Broadly neutralizing antibody induction by non-stabilized SARS-CoV-2 Spike mRNA vaccination in nonhuman primates

Non-stabilized SARS-CoV-2 Spike mRNA vaccination in macaques induces B cell lineages targeting conserved epitopes on Omicron variants or cross-neutralizing epitopes on Sarbecoviruses.

Vaccine induction of CD4-mimicking broadly neutralizing antibody precursors in macaques

This study shows that vaccinating macaques with a CD4bs-targeting immunogen elicits neutralizing bnAb precursors with structural features of CD4-mimicking antibodies.

Engineered Immunogens to Elicit Antibodies Against Conserved Coronavirus Epitopes

This study designs engineered immunogens targeting conserved coronavirus epitopes to elicit broad-spectrum antibodies, showing protection in mice against live virus challenge.

Mutation-Guided Vaccine Design: A Strategy for Developing Boosting Immunogens for HIV Broadly Neutralizing Antibody Induction

The paper demonstrates a mutation-guided vaccine strategy that induces HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies in mice by selecting for rare B cell lineage mutations.

Humanized antibody potently neutralizes all SARS-CoV-2 variants by a novel mechanism

The paper describes a humanized antibody, SP1-77, that neutralizes all SARS-CoV-2 variants by blocking membrane fusion instead of ACE2 receptor binding.

Cryo-EM structures of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2 spike

This study determines cryo-EM structures of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2 spike and compares them to BA.1, revealing structural changes and immune evasion mechanisms.

Breadth of SARS-CoV-2 Neutralization and Protection Induced by a Nanoparticle Vaccine

This study shows a nanoparticle vaccine induces broad neutralizing antibodies against multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants and protects non-human primates and mice from viral challenges.

Lipid nanoparticle encapsulated nucleoside-modified mRNA vaccines elicit polyfunctional HIV-1 antibodies comparable to proteins in nonhuman primates

This study compares the immunogenicity of mRNA-LNP vaccines to protein vaccines in nonhuman primates, finding comparable or superior HIV-1 antibody responses.

Resource reallocation in engineered Escherichia coli strains with reduced genomes

This study examines the effects of genome reduction in E. coli on proteome expression and stability of a biosynthetic pathway for pigment production, finding that proteome fraction elimination impacts fitness and bioproduction balance.

An Epitope-based Malaria Vaccine Targeting the Junctional Domain of Circumsporozoite Protein

This paper develops a malaria vaccine targeting the CIS43 epitope on CSP using Qβ VLPs, showing high immunogenicity and partial protection in mice and macaques.

Circulating levels of epirubicin cause endothelial senescence while compromising metabolic activity and vascular function

This study shows that low doses of epirubicin cause endothelial senescence, reduced metabolic activity, and impaired vascular function in both cell and animal models.
