Booster mRNA Vaccination Prevents Breakthrough Severe COVID-19 Infections. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the humoral immune response following administration of a BNT162b2 mRNA COVID‐19 booster dose and to evaluate its association with the development of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection after vaccination. Between July 2021 and February 2022, serum samples were collected from 313 individuals 28 days after receiving a COVID‐19 ...

A Modular Design of a Cholera Toxin B Subunit-Scaffolded Sub-Virion Nanoparticle Vaccine Against West Nile Virus. [PDF]
A recombinant West Nile virus (WNV) subunit vaccine was developed by displaying ED3 on a CTB scaffold. The fusion protein formed soluble nanoparticles in E. coli, eliciting strong, balanced, and specific neutralizing antibodies without cross‐reactivity, offering a safe, scalable subunit vaccine platform.
