High prevalence of antibodies to human herpesvirus 8 in relatives of patients with classic Kaposi's sarcoma from Sardinia [PDF]

, 1998
A survey for antibodies to a recombinant small viral capsid antigen (sVCA) of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV‐8) was conducted in Sardinia, one of the world's highest incidence areas for classic Kaposi's sarcoma (KS). Prevalence of antibodies to HHV‐8 sVCA

Iptacopan for Immune Thrombocytopenia and Cold Agglutinin Disease: A Global Phase 2 Basket Clinical Trial

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 242-254, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Iptacopan is a first‐in‐class, oral, selective inhibitor of complement factor B that has demonstrated positive efficacy across several complement‐driven diseases. Here we evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan monotherapy in adult patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and primary cold agglutinin disease (CAD). We performed

Antibody responses to nasopharyngeal carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae in adults: A longitudinal household study [PDF]

, 2005
Background. Natural immunity to Streptococcus pneumoniae is thought to be induced by exposure to S. pneumoniae or cross-reactive antigens. No longitudinal studies of carriage of and immune responses to S.

Human Milk Bioactive Compounds and Allergic‐ and Infectious‐Related Infant Outcomes: A Systematic Review

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 4, 26 February 2026.
Human milk bioactive compounds influence infant immune development by reducing infection risk and modulating allergy‐related outcomes. This systematic review highlights associations between HMOs, fatty acids, cytokines, and protective or adverse immune responses in early life.

Common childhood vaccines do not elicit a cross-reactive antibody response against SARS-CoV-2.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Anecdotal evidence showed a negative correlation between Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination and incidence of COVID-19. Incidence of the disease in children is much lower than in adults.

Longitudinal analyses of immune responses to Plasmodium falciparum derived peptides corresponding to novel blood stage antigens in coastal Kenya.

, 2008
We have recently described 95 predicted alpha-helical coiled-coil peptides derived from putative Plasmodium falciparum erythrocytic stage proteins. Seventy peptides recognized with the highest level of prevalence by sera from three endemic areas were ...

Alterations of the oral microbiome in patients reinfected with SARS‐CoV‐2 omicron variants

VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
We studied the oral microbiome (the community of microbes in the mouth) in people who were reinfected with the omicron variant of SARS‐CoV‐2 and compared it with healthy individuals and other respiratory illness groups. By sequencing tongue‐coating samples from large cohorts, we identified microbial shifts linked to Omicron reinfection and built a ...
