How have these challenges been overcome?

What will be an ideal response?


These challenges have been overcome by recognizing the need to activate CD4 TFH cells so that high-affinity, neutralizing IgG antibodies are made after exposure to encapsulated pathogens. Because CD4 TFH cells require peptide epitopes presented by MHC class II molecules, a new class of vaccine, a conjugate vaccine, was designed that enabled this goal to be achieved. By linking the bacterial polysaccharide covalently to a potent IgG-stimulating protein such as the tetanus or diphtheria toxoid, peptide epitopes become available for the activation of CD4 TFH cells.
