Successive site translocating inoculation potentiates DNA/recombinant vaccinia vaccination.

ABSTRACT: DNA vaccines have advantages over traditional vaccine modalities; however the relatively low immunogenicity restrains its translation into clinical use. Further optimizations are needed to get the immunogenicity of DNA vaccine closer to the level required for human use. Here we show that intramuscularly inoculating into a different limb each time significantly improves the immunogenicities of both DNA and recombinant vaccinia vaccines during multiple vaccinations, compared to repeated vaccination on the same limb. We term this strategy successive site translocating inoculation (SSTI). SSTI could work in synergy with genetic adjuvant and DNA prime-recombinant vaccinia boost regimen. By comparing in vivo antigen expression, we found that SSTI avoided the specific inhibition of in vivo antigen expression, which was observed in the limbs being repeatedly inoculated. Employing in vivo T cell depletion and passive IgG transfer, we delineated that the inhibition was not mediated by CD8(+) T cells but by specific antibodies. Finally, by using C3(-/-) mouse model and in vivo NK cells depletion, we identified that specific antibodies negatively regulated the in vivo antigen expression primarily in a complement depended way.

Successive Site Translocating Inoculation Improved T Cell Responses Elicited by a DNA Vaccine Encoding SARS-CoV-2 S Protein.

Project description:A variety of methods have been explored to increase delivery efficiencies for DNA vaccine. However, the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines has not been satisfactorily improved. Unlike most of the previous attempts, we provided evidence suggesting that changing the injection site successively (successively site-translocated inoculation, SSTI) could significantly enhance the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines in a previous study. To simplify the strategy and to evaluate its impact on candidate SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, we immunized mice with either a SARS-CoV-2 spike-based DNA vaccine or a spike protein subunit vaccine via three different inoculation strategies. Our data demonstrated that S protein specific antibody responses elicited by the DNA vaccine or the protein subunit vaccine showed no significant difference among different inoculation strategies. Of interest, compared with the conventional site fixed inoculation (SFI), both successive site-translocating inoculation (SSTI) and the simplified translocating inoculation (STI) strategy improved specific T cell responses elicited by the DNA vaccine. More specifically, the SSTI strategy significantly improved both the monofunctional (IFN-γ+IL-2-TNF-α-CD8+) and the multifunctional (IFN-γ+IL-2-TNF-α+CD8+, IFN-γ+IL-2-TNF-α+CD4+, IFN-γ+IL-2+TNF-α+CD4+) T cell responses, while the simplified translocating inoculation (STI) strategy significantly improved the multifunctional CD8+ (IFN-γ+IL-2-TNF-α+CD8+, IFN-γ+IL-2+TNF-α+CD8+) and CD4+ (IFN-γ+IL-2-TNF-α+CD4+, IFN-γ+IL-2+TNF-α+CD4+) T cell responses. The current study confirmed that changing the site of intra muscular injection can significantly improve the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines.

Vaccination with attenuated simian immunodeficiency virus by DNA inoculation.

Project description:Delivering attenuated lentivirus vaccines as proviral DNA would be simple and inexpensive. Inoculation of macaques with wild-type simian immunodeficiency virus strain mac239 (SIV(mac239)) DNA or SIV(mac239) DNA containing a single deletion in the 3' nef-long terminal repeat overlap region (nef/LTR) led to sustained SIV infections and AIDS. Injection of SIV(mac239) DNA containing identical deletions in both the 5' LTR and 3' nef/LTR resulted in attenuated SIV infections and substantial protection against subsequent mucosal SIV(mac251) challenge.

Stable antigen is most effective for eliciting CD8+ T-cell responses after DNA vaccination and infection with recombinant vaccinia virus in vivo.

