The significant immune escape of pseudotyped SARS-CoV-2 variant Omicron
The emergence of Omicron/BA.1 has brought new challenges to fight against SARS-CoV-2. A large number of mutations in the Spike protein suggest that its susceptibility to immune protection elicited by the existing COVID-19 infection and vaccines may be ...

De Novo generation of escape Variant-specific CD8+ T-Cell responses following Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte escape in chronic Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Infection [PDF]
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) evades CD8+ T-cell responses through mutations within targeted epitopes, but little is known regarding its ability to generate de novo CD8+ T-cell responses to such mutants.

Preprint: Mutation Rate Evolution Drives Immune Escape In Mismatch Repair-Deficient Cancer
SUMMARY Mutation rate optimisation drives evolution and immune evasion of bacteria and lentiviral strains, including HIV. Whether evolving cancer lineages similarly adapt mutation rates to increase tumour cell fitness is unknown.

Extracellular vesicles in pancreatic cancer immune escape: Emerging roles and mechanisms
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the most lethal malignancy worldwide due to its delayed diagnosis and limited treatment options. Despite great progress in clinical trials of immunotherapies for various cancers, their effectiveness in PC is very low, indicating

Molecular Mechanism of Tumor Cell Immune Escape Mediated by CD24/Siglec-10
Tumor immune escape is an important part of tumorigenesis and development. Tumor cells can develop a variety of immunosuppressive mechanisms to combat tumor immunity.

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