Really pleased to share our review on the potential risks of antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) in #SARSCoV2 infection. We also highlight risk mitigation strategies for vaccination and therapeutic antibody interventions. nature.com/articles/s41564-0… @WheatleyAtotheK @KentLaboratory

1. New work from us (@WheatleyAtotheK @scientist_JJ @WenShiLee @KentLaboratory @TheDohertyInst) comparing whole S or the smaller RBD of #SARSCoV2 as #vaccines. We asked what would homologous/heterologous prime-boost vaccinations look like in mice/monkeys. Cont. #COVID19
Prime-boost protein subunit vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 are highly immunogenic in mice and macaques biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #bioRxiv

Our most recent study: tetramer staining of healthy donors and #COVID19 patients show a suboptimal #SARSCoV2 specific CD8 T-cell response associated with the prominent HLA-A*02:01 phenotype. doi.org/10.1101/2020.08.17.2… Fantastic teamwork @kedzierskalab @TheDohertyInst

Handy lit review from @Hyonxhi, one of @KentLaboratory's excellent B cell experts!
I thought it'd be nice to do a direct comparison of anti-Spike/RBD IgG responses induced by #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 #vaccine candidates in humans (and primates) published thus far. Which would you jab into your arm? ;)

Congratulations to Dr Jennifer Juno and colleagues, whose research on the immune response to #COVID-19’s spike protein has been published in Nature Medicine tonight – information that's important for future validation of vaccine candidates. doherty.edu.au/news-events/n…
So happy to share our work just published in Small: doi.org/10.1002/smll.2020028… Many thanks to Tom, the Kent Lab @KentLaboratory and other co-workers at CBNS @ARCCoEBionano. Also thanks to Athina @AthinaAnastasa1 at ETH Polymeric Materials @AnastasakiLab for useful discussions.

If you need a break from COVID-related papers, check out our latest work in @CellReports, where we describe an IL-23 responsive subset of human Vd2 T cells. cell.com/cell-reports/fullte… Defined by high CD26 expression, these cells are present in adults and neonates...

This MRFF #antiviral #COVID19 bid was only possible with the generous transparent sharing of reagents, data, assays, I am so excited to be working with these incredible #antibody partners @TheDohertyInst @BurnetInstitute @CSL @UNSW @CSIRO Affinity Bio

1/ Excited to share @kentlaboratory's first pre-print! With @Hyonxhi and @WheatleyAtotheK, we characterised the B and T cell response to #SARS-CoV-2 spike in 41 convalescent adults. Great collaboration cross the @TheDohertyInst @WEHI_research @WHOCCFluMelb. What did we find?

Our editor's pick for the month is from Hillary Vanderven @KentLaboratory. They explore the use of antibodies with Fc‐mediated effector functions to prevent and control viral infections, especially #influenza. #ICBnews @TheDohertyInst onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
