BACKGROUND: Despite decades of research on the influenza virus, we still lack a predictive understanding of how vaccination reshapes each person's antibody response, which impedes efforts to design better vaccines. Models using pre-vaccination antibo...

Seasonal influenza vaccines play a crucial role in saving numerous lives annually. However, the constant evolution of the influenza A virus necessitates frequent vaccine updates to ensure its ongoing effectiveness. The decision to develop a new vacci...
INTRODUCTION: The World Health Organization considers the values of antibody titers in the hemagglutination inhibition assay as one of the most important criteria for assessing successful vaccination. Mathematical modeling of cross-immunity allows fo...
Viral infections significantly impact the immune system, and impact will persist until recovery. However, the influence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection on the homeostatic immune status and secondary immune response in rec...
Antigenic characterization of circulating influenza A virus (IAV) isolates is routinely assessed by using the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assays for surveillance purposes. It is also used to determine the need for annual influenza vaccine update...
Newcastle disease (ND) and Avian influenza (AI) are the major problems and the most economically important viral diseases in the poultry industry; therefore, vaccination against these diseases is considered one of the most effective ways of preventio...
BACKGROUND: Annual influenza vaccination is an important public health measure to prevent influenza infections and is strongly recommended for cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients, especially in the current coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandem...
The number of patients affected by chronic diseases with special vaccination needs is burgeoning. In this scenario, predictive markers of immunogenicity, as well as signatures of immune responses are typically missing even though it would especially ...
Seasonal influenza viruses are constantly changing and produce a different set of circulating strains each season. Small genetic changes can accumulate over time and result in antigenically different viruses; this may prevent the body's immune system...
Machine learning has the potential to identify novel biological factors underlying successful antibody responses to influenza vaccines. The first attempts have revealed a high level of complexity in establishing influenza immunity, and many different...
