Though the current situation regarding COVID-19 is still severe, since July, many successes have been achieved on SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody and Phase II clinical trials of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. With the effort of scientists worldwide, results indicate that research will continue to make progress in the fight against COVID-19.

 

Herein, we discuss several frequently asked questions regarding both the design of the neutralizing antibody and the progress of vaccines for SARS-CoV-2. What is meant by neutralizing antibody research? What is current progress of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines? How do we verify the safety and efficiency of vaccines with animal models?

 

1. Neutralizing Antibody Research

  • Coronavirus S protein is a key factor which determines virus virulence, tissue tropism, and host range - which have made it the main target of neutralizing antibody and vaccine design.
  • The most effective neutralizing antibody was BD-368-2, which showed strong therapeutic and preventive effects on hACE2 transgenic mice infected with SARS-COV-2.
  • In hACE2 mouse models, the administration of H014 can simultaneously reduce the SARS-CoV-2 virus titer and mitigate pathological changes in the lungs.

 

2. Development Progress of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines

  1. Overview of Immunizations and Vaccines
  2. COVID-19 Vaccine Updates through July 2020
  3. Understanding Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE)
  4. Risks of Antibody-Dependent Enhancement (ADE) of Coronaviruses
