In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers evaluated the use of receptor decoys for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) based on soluble forms of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) for immunological prophylaxis and management of…
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers in the United Kingdom developed a pooled enzyme-linked immunosorbent (ELISA) assay using mpox (MPX) virus (MPXV) antigens and vaccinia virus (VACV) antigens. They also assessed humoral responses to and…
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers explored the effects of prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and vaccination on SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection. Study: The effect of previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 vaccination…
A new analysis by Cedars-Sinai investigators is furthering the scientific community’s understanding of COVID-19 immunity by showing that similar levels of COVID-19 antibodies are reached over an extended period of time in different population groups. Early data on COVID-19 vaccines…
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers discovered that the spike protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is susceptible to cleavage at the disulfide bonds. They also found that the vulnerability to reductive…
Although the pathology of the respiratory system is the main impact of the COVID-19 disease, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, many of the patients manifest important neurological symptoms, such as loss of smell (anosmia), headaches, malaise, cognitive loss, epilepsy, ataxia…
In a recent study posted to the medRxiv* preprint server, researchers at Oregon Health & Science University assessed the impact of the duration between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and vaccination on immunity against infection. As the spread of severe…
In a recent article published in Science Translational Medicine, researchers developed a novel pan-vaccine antigen (Span)-based subunit vaccine against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Using a mouse model, they also demonstrated that this vaccine formulation conferred protection against multiple clades of…
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* server, researchers investigated the reasons for the rapid advent of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) XBB.1.5, a sublineage of the Omicron recombinant mutant XBB in the United States of America…
With the spread of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) around the world, more and more variants emerged, mainly after vaccines were introduced. The Omicron variant rapidly developed several subvariants and jumped to dominance, dislodging the preceding Delta variant from that position.…
