Nucleoside-modified mRNA immunization elicits influenza virus hemagglutinin stalk-specific antibodies

The highly conserved influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) stalk represents a potential target for a broadly protective vaccine. Here, the authors show that immunization with nucleoside-modified mRNA encoding full-length HA formulated in lipid nanoparticles elicits HA stalk-specific antibodies and prot...
