Differences in SARS-CoV-2-specific immune responses have been observed between individuals following natural infection or vaccination. In addition to already known factors, such as age, sex, COVID-19 severity, comorbidity, vaccination status, hybrid immunity, and duration of infection, inter-individual variations SARS-CoV-2 may, part, be explained by structural differences brought about genetic variation the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules responsible for presentation antigens T effector cells.

Antibodies capable of neutralising SARS-CoV-2 are well studied, but Fc receptor-dependent antibody activities that can also significantly impact the course infection have not been studied in such depth. As most vaccines induce only anti-spike antibodies, here we investigated spike-specific antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). Vaccination produced antibodies weakly induced ADCC, however, from individuals who were infected prior to vaccination ('hybrid' immunity) elicited strong ADCC. Quantitative and qualitative aspects humoral immunity contributed this capability, with skewing IgG production towards S2, S1 hybrid evoking responses against both domains. targeting spike domains support NK cell activation, three regions reactivity outside receptor-binding domain (RBD) corresponding potent Consequently, ADCC by ancestral antigen was conserved variants containing neutralisation escape mutations RBD.

The recent emergence of a number new SARS-CoV-2 variants resulting from recombination between two distinct parental lineages or sub-lineages within the same lineage has sparked debate regarding potential enhanced viral infectivity and immune escape. Among these, XBB, recombinant BA.2.10 BA.2.75, caused major concern in some countries due to its rapid increase prevalence. In this study, we tested XBB escape capacity mRNA-vaccine-induced (BNT162b2) neutralising antibodies compared B.1 ancestral another co-circulating variant (B.1.1.529 BA.5) by analysing sera collected 30 days after second dose 92 healthcare workers.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) impacted healthcare, workforce, and worldwide socioeconomics. Multi-dose mono- or bivalent mRNA vaccine regimens have shown high efficacy in protection against SARS-CoV-2 its emerging variants with varying degrees of efficacy. Amino acid changes, primarily receptor-binding domain (RBD), result selection for viral infectivity, disease severity, immune evasion. Therefore, many studies centered around neutralizing antibodies that target RBD their generation achieved through infection vaccination. Here, we conducted a unique longitudinal study, analyzing effects three-dose regimen exclusively using monovalent BNT162b2 (Pfizer/BioNTech) vaccine, systematically administered to nine previously uninfected (naïve) individuals. We compare changes humoral antibody responses across entire spike glycoprotein (S) high-throughput phage display technique (VirScan). Our data demonstrate two doses vaccination alone can achieve broadest highest magnitudes anti-S response. Moreover, present evidence novel highly boosted non-RBD epitopes strongly correlate neutralization recapitulate independent findings. These vaccine-boosted could facilitate multi-valent development drug discovery.

This protection is mediated through cellular immunity, particularly CD8+ T cells, lasts at least a few months. Although several studies documented rapidly waning levels of vaccine-elicited antibodies, kinetics cell responses not been well defined. Methods Interferon (IFN)-γ enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISpot) assay intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) were utilized assess immune (in isolated cells or whole peripheral blood mononuclear PBMCs) pooled peptides spanning spike.
