Transcriptomic analysis of human B cell responses to vaccination

ABSTRACT: Analysis of the gene expression profiles of naÃ¯ve B cells, resting memory B cells (MBCs), activated B cells (ABCs) and antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) isolated from peripheral blood one week following influenza vaccination. Upon antigen exposure B cells eventually bifurcate into two distinct lineages, plasmablasts and memory B cells. We previously reported that plasmablasts or antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) could be transiently detected in blood shortly after infection or vaccination of humans. Here, we define the phenotype and the transcriptional program of a novel human antigen-specific B cell subset, referred to as activated B cells (ABCs). ABCs do not spontaneously secrete antibodies and possess a unique transcriptional profile that distinguishes them from ASCs and resting memory B cells. Clonal lineages present among day 7 ABCs persisted in blood for up to three months post-influenza immunization indicating that ABCs may be destined to join the long-term memory B cell pool. ABCs and ASCs can be clearly distinguished in blood following influenza and Ebola virus infections. Interrogating ABCs will expand our understanding of the differentiation, maturation and longevity of human B cell responses. Total RNA was isolated from 10,000 cells of each population.

Transcriptome differences in FCRL5 positive and negative Influenza-specific memory B cells

Project description:We examined the transcriptional differences between circulating B cell subsets post-vaccination. Using FCRL5 as a marker of Tbet expressing B cells, we sorted FCRL5+ (Tbet+) and FCRL5- (Tbet-) memory B cells, naïve B cells, and antibody secreting plasmablasts at day 7 and day 14 post-vaccination. Additionally, we used H1 B cell tetramers to track cells responding to the influenza vaccine. These data provide insights into the transcriptional programming of distinct B cell subsets that respond to influenza vaccination.

Accessible chromatin differences in FCRL5 positive and negative influenza-specific memory B cells

Project description:We examined the accessible chromatin differences between circulating B cell subsets post-vaccination. Using FCRL5 as a marker of Tbet expressing B cells, we sorted FCRL5+ (Tbet+) and FCRL5- (Tbet-) memory B cells, and antibody secreting plasmablasts at day 7 and day 14 post-vaccination. Additionally, we used H1 B cell tetramers to track cells responding to the influenza vaccine in a subset of samples. These data provide insights into the accessible chromatin landscape of distinct B cell subsets that respond to influenza vaccination.

High-throughput Single-cell Profiling of B cell Responses Following Inactivated Influenza Vaccination in Young and Older Adults (single-cell BCR)

Project description:Seasonal influenza contributes to a substantial disease burden annually, resulting in approximately 10 million hospital visits and 50 thousand deaths in a typical year in the US. 90% of the annual mortality from influenza occurs in people over the age of 65. While influenza vaccination is the best protection against the virus, it is less effective for the elderly. This may be due to differences in the quantity or type of B cells induced by vaccination in older individuals. To investigate this possibility, we leveraged recent development in single-cell technology that allows for simultaneous measurement of both gene expression profile and the B cell receptor (BCR) at single-cell resolution. Pre- and post-vaccination peripheral blood B cells were sorted from three young and three older adults who responded to the inactivated influenza vaccine and were profiled using single-cell RNAseq with paired BCR sequencing. At pre-vaccination, we observed a higher somatic hypermutation frequency and a higher abundance of activated B cells in older adults than in young adults. Following vaccination, young adults mounted a more clonal response than older adults. The response involved a mix of plasmablasts, activated B cells, and resting memory B cells in both age groups. The response in young adults was dominated by expansion in plasmablasts, while the response in older adults also involved activated B cells. We observed a consistent change in gene expression in plasmablasts after vaccination between age groups but not in the activated B cells. These quantitative and qualitative differences in the B cell response may provide insights into the age-related change of influenza vaccination response.

