季節性流感造成全球每年約290,000-650,000人的死亡。730Please respect copyright.PENANALlibExJIk3

流感病毒接近每年均會出現變種,基於現時並無統一疫苗對抗各品種,所以很多時候在翌年便要轉換對應的疫苗。730Please respect copyright.PENANANV6Jv5jLa1

(圖2)流感病毒外部、名為HA的部份,將主宰病毒能否進入人體細胞裡頭。730Please respect copyright.PENANAvQQurAbzSo

730Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3IASL4mb7
流感病毒的變異較常出現在頭部位置(Head),而現時疫苗的設計亦主要針對HA的頭部位置。730Please respect copyright.PENANAuFClr9P7SP
730Please respect copyright.PENANAs3tB2QFEuK
其目標是希望人們注射疫苗後,體內會產生對應HA頭部位置的抗體,阻止病毒進入人體細胞繼而作惡。730Please respect copyright.PENANAcvsdL4C5Gb

(圖3)另一方面來想,流感病毒變種就如不同顏色的花朵一樣。730Please respect copyright.PENANALt1N1Zm6PZ

730Please respect copyright.PENANAZBfmHwRqki
雖然花朵各有不同,但莖部位置則大同小異。730Please respect copyright.PENANALdlvU5Jbt1
730Please respect copyright.PENANAjtWrWfONWF
(圖4)基於Stalk位置(花朵莖部位置)的變異成數較細,現時科學家正研發針對Stalk位置的疫苗(Ref1),希望可以透過一款疫苗對抗多款流感變種。730Please respect copyright.PENANAIkSNWpP1tJ

這類型的疫苗現時已進入Phase1狀態,人體試驗找來了51名人士,注射疫苗後體內亦得出相應的大量抗體。730Please respect copyright.PENANAgSeRKK5A4R
730Please respect copyright.PENANAyP4iZbC0gR
而日後所進行的人體試驗,將會能夠獲取資料測量疫苗能否達到預防流感之效。730Please respect copyright.PENANAfQi6QtIJSF
730Please respect copyright.PENANAbJgITlZq8I
若安全性、效率等等均達到合理水平的話,將來不但之可以不用經常轉換疫苗款式,亦能大大減低疫苗與當下流感款式不吻合的機會,皆大歡喜。730Please respect copyright.PENANAfuf6MeFezp
