Protein antigen from a childhood vaccine can help refocus the body's immune system against cancer

A University of Massachusetts Amherst team has demonstrated in theory that a protein antigen from a childhood vaccine can be delivered into the cells of a malignant tumor to refocus the body's immune system against the cancer, effectively halting it and preventing its recurrence.

RSV in seniors: Less common than COVID-19, but hits harder, CDC study reveals

In a recent CDC's MMWR study, researchers found that while respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections are less common than COVID-19 and influenza in Americans aged 60+ years, they result in much more severe clinical outcomes. This insight supports the CDC's recommendation for RSV vaccination in older adults, emphasizing its potential in preventing severe respiratory disease.

Breast milk microbiome changes after COVID-19 vaccination, linked to enhanced infant protection

Study explored the association between BNT162b2 vaccine-induced antibodies and the breast milk microbiome in 49 breastfeeding mothers, revealing that post-vaccination alterations in the microbiome were linked to humoral protection against SARS-CoV-2.

Next-gen intranasal vaccine takes on measles, mumps, and multiple COVID-19 variants in one shot

Researchers developed an intranasal trivalent measles-mumps-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine that provides robust protection against multiple coronavirus variants. Leveraging the established measles-mumps-rubella platform, this vaccine demonstrates broad and adaptable immune responses, especially against Delta and Omicron variants.

Antigenic cartography decodes the mysteries of SARS-CoV-2 variants and vaccines

Using antigenic cartography, researchers analyzed cross-reactivity patterns of SARS-CoV-2 variants and the effect of spike-protein changes on post-infection and vaccination immune responses. The study illuminated unique neutralization profiles and underscored the evolving defense mechanisms with repeated immunizations.

Novavax vaccine shows resilient defense against symptomatic COVID-19 despite Omicron challenge

Recent study assesses NVX-CoV2373 vaccine's effectiveness against Omicron variant. Findings show decreased efficacy over four months, but stable protection against symptomatic COVID-19.

8 Oct 2023

Protein recombinant vaccine NVX-CoV2373 confers protection during Omicron dominant period in Italy

The NVX-CoV2373 COVID-19 vaccine offers significant protection against symptomatic infections, but its effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 declines within four months, according to a study in JAMA Network Open using Italian data. However, its protection against symptomatic COVID-19 seems to remain stable during this period.

8 Oct 2023

Differences in immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 variants could inform future vaccine design

A person's immune response to variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, depends on their previous exposure - and differences in the focus of immune responses will help scientists understand how to optimize vaccines in the future to provide broad protection.

Pre-existing CMV immunity protects mothers and babies from transmission and birth defects

Researchers at Tulane University have shown for the first time that mothers are much less likely to transmit a common virus known to cause miscarriages and birth defects if they are exposed to the virus prior to becoming pregnant.

Why are most Americans skipping the COVID-19 booster?

A study in the journal Vaccine reveals that misinformation and concerns about side effects are leading reasons why over 80% of eligible Americans have skipped the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine booster. The research underscores the need for more public education about the vaccine's benefits in combating severe COVID-19 infections.
