Cross-protective antibodies against common endemic respiratory viruses

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), and human parainfluenza virus types one (HPIV1) and three (HPIV3) can cause severe disease and death in immunocompromised patients, the elderly, and those with underlying lung disease.

Meta-analysis of HIV-1 vaccine elicited mucosal antibodies in humans

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2021
We studied mucosal immune responses in six HIV-1 vaccine trials investigating different envelope (Env)-containing immunogens. Regimens were classified into four categories: DNA/vector, DNA/vector plus protein, protein alone, and vector alone. We measured

Anti-tumor activity of a T-helper 1 multiantigen vaccine in a murine model of prostate cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Prostate cancer is one of the few malignancies that includes vaccination as a treatment modality. Elements of an effective cancer vaccine should include the ability to elicit a Type I T-cell response and target multiple antigenic proteins expressed early

Could widespread use of antiviral treatment curb the COVID-19 pandemic? A modeling study

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Despite the development of safe and effective vaccines, effective treatments for COVID-19 disease are still urgently needed. Several antiviral drugs have shown to be effective in reducing progression of COVID-19 disease. Methods In the present

Tumor-associated autoantibodies from mouse breast cancer models are found in serum of breast cancer patients

open access: yesnpj Breast Cancer, 2021
B cell responses to tumor antigens occur early in breast tumors and may identify immunogenic drivers of tumorigenesis. Sixty-two candidate antigens were identified prior to palpable tumor development in TgMMTV-neu and C3(1)Tag transgenic mouse mammary ...

Optimizing vaccine allocation for COVID-19 vaccines shows the potential role of single-dose vaccination

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Most COVID-19 vaccines require two doses but a single dose provides partial protection, so it is unclear how best to prioritize vaccine distribution in the context of limited supply.

COVID-19 vaccines that reduce symptoms but do not block infection need higher coverage and faster rollout to achieve population impact

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Trial results for two COVID-19 vaccines suggest at least 90% efficacy against symptomatic disease (VEDIS). It remains unknown whether this efficacy is mediated by lowering SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility (VESUSC) or development of symptoms after ...

T Cell Subsets in the Germinal Center: Lessons from the Macaque Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Germinal centers (GCs) are organized lymphoid tissue microstructures where B cells proliferate and differentiate into memory B cells and plasma cells. A few distinctive subsets of highly specialized T cells gain access to the GCs by expressing the B cell

Methods to Measure Antibody Neutralization of Live Human Coronavirus OC43

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The human Betacoronavirus OC43 is a common cause of respiratory viral infections in adults and children. Lung infections with OC43 are associated with mortality, especially in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.

In vivo dynamics of AAV-mediated gene delivery to sensory neurons of the trigeminal ganglia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The ability to genetically manipulate trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons would be useful in the study of the craniofacial nervous system and latent alphaherpesvirus infections.
