Immunoglobulin A (IgA) plays a key role in defending mucosal surfaces against attack by
infectious microorganisms. Such sites present a major site of susceptibility due to their vast …

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the most abundant antibody class present at mucosal surfaces.
The production of IgA exceeds the production of all other antibodies combined, supporting …

Humoral immune responses are typically characterized by primary IgM antibody responses
followed by secondary antibody responses associated with immune memory and composed …

Importance Although several studies have provided information on short-term clinical
outcomes in children with perinatal exposure to SARS-CoV-2, data on the immune response …

Background Although recent epidemiological data suggest that pneumococci may contribute
to the risk of SARS-CoV-2 disease, cases of coinfection with Streptococcus pneumoniae in …

Background: Extensive efforts have been made in optimizing monoclonal immunoglobulin
(Ig) G antibodies for use in clinical practice. Accumulating evidence suggests that IgA or anti …

Decrypting the B cell ontogeny of HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) is
paramount for vaccine design. Here, we characterized IgA and IgG bNAbs of three distinct B …

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and its mechanisms have
been thoroughly studied by researchers all over the world with the hope of finding answers …

In the present review, we shall discuss the different components of the HIV-specific immune
response elicited by the infection, the kinetics of these responses during primary infection …

As sexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) occurs via the mucosa,
an ideal HIV-1 vaccine should induce both mucosal and systemic immunity. We therefore …
