Antibody feedback limits the expansion of cognate memory B cells but drives the diversification of vaccine-induced antibody responses
2019-10-18
Abstract excerpt
Generating sufficient antibody to block infection is a key challenge for vaccines against malaria. Here we show that antibody titres to a key target, the repeat region of the Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein ( Pf CSP), plateaued after two immunizations in a clinical trial of the radiation-attenuated sporozoite vaccine. To understand the mechanisms limiting vaccine responsiveness, we developed Ig-kn...
