The paper shows that early clonal dominance in B-cell precursors after vaccination predicts the breadth of HIV-neutralizing antibodies in rhesus macaques.

Epitope-focused S2 stem-helix nanoparticle immunogens elicit protective broadly neutralizing antibodies against diverse betacoronaviruses in non-human primates, establishing a framework for pan-betacoronavirus vaccines.

This paper describes the directed evolution of an antibody to enhance its binding affinity for MERS-CoV, resulting in cross-neutralization against multiple betacoronaviruses.

This study shows that a germline-targeting HIV immunogen induces cross-neutralizing antibodies in outbred macaques by priming V2-apex bnAb B cell precursors.

This study vaccinates nonhuman primates with SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV spike proteins to elicit cross-reactive antibodies that neutralize both sarbecoviruses and merbecoviruses.

The paper designs native-like HIV Env single-chain trimers (SCTs) that are stable, immunogenic, and compatible with vaccine delivery methods.

This study shows that B cells in hepatitis C patients retain dysregulated transcriptional profiles after cure, with sustained TNF signaling driving chronic inflammation and loss of protective memory.

This study shows a novel two-step mechanism for inducing broadly neutralizing HIV antibodies in macaques using a modified SHIV, informing vaccine design.

This study isolates and characterizes V2 apex-directed neutralizing antibodies from SHIV-infected macaques, revealing structural and genetic features that enable broad neutralization.

This study shows that a single immunization with a germline-targeting trimer can induce broad HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies in a rhesus macaque bnAb mouse model.

The paper identifies B cell priming as the main obstacle to developing HIV-1 V2 apex broadly neutralizing antibodies in SHIV-infected macaques.

This study shows that the S2-targeting antibody CC40.8 reduces SARS-CoV-2 viral loads and lower airway inflammation in rhesus macaques, supporting its potential as a broad coronavirus vaccine strategy.

This study immunized cows with HIV Env trimers to generate broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the V2-apex, revealing ultralong CDRH3 antibodies outcompete shorter ones in the response.
