Robust T and B cell activation is associated with rapid clearance of infectious SARS-CoV-2

The paper identifies immune cell activation patterns associated with rapid clearance of infectious SARS-CoV-2 in both unvaccinated and vaccinated individuals.

The effect of circulating neutralizing antibodies on the replication of SARS-CoV-2 variants following post-vaccination infections.

This study examines how pre-existing neutralizing antibodies affect viral shedding in post-vaccination SARS-CoV-2 infections, finding that higher titers reduce viral load and duration but are less effective against Omicron variants.

Antiviral adaptive immunity and tolerance in the mosquito Aedes aegyti

The paper characterizes an antiviral immunity pathway in mosquitoes that uses endogenous viral elements for long-term protection and self-nonself discrimination.

The diversity, structure and function of heritable adaptive immunity sequences in the Aedes aegypti genome

The paper characterizes the genomic structure and function of endogenous viral elements (EVEs) in the Aedes aegypti Aag2 cell line using long-read sequencing, revealing their role in antiviral immunity.
