Human herpesviruses comprise the alpha, beta, and gamma subfamilies and are a widely prevalent group of DNA-enveloped viruses capable of establishing lifelong latent infections in humans and causing ...

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) against HIV-1 are promising components of long-acting antiretroviral treatment (ART) due to their prolonged activity and potential for recruiting additional ...

A new nanodisc breakthrough lets scientists see viruses more realistically, revealing hidden clues that could lead to better ...

Varicella (chickenpox) and herpes zoster (HZ) are distinct clinical manifestations caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), progressing from primary infection and viral reactivation, respectively.

An antibody cocktail generated in humanized mice protected hamsters from lethal doses of Nipah virus, offering a new ...

Antibodies are immune proteins that our bodies produce to help fight off infection. Where they recognize and bind a pathogen — and how — can give important clues to the microbe’s vulnerabilities. Fred ...

Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are specialized proteins produced by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign invaders, such as viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. They are ...

A recent study published in the journal Nature Communications observed antibody breadth and effector functions as important immune correlates that can be used to develop universal influenza vaccines.

Scientists at the Jackson Laboratory (JAX) have developed an antibody-based therapy against influenza A virus (IAV), which they suggest could change the way the world fights flu, one of the deadliest ...
