Project description:Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health problem, with vaccination likely to be a necessary part of a successful control strategy. Results of the first Phase 2b efficacy trial of a candidate vaccine, MVA85A, evaluated in BCG-vaccinated infants were published last year. Although no improvement in efficacy above BCG alone was seen, cryopreserved samples from this trial provide an opportunity to study the immune response to vaccination in this population. Methods: We investigated blood samples taken before vaccination (baseline) and one and 28 days post-vaccination with MVA85A or placebo (Candin). The IFN-γ ELISpot assay was performed at baseline and on day 28 to quantify the adaptive response to Ag85A peptides. Gene expression analysis was performed at all three timepoints to identify early gene signatures predictive of the magnitude of the subsequent adaptive T cell response using the significance analysis of microarrays (SAM) statistical package and gene set enrichment analysis. Results: One day post-MVA85A, there is an induction of inflammatory pathways compared to placebo samples. Modules associated with myeloid cells and inflammation pre- and one day post-MVA85A correlate with a higher IFN-γ ELISpot response post-vaccination. By contrast, previous work done in UK adults shows early inflammation in this population is not associated with a strong T cell response but that induction of regulatory pathways inversely correlates with the magnitude of the T cell response. This may be indicative of important mechanistic differences in how T cell responses develop in these two populations following vaccination with MVA85A. Conclusion: The results suggest the capacity of MVA85A to induce a strong innate response is key to the initiation of an adaptive immune response in South African infants but induction of regulatory pathways may be more important in UK adults. Understanding differences in immune response to vaccination between populations is likely to be an important aspect of developing successful vaccines and vaccination strategies. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT00953927 PBMC collected pre or 28 days post vaccinated, stimulated with either Ag85A peptides (20 samples) or media alone (60).

Project description:Immune activation is associated with increased risk of tuberculosis (TB) disease in infants. We performed a prospective case–control analysis to identify the drivers of immune activation in infants and found cytomegalovirus (CMV) stimulated IFN-γ-expressing cells to be associated with CD8+ T cell activation (Spearman’s rho r = 0.241, p <0.0001). Among 49 infants who developed incident TB disease and 129 matched controls who remained healthy we found that CMV and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) specific IFN-γ responses were associated with increased risk of developing TB (Fisher’s Exact Test, p=0.049, OR 2.14, 95% CI 1.03-4.47), and associated with a shorter time to TB diagnosis (Log Rank Mantel-Cox p=0.012). T cell activation and CMV are associated with lower mycobacterial antigen-specific immune responses following immunization with Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and MVA85A, suggesting that increased susceptibility to TB in infants with virus infection may, in part, be due to poor responsiveness to vaccination. Understanding of the causes and impact of T cell activation could transform strategies used to protect against TB disease.

Project description:The reason for the largely variable protective effect against TB of the vaccine Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is not understood. In this study, we investigated whether epigenetic mechanisms are involved in the response of immune cells to the BCG vaccine. We isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from BCG-vaccinated subjects and performed global DNA methylation analysis in combination with functional assays representative of innate immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Enhanced containment of replication was observed in monocyte-derived macrophages from a sub-group of BCG-vaccinated individuals (identified as ‘responders’). A stable and robust differential DNA methylation pattern in response to BCG could be observed in PBMCs isolated from the responders but not from the non-responders. Gene ontology analysis revealed that promoters with altered DNA methylation pattern were strongly enriched among genes belonging to immune pathways in responders, however no enrichments could be observed in the non-responders. Our findings suggest that BCG-induced epigenetic reprogramming of immune cell function can enhance anti-mycobacterial immunity. Understanding why BCG induces this responses in responders but not in nnon-responders could provide clues to improvement of TB vaccine efficacy.

Project description:The century-old Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) remains the only licensed vaccine against tuberculosis (TB). Despite this, there is still a lot to learn about the immune response induced by BCG, both in terms of phenotype and specificity. Here, we investigated the BCG-specific gene expression changes induced in PBMCs and CD4 memory T cells by BCG in individuals pre- and 8m post vaccination. We also determined whether reactivity against a peptide pool defined in individuals with controlled latent TB infection (MTB300), and with peptides homologous to peptides found in BCG, was boosted following BCG vaccination.

Project description:Prenatal exposures such as infections and immunisation may influence infant responses. We had an opportunity to undertake an analysis of responses in infants within the context of a study investigating the effects of maternal mycobacterial exposures and infection on bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine-induced responses in Ugandan infants. Gene expression profiles for pathways associated with maternal LTBI and with maternal BCG scar were examined using samples collected at one (n=42) and six (n=51) weeks after BCG immunisation using microarray. Interferon and inflammation response pathways were up-regulated in infants of mothers with LTBI at six weeks, and in infants of mothers with a BCG scar at one and six weeks after BCG immunisation. Maternal BCG scar had a stronger association with infant responses than maternal LTBI, with an increased proinflammatory immune profile.
