Induction of broadly reactive influenza antibodies increases susceptibility to autoimmunity

ABSTRACT: Infection and vaccination repeatedly expose individuals to antigens that are conserved between influenza virus subtypes. Nevertheless, antibodies recognizing conserved influenza epitopes greatly outnumber antibodies reactive against variable epitopes. Elucidating factors contributing to the paucity of broadly reactive influenza antibodies remains a major obstacle for developing a universal influenza vaccine. Here, we report that inducing broadly reactive influenza antibodies increases autoreactive antibodies in humans and mice and exacerbates disease in four distinct models of autoimmune disease. Importantly, transferring broadly reactive influenza antibodies augments disease in the presence of inflammation or autoimmune susceptibility. Further, broadly reactive influenza antibodies spontaneously arise in mice with defects in B cell tolerance. Together, these data suggest that self-tolerance mechanisms limit the prevalence of broadly reactive influenza antibodies, which can exacerbate disease in the context of additional risk factors.

The lipid Gb3 promotes germinal center B cell responses and anti-viral immunity

Project description:Influenza viruses escape immunity due to rapid antigenic evolution, which requires vaccination strategies that allow for broadly protective antibody responses. Here, we demonstrate that the lipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) expressed on germinal center (GC) B cells is essential for the production of high-affinity antibodies. Mechanistically, Gb3 binds and disengages CD19 from its chaperone CD81 for subsequent translocation to the B cell receptor (BCR) complex to trigger signaling. Moreover, this lipid regulates MHC-II expression to increase diversity of T follicular helper (Tfh) and GC B cells reactive with subdominant epitopes. In influenza infection, Gb3 promotes broadly reactive antibody responses and cross-protection. Thus, we show that Gb3 determines affinity as well as breadth in B cell immunity and propose this lipid as potential vaccine adjuvant against viral infection.

Identification of autoantigens recognized by the 2F5 and 4E10 broadly neutralizing HIV-1 antibodies

Project description:Many human monoclonal antibodies that neutralize multiple clades of HIV-1 are polyreactive and bind avidly to mammalian autoantigens. Indeed, the generation of neutralizing antibodies to the 2F5 and 4E10 epitopes of HIV-1 gp41 in man may be proscribed by immune tolerance since mice expressing the VH and VL regions of 2F5 have a block in B-cell development characteristic of central tolerance. This developmental blockade implies the presence of tolerizing autoantigens that are mimicked by the membrane-proximal external region of HIV-1 gp41. Here we identify human kynureninase (KYNU) and splicing factor 3b subunit 3 (SF3B3) as the primary conserved, vertebrate self-antigens recognized by the 2F5 and 4E10 antibodies, respectively. 2F5 binds the H4 domain of KYNU which contains the complete 2F5 linear epitope (ELDKWA). 4E10 recognizes a conformational epitope of SF3B3 that is strongly dependent on hydrophobic interactions. Opossums carry a rare KYNU H4 domain that abolishes 2F5 binding, but retain all SF3B3 4E10 epitopes. Immunization of opossums with HIV-1 gp140 induced extraordinary titers of serum antibody to the 2F5 ELDKWA epitope but little or nothing to the 4E10 determinant. Identification of structural motif shared by vertebrates and HIV-1 provides direct evidence that immunological tolerance can impair humoral responses to HIV-1. The invitrogen protoarray that contains >9,400 recombinant human proteins was used to identify self-ligands that are recognized by broadly neutralizing HIV-1 antibodies 2F5 and 4E10. An isotype-matched human myeloma protein (151K, Southern Biotech) was used as control.

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

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.

ER proteostasis and temperature differentially impact the mutational tolerance of influenza hemagglutinin

Project description:Here, we present a systematic and quantitative test of the hypothesis that the composition and activities of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis network impact mutational tolerance of secretory pathway client proteins. We focus on influenza hemagluttinin (HA), a viral coat protein that folds in the host’s ER via a complex but well-characterized pathway. By integrating chemical methods to modulate the unfolded protein response with deep mutational scanning to assess mutational tolerance, we discover that upregulation of ER chaperones broadly enhances HA mutational tolerance across numerous sites and secondary/tertiary structure elements, including sites targeted by host antibodies. Remarkably, this host chaperone-enhanced mutational tolerance is observed at the same HA sites where mutational tolerance is most reduced by propagation at a fever-like temperature. Thus, host ER proteostasis mechanisms and temperature modulate HA mutational tolerance in opposite directions. This finding has important implications for influenza evolution, because influenza immune escape is contingent on HA possessing sufficient mutational tolerance to acquire antibody resistance while still maintaining the capacity to fold and function. More broadly, this work provides the first experimental evidence that the composition and activities of the ER proteostasis network critically define the mutational tolerance and, therefore, the evolution of secretory pathway client proteins.

Transcriptional profiling of human KIR+ and KIR- CD8 T cells by bulk RNA-seq

Project description:Previous reports show that Ly49+CD8+ T cells can suppress autoimmunity in mouse models of autoimmune diseases. Here we find a markedly increased frequency of CD8+ T cells expressing inhibitory Killer cell Immunoglobulin like Receptors (KIR), the human equivalents of the Ly49 family, in the blood and inflamed tissues of various human autoimmune diseases. Moreover, KIR+CD8+ T cells can efficiently eliminate pathogenic gliadin-specific CD4+ T cells from Celiac disease (CeD) patients’ leukocytes in vitro. Furthermore, we observe elevated levels of KIR+CD8+ T cells, but not CD4+ regulatory T cells, in COVID-19 and influenza-infected patients, and correlate with disease severity and vasculitis in COVID-19. Expanded KIR+CD8+ T cells from these different diseases display shared phenotypes and similar T cell receptor sequences. These results characterize a regulatory CD8+ T cell subset in humans, broadly active in both autoimmune and infectious diseases, which we hypothesize functions to control self-reactive or otherwise pathogenic T cells.

Immunization with two heterotypic influenza hemagglutinins by time difference effectively produces broadly binding antibodies against heterotypic influenza virus

Project description:Broadly protective antibodies against highly variable pathogens are very important for design of vaccines and therapeutics. We report that by administering two heterotypic influenza hemagglutinins (HAs) to mice by time difference, monoclonal antibodies can be obtained that bind strongly to both heterotypic influenza HAs. More interestingly, it was able to bind widely to the untreated subtype of HA.
