Persistent cellular immunity to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

ABSTRACT: SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for an ongoing pandemic that has affected millions of individuals around the globe. To gain further understanding of the immune response in recovered individuals, we measured T cell responses in paired samples obtained an average of 1.3 and 6.1 mo after infection from 41 individuals. The data indicate that recovered individuals show persistent polyfunctional SARS-CoV-2 antigen-specific memory that could contribute to rapid recall responses. Recovered individuals also show enduring alterations in relative overall numbers of CD4+ and CD8+ memory T cells, including expression of activation/exhaustion markers, and cell division.

Persistent Cellular Immunity to SARS-CoV-2 Infection.

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for an ongoing pandemic that affected millions of individuals around the globe. To gain further understanding of the immune response in recovered individuals we measured T cell responses in paired samples obtained an average of 1.3 and 6.1 months after infection from 41 individuals. The data indicate that recovered individuals show persistent polyfunctional SARS-CoV-2 antigen specific memory that could contribute to rapid recall responses. In addition, recovered individuals show enduring immune alterations in relative numbers of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells, expression of activation/exhaustion markers, and cell division. We show that SARS-CoV-2 infection elicits broadly reactive and highly functional memory T cell responses that persist 6 months after infection. In addition, recovered individuals show enduring immune alterations in CD4 + and CD8 + T cells compartments.

Protective Immunity and Persistent Lung Sequelae in Domestic Cats after SARS-CoV-2 Infection.

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 readily transmits between domestic cats. We found that domestic cats that recover from an initial infection might be protected from reinfection. However, we found long-term persistence of inflammation and other lung lesions after infection, despite a lack of clinical symptoms and limited viral replication in the lungs.

Control of complement-induced inflammatory responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection by anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies

Project description:Dysregulated immune responses contribute to the excessive and uncontrolled inflammation observed in severe COVID-19. However, how immunity to SARS-CoV-2 is induced and regulated remains unclear. Here we uncover a role of the complement system in the induction of innate and adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2. Complement rapidly opsonizes SARS-CoV-2 particles via the lectin pathway. Complement-opsonized SARS-CoV-2 efficiently induces type-I interferon and pro-inflammatory cytokine responses via activation of dendritic cells, which are inhibited by antibodies against the complement receptors (CR) 3 and 4. Serum from COVID-19 patients, or monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, attenuate innate and adaptive immunity induced by complement-opsonized SARS-CoV-2. Blocking of CD32, the FcγRII antibody receptor of dendritic cells, restores complement-induced immunity. These results suggest that opsonization of SARS-CoV-2 by complement is involved in the induction of innate and adaptive immunity to SARS-CoV-2 in the acute phase of infection. Subsequent antibody responses limit inflammation and restore immune homeostasis. These findings suggest that dysregulation of the complement system and FcγRII signaling may contribute to severe COVID-19.

Persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection and increasing viral variants in children and young adults with impaired humoral immunity.

Project description:There is increasing concern that persistent infection of SARS-CoV-2 within immunocompromised hosts could serve as a reservoir for mutation accumulation and subsequent emergence of novel strains with the potential to evade immune responses. We describe three patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who were persistently positive for SARS-CoV-2 by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Viral viability from longitudinally-collected specimens was assessed. Whole-genome sequencing and serological studies were performed to measure viral evolution and evidence of immune escape. We found compelling evidence of ongoing replication and infectivity for up to 162 days from initial positive by subgenomic RNA, single-stranded RNA, and viral culture analysis. Our results reveal a broad spectrum of infectivity, host immune responses, and accumulation of mutations, some with the potential for immune escape. Our results highlight the need to reassess infection control precautions in the management and care of immunocompromised patients. Routine surveillance of mutations and evaluation of their potential impact on viral transmission and immune escape should be considered.

Longitudinal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2-specific cellular and humoral immunity after natural infection or BNT162b2 vaccination.

