Forward Vaccinology: CTL Targeting Based upon Physical Detection of HLA-Bound Peptides.

abstract：:Memory B cells that are generated during an infection or following vaccination act as sentinels to guard against future infections. Upon repeat antigen exposure memory B cells differentiate into new antibody-secreting plasma cells to provide rapid and sustained protection. Some pathogens evade or suppress the humoral ...
