A real-time working memory evaluation system for macaques in microwave fields.

With the development and widespread application of electromagnetic technology, the health hazards of electromagnetic radiation have attracted much attention and concern. The effect of electromagnetic radiation on the nervous system, especially on learning, memory, and cognitive functions, is an important research topic in the field of electromagnetic biological effects. Most previous studies were conducted with rodents, which are relatively mature. As research has progressed, studies using non-human primates as experimental subjects have been carried out. Compared to rodents, non-human primates such as macaques not only have brain structures more similar to those of humans but also exhibit learning and memory processes that are similar. In this paper, we present a behavioral test system for the real-time evaluation of the working memory (WM) of macaques in a microwave environment. The system consists of two parts: hardware and software. The hardware consists of four modules: the operation terminal, the control terminal, the optical signal transmission, and detection module and the reward feedback module. The software program can implement the feeding learning task, the button-pressing learning task, and the delayed match-to-sample task. The device is useful for the real-time evaluation of the WM of macaques in microwave environments, showing good electromagnetic compatibility, a simple and reliable structure, and easy operation.

Revealing unexpected complex encoding but simple decoding mechanisms in motor cortex via separating behaviorally relevant neural signals.

In motor cortex, behaviorally relevant neural responses are entangled with irrelevant signals, which complicates the study of encoding and decoding mechanisms. It remains unclear whether behaviorally irrelevant signals could conceal some critical truth. One solution is to accurately separate behaviorally relevant and irrelevant signals at both single-neuron and single-trial levels, but this approach remains elusive due to the unknown ground truth of behaviorally relevant signals. Therefore, we propose a framework to define, extract, and validate behaviorally relevant signals. Analyzing separated signals in three monkeys performing different reaching tasks, we found neural responses previously considered to contain little information actually encode rich behavioral information in complex nonlinear ways. These responses are critical for neuronal redundancy and reveal movement behaviors occupy a higher-dimensional neural space than previously expected. Surprisingly, when incorporating often-ignored neural dimensions, behaviorally relevant signals can be decoded linearly with comparable performance to nonlinear decoding, suggesting linear readout may be performed in motor cortex. Our findings prompt that separating behaviorally relevant signals may help uncover more hidden cortical mechanisms.

Evaluation of registration-based vs. manual segmentation of rhesus macaque brain MRIs.

With increasing numbers of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) datasets becoming publicly available, researchers and clinicians alike have turned to automated methods of segmentation to enable population-level analyses of these data. Although prior research has evaluated the extent to which automated methods recapitulate "gold standard" manual segmentation methods in the human brain, such an evaluation has not yet been carried out for segmentation of MRIs of the macaque brain. Macaques offer the important opportunity to bridge gaps between microanatomical studies using invasive methods like tract tracing, neural recordings, and high-resolution histology and non-invasive macroanatomical studies using methods like MRI. As such, it is important to evaluate whether automated tools derive data of sufficient quality from macaque MRIs to bridge these gaps. We tested the relationship between automated registration-based segmentation using an open source and actively maintained NHP imaging analysis pipeline (AFNI) and gold standard manual segmentation of 4 structures (2 cortical: anterior cingulate cortex and insula; 2 subcortical: amygdala and caudate) across 37 rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta). We identified some variability in the strength of correlation between automated and manual segmentations across neural regions and differences in relationships with demographic variables like age and sex between the two techniques.

Immunogenicity and safety of an Entamoeba histolytica adjuvanted protein vaccine candidate (LecA+GLA-3M-052 liposomes) in rhesus macaques.

Entamoeba histolytica, the causative agent of amebiasis, is one of the top three parasitic causes of mortality worldwide. However, no vaccine exists against amebiasis. Using a lead candidate vaccine containing the LecA fragment of Gal-lectin and GLA-3M-052 liposome adjuvant, we immunized rhesus macaques via intranasal or intramuscular routes. The vaccine elicited high-avidity functional humoral responses as seen by the inhibition of amebic attachment to mammalian target cells by plasma and stool antibodies. Importantly, antigen-specific IFN-γ-secreting peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and IgG/IgA memory B cells (BMEM) were detected in immunized animals. Furthermore, antigen-specific antibody and cellular responses were maintained for at least 8 months after the final immunization as observed by robust LecA-specific BMEM as well as IFN-γ+ PBMC responses. Overall, both intranasal and intramuscular immunizations elicited a durable and functional response in systemic and mucosal compartments, which supports advancing the LecA+GLA-3M-052 liposome vaccine candidate to clinical testing.

