Antibody response to common human viruses is shaped by genetic factors

Using a large twin study we found strong evidence that extent of antibody response to six common human viruses was influenced by genetic factors. In contrast, common environmental factors contributed more to inter-individual variation in serostatus than antibody response. (Source: Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology)
