Molecular Lipopolysaccharide Di-Vaccine Protects from Shiga-Toxin Producing Epidemic Strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and O104:H4

open access: yesVaccines, 2022
Background: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 and O104:H4 strains are important causative agents of food-borne diseases such as hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic–uremic syndrome, which is the leading cause of kidney failure and death ...

Neutralizing antiviral antibody responses

open access: yes, 2001
Neutralizing antibodies are evolutionarily important effectors of immunity against viruses. Their evaluation has revealed a number of basic insights into specificity, rules of reactivity (tolerance), and memory—namely, (1) Specificity of neutralizing antibodies is defined by their capacity to distinguish between virus serotypes; (2) B cell reactivity ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Impact of Low-Dose Methotrexate–Adalimumab Combination Therapy on the Antibody Response Induced by the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine: Case of an Elderly Patient with Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are treated with drugs that may impact their immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. We describe here the anti-Spike (anti-S) IgG and neutralizing antibody responses induced by the mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in ...

Selection of neutralizing antibody escape mutants with type A influenza virus HA-specific polyclonal antisera: possible significance for antigenic drift [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Ten antisera were produced in rabbits by two or three intravenous injections of inactivated whole influenza type A virions. All contained haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) antibody directed predominantly to an epitope in antigenic site B and, in addition,

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Conservation implications of avian malaria exposure for African penguins during rehabilitation

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2017
The African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) is the only penguin species that breeds on the African continent and it is currently classified as endangered. Its conservation is assisted by the Southern African Foundation for the Conservation of Coastal Birds

Waning of IgG, Total and Neutralizing Antibodies 6 Months Post-Vaccination with BNT162b2 in Healthcare Workers

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Data about the long-term duration of antibodies after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination are still scarce and are important to design vaccination strategies. In this study, 231 healthcare professionals received the two-dose regimen of BNT162b2.

Evidence for the stress-linked immunocompetence handicap hypothesis in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Secondary sexual traits that develop under the action of testosterone, such as masculine human male facial characteristics, have been proposed to signal the strength of the immune system due to the sex hormone's immunosuppressive action.
