Membrane-bound BG505 MD39.3 Env trimer delivered as mRNA-LNP reduced base-directed antibody responses in rabbits and macaques and elicited neutralizing antibodies, with memory B cell responses documented in macaques.

This study evaluates the dose-dependent effects of the SMNP adjuvant on HIV Env-specific immune responses in non-human primates, showing increased memory T and B cell responses and neutralizing antibodies at higher doses.

This study compares the immune response in non-human primates between alum and SMNP adjuvants, finding SMNP induces stronger humoral responses and enhanced lymph node activation.

The paper analyzes B cell responses to a germline-targeting immunogen in human Ig loci transgenic mice, finding diverse non-VRC01-class B cells and competitor B cells recognizing epitopes near the VRC01 epitope.