IgG profiling using AIT’s 16k protein microarray’ for elucidating the IgG profile of a memory-B cells and a “Novel” cell population

Project description:Plasma cells are not restricted to the CD27+ phenotype: characterization of CD27-CD43+ antibody secreting cells. Circulating antibody secreting cells are present in peripheral blood of healthy individuals reflecting continued activity of the humoral immune system. Antibody secreting cells typically express CD27. We describe and characterize a small population of antibody secreting class switched CD19+CD43+ B cells that lack expression of CD27 in peripheral blood of healthy subjects. Class switched CD27-CD43+ B cells possess characteristics of conventional plasmablasts as they spontaneously secrete antibodies, are morphological similar to antibody secreting cells, show downregulation of B cell differentiation markers, and have a gene expression profile related to conventional plasmablasts. Despite these similarities, we observed differences in IgA and IgG subclass distribution, expression of homing markers, replication history, frequency of somatic hypermutation and antibody response to vaccination. Their frequency is altered in immune-mediated disorders. In order to study the antibody signature we evaluated immune reactivity to 7390 human proteins by protein microarray.

Non-classical CD45RBlo memory B-cells are the majority of circulating antigen-specific B-cells following mRNA vaccination and COVID-19 infection.

Project description:Resting memory B-cells can be divided into classical and non-classical groups based on differential expression of markers such as CD27 and CD11c, while activated memory B-cells express a combination of markers, making their ontogeny hard to determine. Here by longitudinal analysis of COVID-19, bacterial sepsis, and BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine recipients by mass cytometry and CITE-seq we describe a three-branch structure of resting B-cell memory consisting of “classical” CD45RB⁺ memory and two branches of CD45RB^lo memory further defined by expression of CD23 and CD11c respectively. Stable differences in CD45RB upon activation allowed tracking of activated B-cells and plasmablasts derived from CD45RB⁺ classical and CD45RB^lo non-classical memory B-cells. In both COVID-19 patients and mRNA vaccination, CD45RB^lo B-cells formed the majority of SARS-CoV2 specific memory B-cells while CD45RB⁺ memory was most strongly activated by bacterial Sepsis. These results suggest that diverse non-classical CD45RB^lo memory B-cells consisting of branches of CD11c⁺Tbet⁺ and CD23⁺ fractions form a critical part of responses to viral infection and vaccination.

Memory B cells dominate the early antibody-secreting cell response to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination in naïve individuals independently of their antibody affinity

Project description:Memory B cells (MBCs) formed over the individual’s lifetime constitute nearly half of the adult peripheral blood B cell repertoire in humans. To assess their response to novel antigens, we tracked the origin and followed the differentiation paths of MBCs in the early anti-S response to mRNA vaccination in SARS-CoV-2-naïve individuals on single-cell and monoclonal antibody level. Newly generated and pre-existing MBCs differed in their differentiation paths despite similar levels of SARS-CoV-2 and common corona virus S-reactivity. Pre-existing highly mutated MBCs showed no signs of germinal center re-entry and rapidly developed into mature antibody secreting cells (ASCs). In contrast, newly generated MBCs derived from naïve precursors showed strong signs of antibody affinity maturation before differentiating into ASCs. Thus, although pre-existing human MBCs have an intrinsic propensity to differentiate into ASCs, the quality of the anti-S antibody and MBC response improved through the clonal selection and affinity maturation of naïve precursors.

Affinity maturation broadens influenza vaccine-induced antibody responses in humans [gex]

Project description:Influenza virus vaccination remains the best strategy for combating virus infection, but vaccine efficacy is highly variable. An ideal influenza vaccine must have two attributes: one, it should be capable of inducing broadly cross-reactive antibodies that can neutralize diverse influenza virus strains; and two, it must induce long-lived antibody responses to maintain protective immunity for extended periods. Germinal center (GC) reactions are the major sites where diversification and affinity maturation of B cells occur. Whether a persistent GC response could expand the breadth of responding B cell clones following influenza vaccination in humans remains unknown. Here, we show that influenza virus vaccine-specific GC B cells persist for over nine weeks post vaccination in two out of seven individuals. These late vaccine-specific GC B cells exhibited increased somatic hypermutation (SHM) of their B cell receptors compared to early vaccine-specific GC B cells. After re-immunization with seasonal influenza virus vaccine, individuals with a persistent GC engaged vaccine-specific plasmablasts (PBs) with higher SHM frequency. Tracking the maturation of three clonally related GC B cell lineages over time revealed that late GC B cells had receptors that recognized and neutralized heterologous influenza virus strains. Thus, SHM induced by persistent GCs can broaden the antibody response to influenza virus vaccination. This indicates that seasonal influenza virus vaccination in humans can induce broadly cross-reactive antibodies that target diverse influenza virus strains.
