Recombinant subunit vaccines use attenuated virus or bacterium to introduce microbial DNA to cells of the body. ... The protein components that induce immune response are synthesis peptides or antigens expressed in eukaryotic or prokaryotic expression system (e.g., E. coli, yeast) using recombinant protein expression technologies. 2, record 1, English, - recombinant%20subunit%20vaccine

Vaccins sous-unitaires recombinants. Plusieurs vaccins sont actuellement produits dans des œufs de poule, mais des technologies de recombinaison de l'ADN ont été mises au point pour exprimer les protéines de vaccin par des types de cellule de remplacement dans des environnements contrôlés (cellules de mammifère, d'insecte, de plante, de levures). Ces techniques offrent de bonnes pistes pour la production rapide à grande échelle d'antigènes destinés à être utilisés dans les vaccins. 4, record 1, French, - vaccin%20sous%2Dunitaire%20recombinant

Jusqu'en automne 2000, il existait 3 types de vaccins influenza : un vaccin à virus fragmenté (type Fluarix), un vaccin à sous-unités (type Influvac), composé d'antigènes influenza purifiés, dont l'hémagglutinine (prédominant) et la neuraminidase. 2, record 2, French, - vaccin%20sous%2Dunitaire

En las vacunas subunitarias se han removido los antígenos internos, dejando sólo los antígenos de superficie (hemaglutininas y neuroaminidasas). La inmunogenicidad es menor y las reacciones locales y sistémicas son similares a las de virus fragmentados. 2, record 2, Spanish, - vacuna%20de%20subunidad
