Influenza Vaccine-Induced Antibody Responses Are Not Impaired by Frailty in the Community-Dwelling Elderly With Natural Influenza Exposure

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Background: Elderly adults over 65 years of age are recommended to receive seasonal influenza vaccination as they are at a higher risk of infection and its complications than the younger community.

The antibody response in Legionnaires' disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hygiene, 1979
summaryFrom 22 patients with Legionnaires' disease, 86 sera were examined for specific serotype 1 IgM and IgG antibodies by the indirect immunofluorescence technique.No antibody was detectable until 8 days or more from the onset of symptoms. When produced the amount was widely variable and remained detectable for periods from less than 34 days to more ...

Noninfectious retrovirus particles drive the APOBEC3/Rfv3 dependent neutralizing antibody response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Members of the APOBEC3 family of deoxycytidine deaminases counteract a broad range of retroviruses in vitro through an indirect mechanism that requires virion incorporation and inhibition of reverse transcription and/or hypermutation of minus strand ...

Immunogenicity and Immunodominance in Antibody Responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A large number of vaccines exist that control many of the most important infectious diseases. Despite these successes, there remain many pathogens without effective prophylactic vaccines. Notwithstanding strong difference in the biology of these infectious agents, there exist common problems in vaccine design.

Intrathecal B-cell activation in LGI1 antibody encephalitis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
ObjectiveTo study intrathecal B-cell activity in leucine-rich, glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) antibody encephalitis. In patients with LGI1 antibodies, the lack of CSF lymphocytosis or oligoclonal bands and serum-predominant LGI1 antibodies suggests a ...

Primary antibody response after influenza virus infection is first dominated by low-mutated HA-stem antibodies followed by higher-mutated HA-head antibodies

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Several studies have shown that the first encounter with influenza virus shapes the immune response to future infections or vaccinations. However, a detailed analysis of the primary antibody response is lacking as this is difficult to study in humans. It

Baseline anti-NS4a antibodies in combination with on-treatment quantitative HCV-RNA reliably identifies nonresponders to pegylated interferon-ribavirin combination therapy after 4 weeks of treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Early detection of nonresponders to hepatitis C therapy limits unnecessary exposure to treatment and its side-effects. A recent algorithm combining baseline anti-NS4a antibodies and on-treatment quantitative PCR identified nonresponders to a ...
