Abstract The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants and potentially other highly pathogenic sarbecoviruses in the future highlights need for pan-sarbecovirus vaccines. Here, we discovered a new STING agonist, CF501, found that CF501-adjuvanted RBD-Fc vaccine (CF501/RBD-Fc) elicited significantly stronger neutralizing antibody (nAb) T cell responses than Alum- cGAMP-adjuvanted mice. Vaccination rabbits rhesus macaques (nonhuman primates, NHPs) with CF501/RBD-Fc exceptionally potent nAb against its nine 41 S-mutants, SARS-CoV bat SARSr-CoVs. CF501/RBD-Fc-immunized hACE2-transgenic mice were almost completely protected challenge, even 6 months after initial immunization. NHPs immunized single dose produced high titers nAbs. also exhibited durable humoral cellular immune showed remarkably reduced viral load upper lower airways upon challenge at 108 days post final Thus, can be further developed as novel to combat current outbreaks sarbecovirus diseases.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant of concern evades antibody-mediated immunity that comes from vaccination or infection with earlier variants due to accumulation numerous spike mutations. To understand the antigenic shift, we determined cryo–electron microscopy and x-ray crystal structures protein receptor-binding domain bound broadly neutralizing sarbecovirus monoclonal antibody (mAb) S309 (the parent mAb sotrovimab) human ACE2 receptor. We provide a blueprint for understanding marked reduction binding other therapeutic mAbs leads dampened activity. Remodeling interactions between likely explains enhanced affinity host receptor relative ancestral virus.

A novel variant of concern (VOC) named CAL.20C (B.1.427/B.1.429), which was originally detected in California, carries spike glycoprotein mutations S13I the signal peptide, W152C N-terminal domain (NTD), and L452R receptor-binding (RBD). Plasma from individuals vaccinated with a Wuhan-1 isolate-based messenger RNA vaccine or convalescent exhibited neutralizing titers that were reduced 2- to 3.5-fold against B.1.427/B.1.429 relative wild-type pseudoviruses. The mutation activity 14 34 RBD-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). resulted total loss neutralization for 10 NTD-specific mAbs because NTD antigenic supersite remodeled by shift peptide cleavage site formation new disulfide bond, as revealed mass spectrometry structural studies.

Abstract With the constantly mutating of SARS-CoV-2 and emergence Variants Concern (VOC), implementation vaccination is critically important. Existing vaccines mainly include inactivated, live attenuated, viral vector, protein subunit, RNA, DNA, virus-like particle (VLP) vaccines. Viral vector vaccines, subunit mRNA may induce additional cellular or humoral immune regulations, including Th cell responses germinal center responses, form relevant memory cells, greatly improving their efficiency. However, some be associated with complications like thrombocytopenia myocarditis, raising concerns about safety these COVID-19 Here, we systemically assess efficacy possible different effects on pregnant women, elderly, people diseases acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), transplant recipients, cancer patients. Based current analysis, governments agencies are recommended to continue advance vaccine immunization process. Simultaneously, special attention should paid health status timely treatment complications, development, ensuring lives In addition, available measures such as mix-and-match vaccination, developing new nanoparticle optimizing adjuvant improve could considered.

How the Delta variant evades defenses In course of COVID-19 epidemic, variants severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continue to emerge, some which evade immunity or increase transmission. late 2020, and Kappa were detected, became globally dominant by June 2021. McCallum et al . show that vaccine-elicited serum-neutralizing activity is reduced against these variants. Based on biochemistry structural studies, authors mutations in domain binds ACE2 receptor abrogate binding monoclonal antibodies but do not improve binding, suggesting they emerged escape immune recognition. Remodeling N-terminal allows recognition most neutralizing target it. The work could guide development next-generation vaccines antibody therapies. —VV

Several severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines are being deployed, but the global need greatly exceeds supply, and different formulations might be required for specific populations. Here we report Day 42 interim safety immunogenicity data from an observer-blinded, dose escalation, randomized controlled study of a virus-like particle vaccine candidate produced in plants that displays SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein (CoVLP: NCT04450004 ). The co-primary outcomes were short-term tolerability/safety CoVLP assessed by neutralizing antibody (NAb) cellular responses. Secondary this ongoing include assessments up to 12 months after vaccination. Adults (18-55 years, n = 180) at two sites Quebec, Canada, receive intramuscular doses (3.75 μg, 7.5 15 μg) 21 d apart, alone or adjuvanted with AS03 CpG1018.
