Anti-malaria antibody engineering broadens recognition motifs and reveals new homotypic interactions that enhance protective breadth
Abstract The monoclonal antibody L9 mediates high-level protection against malaria in children for up to 6 months in Africa. L9 preferentially binds with high affinity to a triplicate of NVDP-minor repeats on the P. falciparum circumsporozoite protein (PfCSP). Here, we sought to improve the affinity of L9 to enhance protection against rare strains with two spatially separated minor repeats or a single minor repeat.
Durable immunity to SARS-CoV-2 in both lower and upper airways achieved with a gorilla adenovirus (GRAd) S-2P vaccine in non-human primates
Abstract SARS-CoV-2 continues to pose a global threat, and current vaccines, while effective against severe illness, fall short in preventing transmission. To address this challenge, there's a need for vaccines that induce mucosal immunity and can rapidly control the virus.
Mucosal Adenoviral-vectored Vaccine Boosting Durably Prevents XBB.1.16 Infection in Nonhuman Primates
Abstract Waning immunity and continued virus evolution have limited the durability of protection from symptomatic infection mediated by intramuscularly (IM)-delivered mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 although protection from severe disease remains high. Mucosal vaccination has been proposed as a strategy to increase protection at the site of SARS-CoV-2 infection by enhancing airway immunity, potentially reducing rates of infection and transmission.
