A vaccine that elicits broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) against HIV-1 is likely to be
protective, but this has not been achieved. To explore immunization regimens that might elicit …

[HTML][HTML] Antibodies from primary humoral responses modulate the recruitment of naive B cells during secondary responses

…, N Phelps, Y Adachi, S Eskandarzadeh, M Kubitz… - Immunity, 2022 - cell.com
