    SARS-CoV2 variant-specific replicating RNA vaccines protect from disease following challenge with heterologous variants of concern

    David W Hawman, Kimberly Meade-White ... Jesse H Erasmus
    A replicating RNA vaccine platform generated significant immunity against SARS-CoV2 in mice and hamsters, and can be updated to target variants of concern.

    A chemically induced attenuated strain of Candida albicans generates robust protective immune responses and prevents systemic candidiasis development

    Swagata Bose, Satya Ranjan Sahu ... Narottam Acharya
    A detailed characterizations of EDTA-treated Candida albicans cells both in vitro and pre-clinical models led to discovery of a potential live whole-cell vaccine against fungal infections.

    Differences in the immune response elicited by two immunization schedules with an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in a randomized phase 3 clinical trial

    Nicolás MS Gálvez, Gaspar A Pacheco ... Alexis M Kalergis
    The humoral and cellular immune responses were evaluated for two immunization schedules for the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, CoronaVac, with two doses separated by 2 or 4 weeks, showing that these responses are mostly similar, with differences in neutralization capacities.

    Reduced antibody cross-reactivity following infection with B.1.1.7 than with parental SARS-CoV-2 strains

    Nikhil Faulkner, Kevin W Ng ... George Kassiotis
    Heterotypic immunity, the ability of immunity induced by one SARS-CoV-2 variant to protect against another, is asymmetric, with the UK (B.1.1.7) variant, eliciting weaker heterotypic immunity than other variants.

    SARS-CoV-2 host-shutoff impacts innate NK cell functions, but antibody-dependent NK activity is strongly activated through non-spike antibodies

    Ceri Alan Fielding, Pragati Sabberwal ... Richard J Stanton
    SARS-CoV-2 host-shutoff inhibits innate NK surveillance by suppressing activating ligands, however ADCC provides a potent NK stimulus that is mediated by antibodies targeting Nucleocapsid, ORF3a, and Membrane, with those targeting Spike being significantly weaker.

    Structure of the malaria vaccine candidate antigen CyRPA and its complex with a parasite invasion inhibitory antibody

    Paola Favuzza, Elena Guffart ... Markus G Rudolph
    The structure of the promising malaria blood-stage vaccine candidate antigen PfCyRPA and the characterization of a protective epitope are facilitating research on its essential role in parasite invasion, and will guide future epitope-focused vaccine design.

    A mosaic-type trimeric RBD-based COVID-19 vaccine candidate induces potent neutralization against Omicron and other SARS-CoV-2 variants

    Jing Zhang, Zi Bo Han ... Qi Ming Li
    Animal experiments show that the mosaic-type immunogen integrating key mutations from Omicron and other circulating variants elicits broad neutralization against divergent SARS-CoV-2 strains.

    High-resolution mapping of the neutralizing and binding specificities of polyclonal sera post-HIV Env trimer vaccination

    Adam S Dingens, Payal Pratap ... Jesse D Bloom
    HIV vaccine-induced binding and neutralizing antibody epitope specificities were mapped at high resolution directly from polyclonal sera, overcoming shortcomings in traditional serum mapping approaches and enabling highly detailed vaccine design.

    mRNA vaccination in people over 80 years of age induces strong humoral immune responses against SARS-CoV-2 with cross neutralization of P.1 Brazilian variant

    Helen Parry, Gokhan Tut ... Paul Moss
    The BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine is highly effective at generating immune responses in people over the age of 80 years and provides good cross neutralization of the P.1 gamma variant of concern.

    Earliest infections predict the age distribution of seasonal influenza A cases

    Philip Arevalo, Huong Q McLean ... Sarah Cobey
    First influenza infections determine susceptibility to future seasonal influenza infection throughout life, and may impact vaccine effectiveness.
