FcγR binding differentially contributes to protection by two human monoclonal antibodies targeting Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein | Science Translational Medicine

Fc binding is dispensable for protection against malaria by CIS43LS and L9LS, but Fc variants with enhanced binding to FcγRs can increase protection.

Powerful blasts of X-rays could reveal a black hole waking from sleep

New Scientist - Space - Wed, 23/04/2025 - 13:00
Unusual signals called quasi periodic eruptions appear to come from black holes, but we don't know what creates them. Now astronomers have seen the most powerful one of these signals ever, and have a new idea about their cause