Project description:The induction of strong CD8(+) T-cell responses against infectious diseases and cancer has remained a major challenge. Depending on the source of antigen and the infectious agent, priming of CD8(+) T cells requires direct and/or cross-presentation of antigenic peptides on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules by professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs). However, both pathways show distinct preferences concerning antigen stability. Whereas direct presentation was shown to efficiently present peptides derived from rapidly degraded proteins, cross-presentation is dependent on long-lived antigen species. In this report, we analyzed the role of antigen stability on DNA vaccination and recombinant vaccinia virus (VV) infection using altered versions of the same antigen. The long-lived nucleoprotein (NP) of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) can be targeted for degradation by N-terminal fusion to ubiquitin or, as we show here, to the ubiquitin-like modifier FAT10. Direct presentation by cells either transfected with NP-encoding plasmids or infected with recombinant VV in vitro was enhanced in the presence of short-lived antigens. In vivo, however, the highest induction of NP-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses was achieved in the presence of long-lived NP. Our experiments provide evidence that targeting antigens for proteasomal degradation does not improve the immunogenicity of DNA vaccines and recombinant VVs. Rather, it is the long-lived antigen that is superior for the efficient activation of MHC class I-restricted immune responses in vivo. Hence, our results suggest a dominant role for antigen cross-priming in DNA vaccination and recombinant VV infection.

Injection site vaccinology of a recombinant vaccinia-based vector reveals diverse innate immune signatures.

Project description:Poxvirus systems have been extensively used as vaccine vectors. Herein a RNA-Seq analysis of intramuscular injection sites provided detailed insights into host innate immune responses, as well as expression of vector and recombinant immunogen genes, after vaccination with a new multiplication defective, vaccinia-based vector, Sementis Copenhagen Vector. Chikungunya and Zika virus immunogen mRNA and protein expression was associated with necrosing skeletal muscle cells surrounded by mixed cellular infiltrates. The multiple adjuvant signatures at 12 hours post-vaccination were dominated by TLR3, 4 and 9, STING, MAVS, PKR and the inflammasome. Th1 cytokine signatures were dominated by IFN?, TNF and IL1?, and chemokine signatures by CCL5 and CXCL12. Multiple signatures associated with dendritic cell stimulation were evident. By day seven, vaccine transcripts were absent, and cell death, neutrophil, macrophage and inflammation annotations had abated. No compelling arthritis signatures were identified. Such injection site vaccinology approaches should inform refinements in poxvirus-based vector design.

An Equine Model for Vaccination against a Hepacivirus: Insights into Host Responses to E2 Recombinant Protein Vaccination and Subsequent Equine Hepacivirus Inoculation.

Project description:Equine hepacivirus (EqHV) is the closest known genetic homologue of hepatitis C virus. An effective prophylactic vaccine is currently not available for either of these hepaciviruses. The equine as potential surrogate model for hepacivirus vaccine studies was investigated, while equine host responses following vaccination with EqHV E2 recombinant protein and subsequent EqHV inoculation were elucidated. Four ponies received prime and booster vaccinations (recombinant protein, adjuvant) four weeks apart (day -55 and -27). Two control ponies received adjuvant only. Ponies were inoculated with EqHV RNA-positive plasma on day 0. Blood samples and liver biopsies were collected over 26 weeks (day -70 to +112). Serum analyses included detection of EqHV RNA, isotypes of E2-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG), nonstructural protein 3-specific IgG, haematology, serum biochemistry, and metabolomics. Liver tissue analyses included EqHV RNA detection, RNA sequencing, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and fluorescent in situ hybridization. Al-though vaccination did not result in complete protective immunity against experimental EqHV inoculation, the majority of vaccinated ponies cleared the serum EqHV RNA earlier than the control ponies. The majority of vaccinated ponies appeared to recover from the EqHV-associated liver insult earlier than the control ponies. The equine model shows promise as a surrogate model for future hepacivirus vaccine research.

A consecutive priming-boosting vaccination of mice with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) gag/pol DNA and recombinant vaccinia virus strain DIs elicits effective anti-SIV immunity.

Project description:To evaluate immunity induced by a novel DNA prime-boost regimen, we constructed a DNA plasmid encoding the gag and pol genes from simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) (SIVgag/pol DNA), in addition to a replication-deficient vaccinia virus strain DIs recombinant expressing SIV gag and pol genes (rDIsSIVgag/pol). In mice, priming with SIVgag/pol DNA, followed by rDIsSIVgag/pol induced an SIV-specific lymphoproliferative response that was mediated by a CD4+-T-lymphocyte subset. Immunization with either vaccine alone was insufficient to induce high levels of proliferation or Th1 responses in the animals. The prime-boost regimen also induced SIV Gag-specific cellular responses based on gamma interferon secretion, as well as cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte responses. Thus, the regimen of DNA priming and recombinant DIs boosting induced Th1-type cell-mediated immunity, which was associated with resistance to viral challenge with wild-type vaccinia virus expressing SIVgag/pol, suggesting that this new regimen may hold promise as a safe and effective vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus type 1.

