Dirty mice better recapitulate key features of mRNA vaccine immunogenicity observed in humans

Beatriz Praena, Frances K. Shepherd, Cera A. McDonald…·Ryan Andrew Langlois

This study shows that dirty mice, with broad microbial exposure, better model human immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines, showing reduced antibody titers and faster waning compared to SPF mice.

Neu5Gc binding loss of subtype H7 influenza A virus facilitates adaptation to gallinaceous poultry following transmission from waterbirds but restricts spillback

Minhui Guan, Thomas Jude Deliberto, Aijing Feng…·Xiu‐Feng Wan

This study shows H7 influenza A viruses lose Neu5Gc binding during adaptation to chickens, enhancing transmissibility in poultry but reducing transmission back to wild birds.
