Bakr Ahmed Taha et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic is caused by SARS-CoV-2, which relies on spike proteins to infect host cells. A segmentation approach based on superpixel technique was used to estimate the density of spike proteins in 586 SARS-CoV-2 TEM images. The obtained model can be incorporated into an intelligent system to improve viral detection and classification accuracy.

IgG3 and IgM Identified as Key to SARS-CoV-2 Neutralization in Convalescent Plasma Pools

Christina Kober et al.

Summary: Analysis of convalescent plasma shows that IgG3 and IgM play important roles in binding to SARS-CoV-2 antigens and strongly correlate with viral neutralization. Despite the relatively small mass, IgG3 and IgM collectively account for approximately 80% of the total neutralization. This has significant implications for the development of COVID-19 therapies.

Potent neutralization by monoclonal human IgM against SARS-CoV-2 is impaired by class switch

Ilaria Callegari et al.

Summary: In this study, we isolated spike-protein-specific B cells and produced recombinant antibodies of IgM, IgG, and IgA classes. Two IgM antibodies demonstrated potent virus neutralization at picomolar concentrations, but this potency was lost when switched to IgG. Decreased avidity alone cannot explain the loss of potency.

Humanization and expression of IgG and IgM antibodies in plants as potential diagnostic reagents for Valley Fever

Collin Jugler et al.

Summary: Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are important proteins used in various life science applications. In this study, the researchers demonstrated that a mouse mAb against an antigen from Coccidioides spp. can be engineered for use in serologic diagnostic test kits for coccidioidomycosis using plant expression. The recombinant mAbs produced in plants showed recognition of the target antigen and could potentially provide a solution to the lack of consistently reactive antibody controls for Valley Fever diagnosis.

Enhanced SARS-CoV-2 neutralization by dimeric IgA

Zijun Wang et al.

Summary: The IgA response to SARS-CoV-2 was characterized in a cohort of 149 convalescent individuals after COVID-19 diagnosis. IgA responses in plasma generally correlated with IgG responses, and B cells producing IgM, IgG, and IgA were derived from common progenitor cells. Notably, IgA dimers were found to be 15 times more potent than IgA monomers against SARS-CoV-2, suggesting their potential value for protection and vaccine efficacy.

Summary: Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 tend to become critically ill around the activation of the adaptive immune response. Evidence shows that antibodies in serum may worsen the disease during seroconversion. High anti-spike IgG levels in critically ill patients with severe COVID-19 induce excessive inflammatory responses and may lead to pulmonary complications such as microvascular thrombosis.
