Do the injected microorganisms have the same antigens as the live pathogen?

The injected microorganisms in a vaccine may have the same antigens as the live pathogen, but they are weakened or killed to prevent disease. This allows the immune system to recognize and build immunity against these antigens without causing illness.


What is the name for the way of preventing diseases like smallpox?

Vaccination is the method used to prevent diseases like smallpox by introducing a weakened or killed form of the pathogen into the body to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against it.


Does vaccines interfere with the immune system?

Vaccine is a killed (attenuated) pathogen preparation. When it is administrated, out body recognize them still as a pathogen (because their chemical body still there, just they cant infect) and start making antibodies against them. One part of immune cells make the memory cells, to defend these pathogens if this pathogenic infection occurs again.


Once the body encounters a pathogen and destroys it what is created?

Once the body activated, killer T cells it recognize pathogen and destroy them. In response that will create memory B cells and T cells specific to a certain pathogen, so if it ever came back it will be killed immediately.


What kills cells infected with a pathogen?

Cells infected with a pathogen can be killed by the immune system through mechanisms such as releasing toxic chemicals, inducing programmed cell death (apoptosis), or activating immune cells like T cells and natural killer cells to target and destroy the infected cells.

What is an artificial or weakened antigen called?

An artificial or weakened antigen is commonly referred to as a "vaccine." Vaccines are designed to stimulate the immune system by introducing a harmless form or component of a pathogen, which can be either inactivated (killed) or attenuated (weakened). This helps the immune system recognize and mount a defense against the actual pathogen if encountered in the future, thereby providing immunity.

What is the differences between vaccine and generic drug?

GENERIC DRUG, a drug sold or prescribed under the nonproprietary name of its active ingredients or under a generally descriptive name rather than under a brand or trade name. The name of the active ingredient is established by a government or international body, and is typically the U.S. Adopted Name, British Approved Name, or International Nonproprietary Name while VACCINE is A preparation of a weakened or killed pathogen, such as a bacterium or virus, or of a portion of the pathogen's structure that upon administration stimulates antibody production or cellular immunity against the pathogen but is incapable of causing severe infection.

What Substance is prepared from killed or weakened microorganisms?

A vaccine is prepared from killed or weakened microorganisms to stimulate an immune response in the body so it can recognize and defend against the actual infectious agent if exposed in the future.

What are solutions of killed or weakened viruses?

One such example would be a vaccine for viral illnesses. They can be made from attenuated (weakened) viruses or from inactivated viruses or pieces of them.