Fusing multi-scale functional connectivity patterns via Multi-Branch Vision Transformer (MB-ViT) for macaque brain age prediction.

Brain age (BA) is defined as a measure of brain maturity and could help characterize both the typical brain development and neuropsychiatric disorders in mammals. Various biological phenotypes have been successfully applied to predict BA of human using chronological age (CA) as label. However, whether the BA of macaque, one of the most important animal models, can also be reliably predicted is largely unknown. To address this question, we propose a novel deep learning model called Multi-Branch Vision Transformer (MB-ViT) to fuse multi-scale (i.e., from coarse-grained to fine-grained) brain functional connectivity (FC) patterns derived from resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) data to predict BA of macaques. The discriminative functional connections and the related brain regions contributing to the prediction are further identified based on Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) method. Our proposed model successfully predicts BA of 450 normal rhesus macaques from the publicly available PRIMatE Data Exchange (PRIME-DE) dataset with lower mean absolute error (MAE) and mean square error (MSE) as well as higher Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) and coefficient of determination (R2) compared to other baseline models. The correlation between the predicted BA and CA reaches as high as 0.82 of our proposed method. Furthermore, our analysis reveals that the functional connections predominantly contributing to the prediction results are situated in the primary motor cortex (M1), visual cortex, area v23 in the posterior cingulate cortex, and dysgranular temporal pole. In summary, our proposed deep learning model provides an effective tool to accurately predict BA of primates (macaque in this study), and lays a solid foundation for future studies of age-related brain diseases in those animal models.

Epigenomic landscapes during prefrontal cortex development and aging in rhesus.

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is essential for higher-level cognitive functions. How epigenetic dynamics participates in PFC development and aging is largely unknown. Here, we profiled epigenomic landscapes of rhesus monkey PFCs from prenatal to aging stages. The dynamics of chromatin states, including higher-order chromatin structure, chromatin interaction and histone modifications are coordinated to regulate stage-specific gene transcription, participating in distinct processes of neurodevelopment. Dramatic changes of epigenetic signals occur around the birth stage. Notably, genes involved in neuronal cell differentiation and layer specification are pre-configured by bivalent promoters. We identified a cis-regulatory module and the transcription factors (TFs) associated with basal radial glia development, which was associated with large brain size in primates. These TFs include GLI3, CREB5 and SOX9. Interestingly, the genes associated with the basal radial glia (bRG)-associated cis-element module, such as SRY and SOX9, are enriched in sex differentiation. Schizophrenia-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms are more enriched in super enhancers (SEs) than typical enhancers, suggesting that SEs play an important role in neural network wiring. A cis-regulatory element of DBN1 is identified, which is critical for neuronal cell proliferation and synaptic neuron differentiation. Notably, the loss of distal chromatin interaction and H3K27me3 signal are hallmarks of PFC aging, which are associated with abnormal expression of aging-related genes and transposon activation, respectively. Collectively, our findings shed light on epigenetic mechanisms underlying primate brain development and aging.

Enhancer AAVs for targeting spinal motor neurons and descending motor pathways in rodents and macaque.

Experimental access to cell types within the mammalian spinal cord is severely limited by the availability of genetic tools. To enable access to lower motor neurons (LMNs) and LMN subtypes, which function to integrate information from the brain and control movement through direct innervation of effector muscles, we generated single cell multiome datasets from mouse and macaque spinal cords and discovered putative enhancers for each neuronal population. We cloned these enhancers into adeno-associated viral vectors (AAVs) driving a reporter fluorophore and functionally screened them in mouse. The most promising candidate enhancers were then extensively characterized using imaging and molecular techniques and further tested in rat and macaque to show conservation of LMN labeling. Additionally, we combined enhancer elements into a single vector to achieve simultaneous labeling of upper motor neurons (UMNs) and LMNs. This unprecedented LMN toolkit will enable future investigations of cell type function across species and potential therapeutic interventions for human neurodegenerative diseases.

