Project description:RNAseq was carried out to identify the transcriptomic changes that occur in healthy adult volunteers given either placebo or metformin from 3-days before to 3-days after live-attenuated YF-17D vaccination. Whole blood was collected at baseline (before placebo/metformin therapy), before YF-17D vaccination, Day 1, Day 3, Day 7 and Day 10 post YF-17D vaccination for RNAseq.
Project description:Mechanisms of poor responses to vaccines remain unknown. Yellow fever-naïve adults were vaccinated with a yellow fever vaccine (YF-17D, Stamaril). Transcriptomic profilling of blood collected pre-vaccination and post-vaccination (day 3, 7, 14 and 84) was performed in order to identify candidate biomarkers of antibody response to the vaccine.
