Intranasal immunization with a single dose of the fusion protein formulated with a combination adjuvant induces long-term protective immunity against respiratory syncytial virus

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common cause of respiratory tract infections in both children and elderly people. In this study we evaluated the short- and long-term protective efficacy of a single intranasal (IN) immunization with a RSV ...

Location matters in RSV protection

Cell Host & Microbe, 2022
In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Zohar et al., 2022 show that immunization of non-human primates with six different candidate respiratory syncytial virus vaccines resulted in distinct antibody profiles and variable levels of protection. Using a systems serology approach, they identified compartment-specific antibody-mediated correlates of ...
