Memory B cell Development in Response to mRNA SARS-CoV-2 and Nanoparticle Immunization in Mice.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Nanoparticle immunogens excel at rapidly inducing high levels of circulating antibodies and are being deployed as part of several novel vaccines. However, their ability to elicit memory B cell responses is less well understood. Here we compared serologic and memory B cell responses to prime boost vaccination with either SARS-CoV-2 Wuhan-Hu-1 mRNA vaccine, or protein nanoparticles: SARS-CoV-2 B.1.351 homotypic containing a single receptor binding domain (RBD); (homotypic beta) or a combination of different Sarbecovirus RBDs (mosaic 8b), respectively. The memory B cells elicited by the 3 vaccine regimens showed closely related antibody sequences, similar levels of somatic mutation and clonal diversity. The breadth of serologic responses elicited by the mosaic nanoparticles were comparable to the homotypic nanoparticle and superior to the mRNA vaccine for some mismatched strains. However, serum neutralizing titers to SARS-CoV-2 were highest after mRNA vaccination. The three vaccines elicited memory B cells that produced antibodies specific to a broad range of epitopes on the RBD that differed in a way that may reflect epitope masking. Monoclonal antibodies derived from memory B cells elicited by the mosaic 8b nanoparticle showed greater breadth against a panel of SARS-CoV-2 variants and SARS-CoV. Significance Statement: Nanoparticle vaccines are promising next-generation vaccine candidates, yet their capacity to generate durable memory B cell responses remains incompletely understood. We compared immune responses following SARS-CoV-2 mRNA, homotypic beta nanoparticle, or mosaic 8b nanoparticle vaccination in mice. Serum antibody neutralizing responses against a panel of SARS-CoV-2 variants elicited by an mRNA vaccine were equivalent or superior to those elicited by mosaic 8b nanoparticle vaccines. However, the monoclonal antibodies derived from memory B cells elicited by the mosaic 8b nanoparticle showed better neutralizing breadth against heterologous pseudoviruses. These findings highlight individual strengths of mRNA and nanoparticle vaccines and show that mosaic 8b nanoparticle immunogens can enhance the breadth of memory B cell-derived antibodies.
