig maximisation test (defined exposure scheme) The sensitising potential of Bronopol (purity 100%) was tested in the guinea pig maximisation test. The study (Unilever Research Laboratory, 1976) followed no guideline as it was conducted in 1976; however the study was conducted according to the acknowledged method of Magnusson and Kligman (1969), which preceeded OECD 406. GLP was not compulsory at the time the study was conducted. The test concentrations selected for induction (intradermal injection and epicutaneous occlusive application) and challenge were chosen on the basis of the results of two preliminary tests (intradermal injection and topical application) conducted each with 4 female animals. The test concentrations for the main sensitisation test were: 0.02% in 0.9% saline for the first induction (intradermal injection), 1.5% in distilled water for the second induction (epicutaneous, occlusive application) and 0.4% in distilled water for challenge.