Expression of SARS-CoV-2 entry molecules ACE2, NRP1, TMPRSS2, and FURIN in the reproductive tissues of male macaques.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) reportedly affects male reproductive function by causing spermatogenesis dysfunction and suppressing testosterone secretion. However, the relationship between COVID-19 and impaired reproductive function, such as whether these effects on reproductive function are a direct effect of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in male reproductive organs or an indirect effect of high fever, is not known. Here, we examined whether the cell entry molecules of SARS-CoV-2, namely, ACE2, NRP1, TMPRSS2, and FURIN, are expressed in the male reproductive organs using the testes and accessory gonads of macaques during the breeding season. RT-PCR expression analysis showed that the testes alone expressed all four molecules. Immunohistochemical staining of testis tissue sections revealed that ACE2 is expressed in Leydig cells and the apical region of Sertoli cells, whereas NRP1 is expressed in the cell bodies surrounding the Leydig and Sertoli cell nuclei. FURIN is mainly expressed in Leydig cells, secondary spermatocytes, and spermatids. However, TMPRSS2 immunopositive cells were not observed. Therefore, it was not possible to observe cells expressing all four molecules in the gonads and accessory gonads of male primates. These results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 is unlikely to directly affect spermatogenesis in primates or proliferate in cells of the seminiferous tubules and undergo release into the semen through the previously known ACE2-mediated infection route. However, the expression of three molecules, including ACE2, was observed in Leydig cells, suggesting that testosterone synthesis and secretion may be affected when primates, including humans, are infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Molecular characteristics of rhesus macaque interferon-lambda receptor 1 (mmuIFNLR1): Sequence identity, distribution and alteration after simian-human immunodeficiency virus infection in the skin and buccal mucosa.

Interferon-lambda receptor 1 (IFNLR1) is the key to interferon-lambda's biological activities. Rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) are supposedly more suitable for translational studies on interferon lambda-associated human diseases, yet little is known about their IFNLR1 (mmuIFNLR1). In this study, we cloned the coding sequence of mmuIFNLR1, examined its variants, and determined the distribution of mmuIFNLR1 mRNA and immunoreactivity in the buccal mucosa and arm skin of normal and immunodeficiency virus (SHIV/SIV) infected rhesus macaques. It was found that mmuIFNLR1 has 93.1% amino acid sequence identity to that of humans; all the amino acid residues of mmuIFNLR1 signal peptide, transmembrane region, PxxLxF motif and those essential for ligand binding are identical to that of humans; 6 variants of mmuIFNLR1, including the ones corresponding to that of humans were detected; IFNLR1 immunoreactivity was localized in primarily the epithelia of buccal mucosa and arm skin; SHIV/SIV infection could affect the levels of mmuIFNLR1 mRNA and immunoreactivity. These data expanded our knowledge on mmuIFNLR1 and provided a scientific basis for rational use of rhesus macaques in studies of IFN-λ associated human diseases like AIDS. Future studies testing IFNLR1-targeting therapeutics in rhesus macaques were warranted.

Heterogeneous orientation tuning in the primary visual cortex of mice diverges from Gabor-like receptive fields in primates.

A key feature of neurons in the primary visual cortex (V1) of primates is their orientation selectivity. Recent studies using deep neural network models showed that the most exciting input (MEI) for mouse V1 neurons exhibit complex spatial structures that predict non-uniform orientation selectivity across the receptive field (RF), in contrast to the classical Gabor filter model. Using local patches of drifting gratings, we identified heterogeneous orientation tuning in mouse V1 that varied up to 90° across sub-regions of the RF. This heterogeneity correlated with deviations from optimal Gabor filters and was consistent across cortical layers and recording modalities (calcium vs. spikes). In contrast, model-synthesized MEIs for macaque V1 neurons were predominantly Gabor like, consistent with previous studies. These findings suggest that complex spatial feature selectivity emerges earlier in the visual pathway in mice than in primates. This may provide a faster, though less general, method of extracting task-relevant information.

Mosaic sarbecovirus nanoparticles elicit cross-reactive responses in pre-vaccinated animals.

