Humoral immunity refers to antibody-mediated immune responses. Antibodies are produced by plasma cells and protect the host from infection in three main ways: by binding to pathogens to inhibit ...

研制有效的艾滋病疫苗一直面临巨大挑战，其中一个主要原因是导致这种疾病的HIV病毒变异非常快，可以躲避疫苗产生的抗体反应。几年前，麻省理工学院的研究人员发现，在两周内接种一系列剂量递增的艾滋病疫苗，可以产生更多的中和抗体，从而帮助克服部分挑战。然而，短 ...
