Viral Infections in Healthy and Immunocompromised Hosts

The objective of this study is to collect samples and data from individuals who have been exposed to or have contracted viral infections.

Sample Collection for Systems Evaluation of Patients With Unknown or Incompletely Characterized Immune Defects

Researchers want to study samples from people with healthy immune systems and people with conditions that affect how the immune system works to learn more about the immune system and how immunological disorders predispose affected individuals to a myriad of complications, including infection, immune dysregulation with autoimmune disease and aberrant inflammatory responses, and malignancy.

A Novel Vaccine and Therapeutic for Hendra and Nipah Viruses

NIAID-funded researchers at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU) and their collaborators at the National Cancer Institute discovered a potential antibody treatment for Nipah and Hendra virus. The researchers developed a human monoclonal antibody (mAb) known as m102.4 that targets the G glycoprotein of both viruses and found that the mAb effectively protected ferrets after exposure to Nipah or Hendra virus. The mAb was also effective in protecting nonhuman primates after exposure.
