Nature Immunology: Mucosal unadjuvanted booster vaccines elicit local IgA responses by conversion of pre-existing immunity in mice
ABSTRACT Mucosal delivery of vaccine boosters induces robust local protective immune responses even without any adjuvants. Yet, the mechanisms by which antigen alone induces mucosal immunity in the respiratory tract remain unclear. Here we show that an intranasal booster with an unadjuvanted recombinant SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, after intramuscular immunization with 1 μg of mRNA–LNP vaccine encoding the full-length SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2), elicits protective mucosal immunity by r...

Nature Immunology: Identification of soluble biomarkers that associate with distinct manifestations of long COVID
ABSTRACT Long coronavirus disease (COVID) is a heterogeneous clinical condition of uncertain etiology triggered by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Here we used ultrasensitive approaches to profile the immune system and the plasma proteome in healthy convalescent individuals and individuals with long COVID, spanning geographically independent cohorts from Sweden and the United Kingdom. Symptomatic disease was not consistently associated with quantitative differenc...

ACS Chemical Biology: Neurotoxic Implications of Human Coronaviruses in Neurodegenerative Diseases: A Perspective from Amyloid Aggregation
ABSTRACT Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) include seven species: HCoV-229E, HCoV-NL63, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-HKU1, MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV-1, and SARS-CoV-2. The last three, classified as Betacoronaviruses, are highly transmissible and have caused severe pandemics. HCoV infections primarily affect the respiratory system, leading to symptoms such as dry cough, fever, and breath shortness, which can progress to acute respiratory failure and death. Beyond respiratory effects, increasing evidence links HCoVs to neurological dy...

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials: Long COVID clinical evaluation, research and impact on society: a global expert consensus
ABSTRACT Background Long COVID is a complex, heterogeneous syndrome affecting over four hundred million people globally. There are few recommendations, and no formal training exists for medical professionals to assist with clinical evaluation and management of patients with Long COVID. More research into the pathology, cellular, and molecular mechanisms of Long COVID, and treatments is needed. The goal of this work is to disseminate essential information about Long COVID and recommendations about definitio...

BMC Public Health: Follow-up of long COVID based on the definition of WHO: a multi-centre cross-sectional questionnaire-based study
ABSTRACT Background Since long COVID has hindered people from normal life, it is essential to understand its full spectrum of manifestation. However, it was heterogeneous in the existing studies and few large-scale studies have been conducted on Asian populations. Here, we conducted a multi-centre questionnaire-based study among Chinese people to explore the long COVID based on the definition of WHO. Methods During March 20, 2023 and June 18, 2023, individuals with a history of confirmed or self-reported...
