Evolution of cross-neutralizing antibody specificities to the CD4-BS and the carbohydrate cloak of the HIV Env in an HIV-1-infected subject. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Broadly neutralizing antibodies are considered an important part of a successful HIV vaccine. A better understanding of the factors underlying their development during infection and of the epitopes they target is needed to elicit similar antibody ...

SnapShot: Broadly Neutralizing Antibodies

open access: yesCell, 2013
Durably elicited by live attenuated virus, less durably by inactivated virusConserved bnAb epitopes:1) Ep1 (res. 380–400) 2) Ep2 (res. 190–200)3) Ep3 (res. 571–579)Despite the extensive variability of measles virus, nAb responses to vaccination are broad becausethe conserved epitopes are immunoprominent.May relate to overlap of the receptor-binding ...

Hepatitis C virus evasion mechanisms from neutralizing antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) represents a major public health problem, affecting 3% of the world’s population. The majority of infected individuals develop chronic hepatitis, which can progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection may elicit neutralizing antibodies targeting epitopes conserved in all viral genotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) cross-neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies, directed against conserved epitopes on surface E2 glycoprotein, are central tools for understanding virus-host interplay, and for planning strategies for prevention and ...

Structural basis for germline antibody recognition of HIV-1 immunogens

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Efforts to elicit broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) against HIV-1 require understanding germline bNAb recognition of HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env).

Human monoclonal antibodies to a novel cluster of conformational epitopes on HCV E2 with resistance to neutralization escape in a genotype 2a isolate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The majority of broadly neutralizing antibodies to hepatitis C virus (HCV) are against conformational epitopes on the E2 glycoprotein. Many of them recognize overlapping epitopes in a cluster, designated as antigenic domain B, that contains residues G530

Tackling influenza with broadly neutralizing antibodies

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2017
Monoclonal antibodies have revolutionized the treatment of several human diseases, including cancer, autoimmunity and inflammatory conditions and represent a new frontier for the treatment of infectious diseases. In the last decade, new methods have allowed the efficient interrogation of the human antibody repertoire from influenza immune individuals ...

HIV vaccine development and broadly neutralizing antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, Medicine, and Public Health, 2015
Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1)infects about 35 million people worldwide[1]. There is no vaccine in current clinicaluse. Although available drug treatmentsare generally effective in controlling infec-tion, they are not curative, can cause signifi-cant side effects and are unable to preventcomorbidities such as cardiovascular dis-easeand cancers ...

In Vivo Emergence of HIV-1 Highly Sensitive to Neutralizing Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The rapid and continual viral escape from neutralizing antibodies is well documented in HIV-1 infection. Here we report in vivo emergence of viruses with heightened sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies, sometimes paralleling the development

HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein Cell Surface Localization Is Associated with Antibody-Induced Internalization

open access: yesViruses, 2021
To minimize immune responses against infected cells, HIV-1 has evolved different mechanisms to limit the surface expression of its envelope glycoproteins (Env).