Immunization with mosaic-8b (nanoparticles presenting 8 SARS-like betacoronavirus [sarbecovirus] receptor-binding domains [RBDs]) elicits more broadly cross-reactive antibodies than homotypic SARS-CoV-2 RBD-only nanoparticles and protects against sarbecoviruses. To investigate original antigenic sin (OAS) effects on mosaic-8b efficacy, we evaluated the effects of prior COVID-19 vaccinations in non-human primates and mice on anti-sarbecovirus responses elicited by mosaic-8b, admix-8b (8 homotypics), or homotypic SARS-CoV-2 immunizations, finding the greatest cross-reactivity for mosaic-8b. As demonstrated by molecular fate mapping, in which antibodies from specific cohorts of B cells are differentially detected, B cells primed by WA1 spike mRNA-LNP dominated antibody responses after RBD-nanoparticle boosting. While mosaic-8b- and homotypic-nanoparticles boosted cross-reactive antibodies, de novo antibodies were predominantly induced by mosaic-8b, and these were specific for variant RBDs with increased identity to RBDs on mosaic-8b. These results inform OAS mechanisms and support using mosaic-8b to protect COVID-19-vaccinated/infected humans against as-yet-unknown SARS-CoV-2 variants and animal sarbecoviruses with human spillover potential.

Mapping sagittal-plane reference brain atlas of the cynomolgus macaque (Macaca fascicularis) based on consecutive cytoarchitectonic images.

The brain atlas is essential for exploring the anatomical structure and function of the brain. Non-human primates, such as cynomolgus macaque, have received increasing attention due to their genetic similarity to humans. However, current macaque brain atlases only offer coarse sections with intervals along the coronal direction, failing to meet the needs of single-cell resolution studies in functional and multi-omics research of the macaque brain. To address this issue, we utilized fluorescence micro-optical sectioning tomography to obtain sub-micron resolution cytoarchitectonic images of the macaque brain at the sagittal plane. Based on the obtained 8000 image sequences, a reference brain atlas comprising 45 sagittal sections was created, delineating 270 brain regions other than the cortex. Additionally, a website was established to share the reference atlas corresponding image data. This study is expected to provide an essential dataset and tool for scientists studying the macaque brain.

Coupled oscillations orchestrate selective information transmission in visual cortex.

Performing visually guided behavior involves flexible routing of sensory information towards associative areas. We hypothesize that in visual cortical areas, this routing is shaped by a gating influence of the local neuronal population on the activity of the same population's single neurons. We analyzed beta frequencies (representing local population activity), high-gamma frequencies (representative of the activity of local clusters of neurons), and the firing of single neurons in the medial temporal (MT) area of behaving rhesus monkeys. Our results show an influence of beta activity on single neurons, predictive of behavioral performance. Similarly, the temporal dependence of high-gamma on beta predicts behavioral performance. These demonstrate a unidirectional influence of network-level neural dynamics on single-neuron activity, preferentially routing relevant information. This demonstration of a local top-down influence unveils a previously unexplored perspective onto a core feature of cortical information processing: the selective transmission of sensory information to downstream areas based on behavioral relevance.

Parallel patterns of cognitive aging in marmosets and macaques.

As humans age, some experience cognitive impairment while others do not. When impairment does occur, it is not expressed uniformly across cognitive domains and varies in severity across individuals. Translationally relevant model systems are critical for understanding the neurobiological drivers of this variability, which is essential to uncovering the mechanisms underlying the brain's susceptibility to the effects of aging. As such, non-human primates are particularly important due to shared behavioral, neuroanatomical, and age-related neuropathological features with humans. For many decades, macaque monkeys have served as the primary non-human primate model for studying the neurobiology of cognitive aging. More recently, the common marmoset has emerged as an advantageous model for this work due to its short lifespan that facilitates longitudinal studies. Despite their growing popularity as a model, whether marmosets exhibit patterns of age-related cognitive impairment comparable to those observed in macaques and humans remains unexplored. To address this major limitation for the development and evaluation of the marmoset as a model of cognitive aging, we directly compared working memory ability as a function of age in macaques and marmosets on the identical working memory task. Our results demonstrate that marmosets and macaques exhibit remarkably similar age-related working memory deficits, highlighting the value of the marmoset as a model for cognitive aging research within the neuroscience community.

