摘要: O-specific polysaccharide conjugates of shigellae were safe and immunogenic in young adults, a Shigella sonnei conjugate conferred protection [1-3]. Shigellosis is primarily disease children; therefore, the safety immunogenicity S. flexneri 2a studied 4- to 7-year-old children. Local systemic reactions minimal. The first injection both elicited significant rises geometric mean levels serum IgG only homologous lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (S. sonnei, 0.32-8.25 ELISA units [EU]; 2a, 1.15-20.5 EU; P <.0001). Revaccination at 6 weeks induced booster response LPS (20.5-30.5 EU, =.003). Six months later, anti-LPS for groups higher than prevaccination (P<.0001). Similar, but lesser, observed IgM IgA anti-LPS. investigational children merit evaluation their efficacy.
