27 B + T memory vs protection Quicker + better pb, pt dependent AG independent High Ab titer AG dependent plasmocytes <10d bystander act. not sufficient Co-evolutionary role (matern. Ab)

28 Memory versus protection

29 Antibody Memory after immunization with VSV a) neutralizing antibodies b) ELISA VSV-IND neutralizing IgG (-40 log 2 ) VSV-NP binding IgG (-10 log 3 ) days after immunization days after immunization

IgG(-40log2) days after transfer VSV-NP (ELISA) IgG(-10log3) LCMV-WE IgG(-10log3)

32 Neutral. Ab natural Ab Ag Ag-spleen high affinity in germline protection: >10 8 l/mol, >1 µg/ml (T help) maternal Ab B cells not tolerant? monomer / multimer (crosslinking crosslinking) protection: antigen +T dependent

33 Manipulation of B response Proctective AG site (serotype not shared) Shared epitopes not protective Live vs protein dose epdemiology (Sabin) AG-dependence of Ab titer vs kinetics and cytopathogenicity of V
