Gaining Biological Insights through Supervised Data Visualization

The paper introduces RF-PHATE, a supervised data visualization method that integrates expert knowledge to enhance interpretation of complex biological data.

Rapid vaccine induction of macaque HIV-1 V2 Apex broadly neutralizing antibodies with immunogenetic signatures that are potentially translatable to humans

This study shows that vaccination of macaques with an Env-ferritin nanoparticle rapidly elicits V2-apex broadly neutralizing antibodies with immunogenetic features that may be applicable to humans.

Shared Maturation Pathways of HIV-1 Envelope-reactive V3-glycan bnAb Lineages in Human and Rhesus Macaque

The paper identifies shared maturation pathways of V3-glycan broadly neutralizing antibody lineages in humans and rhesus macaques, revealing convergent mutations and evolution patterns.

The asymmetric opening of HIV-1 Env by a potent CD4 mimetic enables anti-coreceptor binding site antibodies to mediate ADCC

This study shows that the CD4 mimetic CJF-III-288 enables anti-CoRBS antibodies to mediate ADCC by stabilizing an asymmetric open Env conformation.

Consistent Induction of Broadly Neutralizing HIV Antibodies by a Novel Two-Step Mechanism Informs Immunogen Design

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

Env-antibody coevolution identifies B cell priming as the principal bottleneck to HIV-1 V2 apex broadly neutralizing antibody development

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

CD4 downregulation precedes Env expression and protects HIV-1-infected cells from ADCC mediated by non-neutralizing antibodies

The paper shows CD4 downregulation precedes Env expression in HIV-1-infected cells, making them resistant to non-neutralizing antibody-mediated ADCC.

The combination of three CD4-induced antibodies targeting highly conserved Env regions with a small CD4-mimetic achieves potent ADCC activity

This paper combines three CD4-induced antibodies with a CD4-mimetic to achieve potent ADCC activity against HIV-1-infected cells.
