Broadly neutralizing antibodies protect against hepatitis C virus quasispecies challenge (2007)
Journal Article
Law, M., Maruyama, T., Lewis, J., Giang, E., Tarr, A. W., Stamataki, Z., …Burton, D. R. (2008). Broadly neutralizing antibodies protect against hepatitis C virus quasispecies challenge. Nature Medicine, 14(1), 25-27. https://doi.org/10.1038/nm1698

A major problem in hepatitis C virus (HCV) immunotherapy or vaccine design is the extreme variability of the virus. We identified human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that neutralize genetically diverse HCV isolates and protect against heterologous HCV...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver disease worldwide and there is a pressing need for the development of a preventative vaccine as well as new treatments. It was recently demonstrated that the mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb) AP33 poten...

Human combinatorial libraries yield rare antibodies that broadly neutralize hepatitis C virus (2007)
Journal Article
Johansson, D. X., Voisset, C., Tarr, A. W., Aung, M., Ball, J. K., Dubuisson, J., & Persson, M. A. (2007). Human combinatorial libraries yield rare antibodies that broadly neutralize hepatitis C virus. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 104(41), 16269-16274. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.0705522104

One way to dissect the antibody response to an invading microorganism is to clone the antibody repertoire from immune donors and subsequently characterize the specific antibodies. Recently, methodological advances have allowed investigations of neutr... Read More about Human combinatorial libraries yield rare antibodies that broadly neutralize hepatitis C virus.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major cause of severe chronic liver disease including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HCV has been classified into six major genotypes that exhibit extensive genetic variability, particularly in the enve...