Project description:The timing of the development of specific adaptive immunity after natural SARS-CoV-2 infection, and its relevance in clinical outcome, has not been characterized in depth. Description of the long-term maintenance of both cellular and humoral responses elicited by real-world anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is still scarce. Here we aimed to understand the development of optimal protective responses after SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination. We performed an early, longitudinal study of S1-, M- and N-specific IFN-γ and IL-2 T cell immunity and anti-S total and neutralizing antibodies in 88 mild, moderate or severe acute COVID-19 patients. Moreover, SARS-CoV-2-specific adaptive immunity was also analysed in 234 COVID-19 recovered subjects, 28 uninfected BNT162b2-vaccinees and 30 uninfected healthy controls. Upon natural infection, cellular and humoral responses were early and coordinated in mild patients, while weak and inconsistent in severe patients. The S1-specific cellular response measured at hospital arrival was an independent predictive factor against severity. In COVID-19 recovered patients, four to seven months post-infection, cellular immunity was maintained but antibodies and neutralization capacity declined. Finally, a robust Th1-driven immune response was developed in uninfected BNT162b2-vaccinees. Three months post-vaccination, the cellular response was comparable, while the humoral response was consistently stronger, to that measured in COVID-19 recovered patients. Thus, measurement of both humoral and cellular responses provides information on prognosis and protection from infection, which may add value for individual and public health recommendations.

SARS-CoV-2 infection induces transcriptomic alterations specific to activation of innate immunity and cellular distress.

Project description:In the grips of the 2019-2020 SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the pathogenisis of the virus has been shown to induce sharp responses from the immune system of infected hosts and can result in severe/fatal pulmonary distress. To understand how the virus can provoke such responses in infected hosts we infected golden hamsters with validated SARS-CoV-2 clinical isolates from 5 patients to understand the dynamic changes and functionality of induced gene expression.

A Glimpse into the Diverse Cellular Immunity against SARS-CoV-2.

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-specific cellular immune response has been shown to play a critical role in preventing severe illness or death in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 or its variants. Given the multiple T-cell epitopes shared by wild-type virus and its variants, we hypothesized that vaccines that target multiple T-cell epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 may provide a "universal protection" against the wild-type virus as well as its variants, even the heavily mutated ones. To test this, we assessed SARS-CoV-2-specific T-cell precursors in healthy individuals using overlapping peptide pools of SARS-CoV-2 structural and functional proteins, including spike (S), membrane (M), envelope (E), nucleocapsid (N), and protease (P) proteins as target antigens. Diverse T-cell precursor frequencies specific to these viral antigens were detected in healthy individuals, including high, medium, low, and no responders. This was further confirmed by efficient induction of anti-SARS-CoV-2 T-cell immune responses using ex vivo dendritic cell (DC)/T cell coculture. The results demonstrated T-cell responses consistent with the precursor frequencies of each of the individuals tested. Importantly, the combination of all five viral peptide pools induced the strongest cellular immune response, and further, after a DC-peptides re-stimulation, even the no responders developed an increased anti-viral T-cell response. These analyses recapitulate the presence of a broad anti-SARS-CoV-2 cellular immunity even in an immune naïve population, which could be enhanced by antigen presenting cells presenting the overlapping antigenic peptides. Given the critical role of cellular immunity in COVID-19 protection, these results have important implications for vaccine design and immunotherapy in fighting SARS-CoV-2 and its variants.

Cellular Immunity in COVID-19 Convalescents with PCR-Confirmed Infection but with Undetectable SARS-CoV-2–Specific IgG

Project description:We investigated immune responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) among a group of convalescent, potential blood donors in Germany who had PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. Sixty days after onset of symptoms, 13/78 (17%) study participants had borderline or negative results to an ELISA detecting IgG against the S1 protein of SARS-CoV-2. We analyzed participants with PCR-confirmed infection who had strong antibody responses (ratio >3) as positive controls and participants without symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection and without household contact with infected patients as negative controls. Using interferon-γ ELISpot, we observed that 78% of PCR-positive volunteers with undetectable antibodies showed T cell immunity against SARS-CoV-2. We observed a similar frequency (80%) of T-cell immunity in convalescent donors with strong antibody responses but did not detect immunity in negative controls. We concluded that, in convalescent patients with undetectable SARS-CoV-2 IgG, immunity may be mediated through T cells.
