Immunosuppressed individuals, such as people living with HIV (PLWH), remain vulnerable to severe COVID-19. We analyzed the persistence of specific SARS-CoV-2 humoral and cellular immune responses in a retrospective, cross-sectional study PLWH on antiretroviral therapy. Among 104 participants, 70.2% had anti-S IgG antibodies, 55.8% significant neutralizing activity against Omicron variant surrogate virus neutralization test. Only 38.5% were vaccinated (8.76 ± 4.1 months prior), all displaying IgG, 75% antibodies IgA. Overall, 29.8% no serologic markers; they displayed significantly lower CD4 counts higher viral load. Severe immunosuppression (present 12.5% participants) was linked levels detectable (p = 0.0003), IgA < 0.0001) lack 0.0001). T-cell present 86.7% tested even those lacking serological markers. In without immunosuppression, persisted for up 9 post-infection or vaccination. Advanced led diminished but retained immunity.

Intramuscularly administered induce serum neutralizing antibodies (NAbs), their ability to boost mucosal immune responses remains be determined. In this study, we show that the XBB.1.5 messenger RNA (mRNA) boosters result in increased neutralization multiple acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants humans, including dominant circulating variant JN.1. contrast, found mRNA booster did not augment NAbs or IgA responses, although SARS-CoV-2 XBB infection substantially antibody responses. These data demonstrate current enhance peripheral do robustly increase Our highlight a separation between and systems humans emphasize importance developing next-generation immunity protect virus infections.

Abstract Although IgA + long-lived plasma cells (LLPCs) generated following mucosal viral infection provide durable protection against reinfection, little is known about their generation. Here, we show that oral RV induces gut-resident LLPCs produce highly mutated protective IgA. Unlike RV-specific IgG LLPCs, were independently of MHCII expression by dendritic – rather B was both necessary and sufficient. cell also sufficient to induce a unique population T-bet follicular helper T (T FH 1) which crucial for LLPC accumulation in the gut via IFNγ- CXCR3-dependent mechanisms. Similar infection, 1 required influenza-specific response. However, unlike not suggesting operation site-specific priming Collectively, our data reveal unconventionally primed support responses infections.

Although all participants had detectable antibodies Wuhan, proportion with variants was decreased, were lower.

Generation of mucosal immune responses, including IgA, could be potential benefit vaccine efficacy; however, limited evidence exists regarding the production antibodies following administration current mRNA vaccines young children. Methods We measured levels against from a cohort children under 5 years age (n = 24) undergoing (serially collected, matched serum and saliva samples) or in convenience sample presenting pediatric emergency department (nasal swabs, n 103). Furthermore, we assessed salivary nasal samples ability induce spike-mediated neutrophil extracellular traps (NET) formation. Results Longitudinal analysis post-vaccine revealed induction SARS-CoV-2–specific IgG but not IgA. Similarly, IgA was only observed obtained previously infected with without vaccination, vaccinated history infection. In addition, oronasopharyngeal prior infection were able trigger enhanced NET formation, played key role driving this process.

Next-generation T-cell-directed vaccines for COVID-19 focus on establishing lasting T-cell immunity against current and emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants. Precise identification of conserved epitopes is critical designing effective vaccines. Here we introduce a comprehensive computational framework incorporating machine learning algorithm—MHCvalidator—to enhance mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics sensitivity.

ABSTRACT Background SARS-CoV-2 infection elicits distinct clinical features in children and adults. Profiling the adaptive immune response following is essential to better understand characterize these differences. Methods Humoral cell-mediated responses from unvaccinated pediatric adult participants were analyzed asymptomatic or mild non-Omicron infection. Levels of IgG IgA targeting spike (S), receptor-binding domain (RBD), nucleocapsid (N) proteins measured, while neutralizing antibody (nAb) titers assessed against three viral strains (Wuhan, Omicron BA.1 BA.4/BA.5). Specific T-cell memory investigated by quantifying interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) secreting cells after stimulation with ancestral variant SARS-CoV-2, seasonal human β- coronaviruses (HCoV)-OC43 -HKU1. Results The study comprised 28 (3 17 [median=10] years old) adults (19 62 [median=42]). At a mean time seven months (± 2.8 months) infection, mounted comparable levels S RBD, as well similar neutralization capacity. However, displayed weaker cellular SARS- CoV-2 than adults, median 88 [28-184] spot forming units per million PBMCs compared 208 [141-340] (***, P < .001). In children, level IFN-γ corresponds that coronaviruses. Conclusion Long-term are enhanced who demonstrate equivalent other HCoV. HIGHLIGHTS Children infected show binding There notable differences intensity SARS-CoV- 2 between have more pronounced immunodominance towards versus non- at post-infection contrast, globally reduced but alike β-coronaviruses.
