ABSTRACT A total of 5011 adult volunteers attending vaccination centers in different regions Colombia were enrolled a 1‐year prospective observational cohort study to evaluate the immunogenicity and effectiveness SARS‐CoV‐2‐based vaccines as part National Vaccine Program established contain COVID‐19 pandemic. Following informed consent, 5,011 participants underwent sociodemographic survey PCR testing assess SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. Blood samples collected, serum fractions obtained from participant subsample ( n = 3441) at six‐time points virus‐specific IgG responses Spike protein, its Receptor Binding Domain, Nucleoprotein by ELISA. Additionally, antibody‐neutralizing activity was evaluated using cPass neutralization kit. Most (95.8%; 4802) received between one Ad26.

Throughout study, only 8.76% 439) tested positive for PCR. Notably, all seroconverted antibodies, high seropositivity rates S (99.8%; 4795), RBD (99.7%; 1691), N (92.7%; 3072) proteins. Moreover, significant (92%–97%) neutralizing observed circulating variants. This highlights importance assessing duration response elicited infection, antibody potential surrogate marker protection.

Abstract IMPORTANCE Prior studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines in children and adolescents. However, benefits vaccination these age groups with prior infection remain underexplored. OBJECTIVE To evaluate preventing reinfection various Omicron subvariants (BA.1/2, BA.4/5, XBB, later) among 5- to 17-year-olds SARS-CoV-2 infection. DESIGN A target trial emulation through nested designs distinct study periods. SETTING The utilized data from Research COVID Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) initiative, a national electronic health record (EHR) database comprising 37 U.S. children’s hospitals institutions. PARTICIPANTS Individuals aged 5-17 years documented history start date during specific variant-dominant period (Delta, BA.1/2, or BA.4/5) who received subsequent dose vaccine periods were compared those did not receive period. Those infected within Delta-Omicron composite (December 1, 2021, December 31, 2021) excluded. was January 2022, August 30, 2023, focused on adolescents 12 17 5 11 years.

The rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 and its continuing impact on human health has prompted the need for effective development monoclonal antibody therapeutics. In this study, we investigate polyclonal antibodies in serum B cells from whole blood three donors with immunity to find high-affinity anti-SARS-CoV-2 escape variants. Serum IgG were selected by their affinity receptor-binding domain (RBD) non-RBD sites spike protein Omicron subvariant B.1.1.529 each donor. Antibodies analyzed bottom-up mass spectrometry, matched single- bulk-cell sequenced repertoires observed recombinantly expressed, characterized assess binding, cross-reactivity between different variants, capacity inhibit RBD binding host protein.

Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) is a phenomenon in which antibodies enhance subsequent viral infections rather than preventing them. Sub-optimal levels of neutralizing individuals infected with dengue virus are known to be associated severe disease upon reinfection different serotype. For Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus type-2 infection, three types ADE have been proposed: (1) Fc receptor-dependent infection cells expressing receptors, such as macrophages by anti-spike antibodies, (2) receptor-independent epithelial and (3) cytokine production anti-nucleocapsid antibodies. This review focuses on the induced examining its potential role COVID-19 during contribution post-acute sequelae COVID-19, i.e., prolonged symptoms lasting at least months after acute phase disease. We also discuss protective effects recently identified that neutralize Omicron variants.

The SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein has undergone significant evolution, enhancing both receptor binding and immune evasion. In this review, we summarize ongoing efforts to develop antibodies targeting various epitopes of the S protein, focusing on their neutralization potency, breadth, escape mechanisms. Antibodies receptor-binding site (RBS) typically exhibit high neutralizing potency but are frequently evaded by mutations in variants. contrast, conserved regions, such as S2 stem helix fusion peptide, broader reactivity generally lower potency. However, several broadly have demonstrated exceptional efficacy against emerging variants, including latest omicron subvariants, underscoring potential vulnerable sites RBS-A RBS-D/CR3022. We also highlight public classes different protein. targeted present opportunities for germline-targeting vaccine strategies. Overall, developing escape-resistant, potent effective vaccines remains crucial combating future This review emphasizes importance identifying key utilizing antibody affinity maturation inform therapeutic design.