Preclinical evaluation of transaxial intraputaminal trajectory for enhanced distribution of grafted cells in Parkinson's disease.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate the feasibility and safety of a novel transaxial surgical approach for the delivery of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived dopaminergic neuroprogenitor cells (DANPCs) into the putamen nucleus using nonhuman primates and surgical techniques and tools relevant to human clinical translation. METHODS: Nine immunosuppressed, unlesioned adult cynomolgus macaques (4 females, 5 males) received intraputaminal injections of vehicle or DANPCs (0.9 × 105 to 1.1 × 105 cells/µL) under real-time intraoperative MRI guidance. The infusates were combined with 1-mM gadoteridol (for intraoperative MRI visualization) and delivered via two tracks per hemisphere (ventral and dorsal) using a transaxial approach. The total volumes of infusion were 25 µL and 50 µL for the right and left putamen, respectively (infusion rate 2.5 µL/min). Animals were evaluated with a battery of clinical and behavioral outcome measures and euthanized 7 or 30 days postsurgery; full necropsies were performed by a board-certified veterinary pathologist. Brain tissues were collected and processed for immunohistochemistry, including against the human-specific marker STEM121. RESULTS: The optimized surgical technique and tools produced successful targeting of the putamen via the transaxial approach. Intraoperative MR images confirmed on-target intraputaminal injections in all animals. All animals survived to scheduled termination without clinical evidence of neurological deficits. The first 4 animals to undergo surgery had mild brain swelling noted at the end of surgery, of which 3 had transient reduced vision; administration of mannitol therapy and reduced intravenous fluid during the surgical procedure addressed these complications. Immunostaining against STEM121 confirmed the presence of grafted cells along the injection track within the targeted putamen area of DANPC-treated animals. All adverse histological findings were limited in scope and consistent with surgical manipulation, injection procedure, and postsurgical inflammatory response to the mechanical disruption caused by the cannula insertion. CONCLUSIONS: The delivery system, injection procedure, and DANPCs were well tolerated in all animals. Prevention of mild brain swelling by mannitol dosing and reduction of intravenous fluids during surgery allowed visual effects to be avoided. The results of the study established that this novel transaxial approach can be used to correctly and safely target cell injections to the postcommissural putamen and support clinical investigation.

Running into differences.

Body movement does not significantly increase neuronal activity in the primary visual cortex of marmosets, in contrast to the effects observed in mice.

Comparative basolateral amygdala connectomics reveals dissociable single-neuron projection patterns to frontal cortex in macaques and mice.

Basolateral amygdala (BLA) is a key hub for affect in the brain,1,2,3 and dysfunction within this area contributes to a host of psychiatric disorders.4,5 BLA is extensively and reciprocally interconnected with frontal cortex,6,7,8,9 and some aspects of its function are evolutionarily conserved across rodents, anthropoid primates, and humans.10 Neuron density in BLA is substantially lower in primates compared to murine rodents,11 and frontal cortex (FC) is dramatically expanded in primates, particularly the more anterior granular and dysgranular areas.12,13,14 Yet, how these anatomical differences influence the projection patterns of single BLA neurons to frontal cortex across rodents and primates is unknown. Using a barcoded connectomic approach, we assessed the single BLA neuron connections to frontal cortex in mice and macaques. We found that BLA neurons are more likely to project to multiple distinct parts of FC in mice than in macaques. Further, while single BLA neuron projections to nucleus accumbens were similarly organized in mice and macaques, BLA-FC connections differed substantially. Notably, BLA connections to subcallosal anterior cingulate cortex (scACC) in macaques were least likely to branch to other medial frontal cortex areas compared to perigenual ACC (pgACC). This pattern of connections was reversed in the mouse homologues of these areas, infralimbic and prelimbic cortex (IL and PL), mirroring functional differences between rodents and non-human primates. Taken together, these results indicate that BLA connections to FC are not linearly scaled from mice to macaques and instead the organization of single-neuron BLA connections is distinct between these species.

Altered brain metabolites in male nonhuman primate offspring exposed to maternal immune activation.

