Research
T-independent antibody responses against bacteria
Current vaccines against bacteria are limited by serotype specificity and lack of long-term efficacy. With expanding resistance against antibiotics, new strategies for augmenting antibacterial immunity are clearly needed. Using a "bedside-to-bench" research approach, Dr. Maglione is studying human primary immunodeficiencies that impair the ability to produce antibodies against bacteria in order to understand the biological determinants of successful immunity against these pathogens. The goal of this work is to translate new information about how humans make antibodies against bacteria into novel strategies for immune therapies and vaccines. Particular attention is paid to "T-independent" antibody responses, as they are quite potent against bacteria but have not been extensively studied outside of animal models.
Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device and biotechnology companies to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their relationships with such companies.
Below are financial relationships with industry reported by Dr. Maglione during 2021 and/or 2022. Please note that this information may differ from information posted on corporate sites due to timing or classification differences.
