Limits for Antibody Affinity Maturation and Repertoire Diversification in Hypervaccinated Humans
20 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
The immune system is known to generate a diverse panel of high-affinity Abs by adaptively improving the recognition of pathogens during ongoing immune responses. In this study, we report the biological limits for Ag-driven affinity maturation and repertoire diversification by analyzing Ab repertoires in two adult volunteers after each of three consecutive booster vaccinations with tetanus toxoid. Maturation of...
