Scientists find no connection between pandemic chilblains and SARS-CoV-2 infection

A recent study provides a better understanding of whether SARS-CoV-2 infection is linked with the occurrence of chilblains.

3 Mar 2022

Serological test to assess presence of immunoglobulin isotypes targeted against antigens routinely used in COVID-19 diagnosis

The current study discusses a reliable ELISA that can detect three isotypes of antibody against three SARS-CoV-2 antigens.

Histopathologic and molecular effects in the placenta after SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy

A recent study evaluated the molecular and histopathological effects in the placenta following a SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy.

Peptide-based vaccine fails to protect mice against SARS-CoV-2 despite T cell response

A recent study observed that peptide-based vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 failed to protect mice against COVID-19, albeit eliciting T cell responses.

28 Feb 2022

A promising new vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 and influenza

Researchers create a vaccine candidate that could protect against both SARS-CoV-2 and IAVs.

27 Feb 2022

Research could pave the way for adoption of precision medicine approaches for COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed a frightening reality; the course of infection with this disease is highly variable. Some young patients have died from the virus, whereas several elderly people have survived without experiencing respiratory symptoms at all. Researchers are left wondering: why?

25 Feb 2022

Serological responses to heterologous COVID-19 mRNA vaccination in older individuals

Researchers assess the serological response to a real-world COVID-19 vaccination strategy in older individuals who resided in long-term care facilities.

24 Feb 2022

Immune responses in patients with varying degrees of SARS-CoV-2 infection

In a recent research article published in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers looked at immunological responses in relation to established risk factors for serious illness. This prospective cohort study reports on long-lasting SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody and T-cellular immune responses six months after infection in rt-PCR confirmed cases of different illness severity (community and hospitalized patients).

Edible egg-derived IgY antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron

A new study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server reports on the development of anti-RBD immunoglobulin Y (IgY) antibodies from chicken eggs to block the binding of the viral RBD to human ACE2 receptors. This approach has several advantages since chicken egg-derived IgY can be edible and polyclonal can target multiple epitopes, enhancing neutralizing activity.
