Scientists discovered that repetitive HIV vaccinations can lead the body to produce antibodies targeting the immune complexes ...

Many vaccines work by introducing a protein to the body that resembles part of a virus. Ideally, the immune system will produce long-lasting antibodies recognizing that specific virus, thereby ...

Transmission electron micrograph of HIV-1 virus particles (colorized yellow/gold) replicating from an HIV-infected H9 T-cell (purple). Budding virus particles that have not yet separated from the ...

Many vaccines work by introducing a protein to the body that resembles part of a virus. Ideally, the immune system will ...

A unique reaction in which antibodies bind to other antibodies may help scientists at Scripps Research better understand how ...

Repetitive HIV vaccinations can lead the body to produce antibodies targeting the immune complexes already bound to the virus ...

Scientists demonstrate how T4 bacteriophages can calibrate super-resolution microscopes with nanometer accuracy, enabling ...

Many vaccines work by introducing a protein to the body that resembles part of a virus. Ideally, the immune system will produce ...

This is a mugshot of a killer. The little yellow dots are HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) particles, also called virions. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), an ...

For some HIV vaccines, repetitive immunizations lead to a chain reaction of antibody production against immune complexes ...

A technique invented by the lab, known as Electron Microscopy-Based Polyclonal Epitope Mapping (EMPEM), lets the researchers see exactly where on the HIV virus antibodies bind. When they carried ...
