SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies discovered in a 20-year-old human antibody library

In an article published in the open-access journal Advance Engineering, a multinational team of researchers reported the selection and characterization of 3 potent SARS-CoV-2 antibodies - S-E6, S-B8, and S-D4 - from a pre-COVID-19 human combinatorial antibody library that was established 20 years ago.

RA patients taking glucocorticoids or B-cell therapies may have worse COVID-19 vaccine response

New research presented this week at ACR Convergence, the American College of Rheumatology's annual meeting, shows that people with chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), who take immunosuppressive therapy appear to have an impaired immunity response to SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19, vaccines. Patients currently on glucocorticoids or B-cell depleting therapy appear to have an even more severely impeded vaccine response.

Immunocompromised patients using rituximab could benefit from third COVID-19 booster vaccine

New research presented this week at ACR Convergence, the American College of Rheumatology's annual meeting, shows immunocompromised patients using rituximab (a drug used to treat diseases like rheumatoid arthritis) were able to produce antibodies against COVID-19 (seroconvert) after receiving a third COVID-19 vaccine dose, even if there was no development of the antibody after the first two doses of the vaccine.

Virtual exercise program can be safe for people with osteoarthritis, research finds

New research presented this week at ACR Convergence, the American College of Rheumatology's annual meeting, found that a virtual exercise program can be safe for people with musculoskeletal conditions, improved their health outcomes, and helped them feel more socially connected, an important benefit during the pandemic when many people have chosen to avoid in-person exercise classes.
