Serum reactome induced by Bordetella pertussis infection and Pertussis vaccines: qualitative differences in serum antibody recognition patterns revealed by peptide microarray analysis.

ABSTRACT: Pertussis (whooping cough) remains a public health problem despite extensive vaccination strategies. Better understanding of the host-pathogen interaction and the detailed B. pertussis (Bp) target recognition pattern will help in guided vaccine design. We characterized the specific epitope antigen recognition profiles of serum antibodies ('the reactome') induced by whooping cough and B. pertussis (Bp) vaccines from a case-control study conducted in 1996 in infants enrolled in a Bp vaccine trial in Sweden (Gustafsson, NEJM, 1996, 334, 349-355).Sera from children with whooping cough, vaccinated with Diphtheria Tetanus Pertussis (DTP) whole-cell (wc), acellular 5 (DPTa5), or with the 2 component (a2) vaccines and from infants receiving only DT (n=10 for each group) were tested with high-content peptide microarrays containing 17 Bp proteins displayed as linear (n=3175) peptide stretches. Slides were incubated with serum and peptide-IgG complexes detected with Cy5-labeled goat anti-human IgG and analyzed using a GenePix 4000B microarray scanner, followed by statistical analysis, using PAM (Prediction Analysis for Microarrays) and the identification of uniquely recognized peptide epitopes.367/3,085 (11.9%) peptides were recognized in 10/10 sera from children with whooping cough, 239 (7.7%) in DTPwc, 259 (8.4%) in DTPa5, 105 (3.4%) DTPa2, 179 (5.8%) in the DT groups. Recognition of strongly recognized peptides was similar between whooping cough and DPTwc, but statistically different between whooping cough vs. DTPa5 (p<0.05), DTPa2 and DT (p<0.001 vs. both) vaccines. 6/3,085 and 2/3,085 peptides were exclusively recognized in (10/10) sera from children with whooping cough and DTPa2 vaccination, respectively. DTPwc resembles more closely the whooping cough reactome as compared to acellular vaccines.We could identify a unique recognition signature common for each vaccination group (10/10 children). Peptide microarray technology allows detection of subtle differences in epitope signature responses and may help to guide rational vaccine development by the objective description of a clinically relevant immune response that confers protection against infectious pathogens.

Project description:IntroductionCommercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits designed for pertussis diagnostic purposes are frequently used to assess antibody responses to pertussis vaccines in clinical trials, but have limited accuracy and are not calibrated against international standards. We developed a new electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based multiplexed assay and compared its performance to two commercial Bordetella pertussis ELISA kits and to historical in-house ELISAs.MethodsThe ECL assay quantifies serum concentrations of antibodies against four B. pertussis antigens: pertussis toxin (PT), filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA), pertactin (PRN), and fimbrial agglutinogen (FIM). The assay was validated for precision, accuracy, dilutability, lower limit of quantification, and specificity. Sera from a clinical trial (CTRI/2016/11/007434) were used to compare the ECL assay to two commercial ELISA kits available from GenWay BioTech and Demeditec Diagnostics for accuracy, linearity, specificity, and concordance to both internal (WWO-2-043) and international (NIBSC 06/140) references. Sera from four clinical trials (NCT02587520, NCT00255047, NCT00347958, NCT01346293) were used to compare the concordance to clinical ELISAs. Informed consent was ensured prior to using any sera.ResultsPrecision, accuracy, dilutability, lower limit of quantification, and specificity were demonstrated for the ECL assay. Concordance between the ECL assay and established clinical ELISAs was met for antibody responses to PT, FIM, and PRN, but not for FHA. The ECL assay demonstrated higher accuracy and linearity than the ELISA kits. While concordance between the ECL and commercial kits was low, the ECL assay better distinguished between pre- and post-vaccination clinical samples.ConclusionThe new ECL assay was validated for the quantitative evaluation of anti-PT, anti-FHA, anti-FIM, and anti-PRN IgG antibodies in samples from clinical trials, and demonstrated equivalent or better performance than two commercially available ELISA kits.