Generation of Recombinant Nucleosomes Containing Site-Specific DNA Damage.

Project description:Eukaryotic DNA exists in chromatin, where the genomic DNA is packaged into a fundamental repeating unit known as the nucleosome. In this chromatin environment, our genomic DNA is constantly under attack by exogenous and endogenous stressors that can lead to DNA damage. Importantly, this DNA damage must be repaired to prevent the accumulation of mutations and ensure normal cellular function. To date, most in-depth biochemical studies of DNA repair proteins have been performed in the context of free duplex DNA. However, chromatin can serve as a barrier that DNA repair enzymes must navigate in order find, access, and process DNA damage in the cell. To facilitate future studies of DNA repair in chromatin, we describe a protocol for generating nucleosome containing site-specific DNA damage that can be utilized for a variety of in vitro applications. This protocol describes several key steps including how to generate damaged DNA oligonucleotides, the expression and purification of recombinant histones, the refolding of histone complexes, and the reconstitution of nucleosomes containing site-specific DNA damage. These methods will enable researchers to generate nucleosomes containing site-specific DNA damage for extensive biochemical and structural studies of DNA repair in the nucleosome.

Immunogenicity at delivery after Tdap vaccination in successive pregnancies.

Project description:BackgroundTetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccination is recommended to be administered in every pregnancy. Although the safety of this strategy has been confirmed, the immunogenicity of Tdap vaccination in two successive pregnancies has not yet been described. This study investigated Tdap-specific immunity levels and transplacental transfer in two successive pregnancies after repeated Tdap-vaccination.MethodsWomen enrolled in prior studies on Tdap vaccination during pregnancy were invited to participate in a follow-up study if they became pregnant again. Women who received a Tdap vaccine in both pregnancies were considered for this analysis. Tdap-specific total IgG and IgG subclasses were measured with a multiplex immunoassay.ResultsIn total, 27 participants with a mean interval between deliveries of 2.4 years were included in the analysis. In maternal serum, Tdap-specific total IgG levels were comparable at both deliveries whereas in cord serum, all Tdap-specific total IgG antibody levels were reduced at the second compared to the first delivery. This was largely reflected in the IgG1 levels in maternal and cord serum. Transplacental transfer ratios of total IgG and IgG1 were also mostly reduced in the second compared to the first pregnancy.ConclusionThis study reports for the first time Tdap-specific total IgG and IgG subclass levels and transfer ratios after repeated Tdap vaccination in successive pregnancies. We found reduced transfer of most Tdap-specific IgG and IgG1 antibodies in the successive pregnancy. As pertussis-specific antibodies wane quickly, Tdap vaccination in each pregnancy remains beneficial. However, more research is needed to understand the impact of closely spaced booster doses during pregnancy on early infant protection against pertussis.

Ribosome quality control activity potentiates vaccinia virus protein synthesis during infection.

Project description:Viral infection both activates stress signaling pathways and redistributes ribosomes away from host mRNAs to translate viral mRNAs. The intricacies of this ribosome shuffle from host to viral mRNAs are poorly understood. Here, we uncover a role for the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) factor ZNF598 during vaccinia virus mRNA translation. ZNF598 acts on collided ribosomes to ubiquitylate 40S subunit proteins uS10 (RPS20) and eS10 (RPS10), initiating RQC-dependent nascent chain degradation and ribosome recycling. We show that vaccinia infection enhances uS10 ubiquitylation, indicating an increased burden on RQC pathways during viral propagation. Consistent with an increased RQC demand, we demonstrate that vaccinia virus replication is impaired in cells that either lack ZNF598 or express a ubiquitylation-deficient version of uS10. Using SILAC-based proteomics and concurrent RNA-seq analysis, we determine that translation, but not transcription of vaccinia virus mRNAs is compromised in cells with deficient RQC activity. Additionally, vaccinia virus infection reduces cellular RQC activity, suggesting that co-option of ZNF598 by vaccinia virus plays a critical role in translational reprogramming that is needed for optimal viral propagation.
