A sweet surprise for HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies

Johannes P M Langedijk et al. Nat Med. 2012 Nov.

Abstract

The production of cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies is the ultimate goal in HIV vaccine development, but no immunogen other than HIV itself has been able to elicit this type of humoral immunity. In natural HIV infections, these antibodies take several years to develop. A new study sheds light on what may be causing this delay in neutralizing antibody development (pages 1688-1692).