Converging data show that exposure to maternal immune activation (MIA) in utero alters brain development in animals and increases the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in humans. A recently developed non-human primate MIA model affords opportunities for studies with uniquely strong translational relevance to human neurodevelopment. The current longitudinal study used 1H-MRS to investigate the developmental trajectory of prefrontal cortex metabolites in male rhesus monkey offspring of dams (n = 14) exposed to a modified form of the inflammatory viral mimic, polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (Poly IC), in the late first trimester. Brain metabolites in these animals were compared to offspring of dams that received saline (n = 10) or no injection (n = 4). N-acetylaspartate (NAA), glutamate, creatine, choline, myo-inositol, taurine, and glutathione were estimated from PRESS and MEGA-PRESS acquisitions obtained at 6, 12, 24, 36, and 45 months of age. Prior investigations of this cohort reported reduced frontal cortical gray and white matter and subtle cognitive impairments in MIA offspring. We hypothesized that the MIA-induced neurodevelopmental changes would extend to abnormal brain metabolite levels, which would be associated with the observed cognitive impairments. Prefrontal NAA was significantly higher in the MIA offspring across all ages (p < 0.001) and was associated with better performance on the two cognitive measures most sensitive to impairment in the MIA animals (both p < 0.05). Myo-inositol was significantly lower across all ages in MIA offspring but was not associated with cognitive performance. Taurine was elevated in MIA offspring at 36 and 45 months. Glutathione did not differ between groups. MIA exposure in male non-human primates is associated with altered prefrontal cortex metabolites during childhood and adolescence. A positive association between elevated NAA and cognitive performance suggests the hypothesis that elevated NAA throughout these developmental stages reflects a protective or resilience-related process in MIA-exposed offspring. The potential relevance of these findings to human neurodevelopmental disorders is discussed.

Orientation selectivity mapping in the visual cortex.

The orientation map is one of the most well-studied functional maps of the visual cortex. However, results from the literature are of different qualities. Clear boundaries among different orientation domains and blurred uncertain distinctions were shown in different studies. These unclear imaging results will lead to an inaccuracy in depicting cortical structures, and the lack of consideration in experimental design will also lead to biased depictions of the cortical features. How we accurately define orientation domains will impact the entire field of research. In this study, we test how spatial frequency (SF), stimulus size, location, chromatic, and data processing methods affect the orientation functional maps (including a large area of dorsal V4, and parts of dorsal V1) acquired by intrinsic signal optical imaging. Our results indicate that, for large imaging fields, large grating stimuli with mixed SF components should be considered to acquire the orientation map. A diffusion model image enhancement based on the difference map could further improve the map quality. In addition, the similar outcomes of achromatic and chromatic gratings indicate two alternative types of afferents from LGN, pooling in V1 to generate cue-invariant orientation selectivity.

Viral Envelope Evolution in Simian-HIV-Infected Neonate and Adult-Dam Pairs of Rhesus Macaques.

We recently demonstrated that Simian-HIV (SHIV)-infected neonate rhesus macaques (RMs) generated heterologous HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) with broadly-NAb (bNAb) characteristics at a higher frequency compared with their corresponding dam. Here, we characterized genetic diversity in Env sequences from four neonate or adult/dam RM pairs: in two pairs, neonate and dam RMs made heterologous HIV-1 NAbs; in one pair, neither the neonate nor the dam made heterologous HIV-1 NAbs; and in another pair, only the neonate made heterologous HIV-1 NAbs. Phylogenetic and sequence diversity analyses of longitudinal Envs revealed that a higher genetic diversity, within the host and away from the infecting SHIV strain, was correlated with heterologous HIV-1 NAb development. We identified 22 Env variable sites, of which 9 were associated with heterologous HIV-1 NAb development; 3/9 sites had mutations previously linked to HIV-1 Env bNAb development. These data suggested that viral diversity drives heterologous HIV-1 NAb development, and the faster accumulation of viral diversity in neonate RMs may be a potential mechanism underlying bNAb induction in pediatric populations. Moreover, these data may inform candidate Env immunogens to guide precursor B cells to bNAb status via vaccination by the Env-based selection of bNAb lineage members with the appropriate mutations associated with neutralization breadth.
