The effect of post-traumatic stress syndrome on the outcome of influenza vaccination
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of psychological stress on the immune response to influenza vaccination in war related PTSD patients (n=32). Samples were obtained before and 14 days after vaccination (Agrippal, Chiron, Italy) from patients and control subjects during 2003/2004 winter sason. Inhibition of hemagglutination (IH) assay was used for detection of specific antiviral antibodies titres in sera for all viral strains contained in the vaccine. In addition influenza-specific CD8+ T-cells are determinated by MHC class I tetramer technology on a flow cytometer. The response to the vaccine was observed in 80% individuals after vaccinatiuon. Our results indicate that PTSD patients respond to the influenza vaccination similarly to health individuals.
