Allelic variation in Class I HLA determines pre-existing memory responses to SARS-CoV-2 that shape the CD8+ T cell repertoire upon viral exposure

ABSTRACT: Effective presentation of antigens by HLA class I molecules to CD8+ T cells is required for viral elimination and generation of long-term immunological memory. In this study, we applied a single-cell, multi-omic technology to generate the first unified ex vivo characterization of the CD8+ T cell response to SARS-CoV-2 across 4 major HLA class I alleles. We found that HLA genotype conditions key features of epitope specificity, TCR a/b sequence diversity, and the utilization of pre-existing SARS-CoV-2 reactive memory T cell pools. Single-cell transcriptomics revealed functionally diverse T cell phenotypes of SARS-CoV-2-reactive T cells, associated with both disease stage and epitope specificity. Our results show that HLA variations significantly influence the CD8+ T cell repertoire shape and utilization of immune recall upon SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Identification and characterization of a SARS-CoV-2 specific CD8 T cell response with immunodominant features

Project description:The COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 is a continuous challenge worldwide, and there is an urgent need to map the landscape of immunogenic and immunodominant epitopes recognized by CD8 T cells. Here, we analyze samples from 31 COVID-19 patients for CD8 T cell recognition of 500 peptide-HLA class I complexes, restricted by 10 common HLA alleles. We identify 18 CD8 T cell recognized SARS-CoV-2 epitopes, including an epitope with immunodominant features derived from ORF1ab and restricted by HLA-A*01:01. In-depth characterization of SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8 T cell responses of patients with acute critical and severe disease reveals high expression of NKG2A, lack of cytokine production and a gene expression profile inhibiting T cell re-activation and migration while sustaining survival. SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8 T cell responses are detectable up to 5 months post recovery from critical and severe disease, and these responses convert from dysfunctional effector to functional memory CD8 T cells during convalescence.

Recruitment of highly cytotoxic CD8+ T cell receptors in mild SARS-CoV-2 infection

Project description:T cell immunity is crucial for the control of SARS-CoV-2 infections and has been widely studied on a quantitative level. However, quality of responses, in particular of CD8+ T cells, has only been marginally investigated so far. Here, we isolated T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires specific for immunodominant SARS-CoV-2 epitopes restricted to common Human Leucocyte Antigen (HLA) class I molecules in convalescent individuals. SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ T cells were detected up to twelve months from infection. TCR repertoires were diverse, with heterogeneous functional avidity and cytotoxicity towards virus-infected cells, as demonstrated for TCR-engineered T cells. High TCR functionality correlated with gene signatures that, remarkably, could be retrieved for each epitope:HLA combination analyzed. Overall, our data demonstrate that polyclonal and highly functional CD8+ TCRs – classical features of protective immunity - are recruited upon mild SARS-CoV-2 infection, providing tools to assess the quality and to potentially restore functional CD8+ T cell immunity.

TCR repertoire profiling of CMV specific and SARS-CoV2 Spike specific CD8+ T cells using single cell sequencing

Project description:We introduced single-chain trimer (SCT) technologies into a high throughput platform for pMHC library generation that can be used for screening antigen specific CD8+ T cells. We compared the diversity of T cell receptor repertoire captured by SCT and folded peptide-MHC multimer presenting HLA-A02:01 restricted CMV peptide. We then constructed SCT libraries designed to capture SARS-CoV-2 spike specific CD8+ T cells from COVID-19 participants and healthy donors. TCR sequencing with antigen specificity was analyzed. The immunogenicity of these epitopes was validated by functional assays of T cells with cloned TCRs captured using SCT libraries.

A public antibody class recognizes an S2 epitope exposed on open conformations of SARS-CoV-2 spike

Project description:Delineating the origins and properties of antibodies elicited by SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination is critical for understanding their benefits and potential shortcomings. Therefore, we investigated the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S)-reactive B cell repertoire in unexposed individuals by flow cytometry and single-cell sequencing. We found that ~82% of SARS-CoV-2 S-reactive B cells show a naive phenotype, which represents an unusually high fraction of total human naive B cells (~0.1%). Approximately 10% of these naive S-reactive B cells shared an IGHV1-69/IGKV3-11 B cell receptor pairing, an enrichment of 18-fold compared to the complete naive repertoire. Following SARS-CoV-2 infection, we report an average 37-fold enrichment of IGHV1-69/IGKV3-11 B cell receptor pairing in the S-reactive memory B cells compared to the unselected memory repertoire. This class of B cells targets a previously undefined non-neutralizing epitope on the S2 subunit that becomes exposed on S proteins used in approved vaccines when they transition away from the native pre-fusion state because of instability. These findings can help guide the improvement of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.

Severely ill COVID-19 patients display impaired exhaustion features in SARS-CoV-2-reactive CD8+ T cells

Project description:The molecular properties of CD8+ T cells that respond to SARS-CoV-2 infection are not fully known. Here, we report on the single-cell transcriptomes of >80,000 virus-reactive CD8+ T cells, obtained using a modified Antigen-Reactive T cell Enrichment (ARTE) assay, from 39 COVID-19 patients and 10 healthy subjects. COVID-19 patients segregated into two groups based on whether the dominant CD8+ T cell response to SARS-CoV-2 was ‘exhausted’ or not. SARS-CoV-2-reactive cells in the exhausted subset were increased in frequency and displayed lesser cytotoxicity and inflammatory features in COVID-19 patients with mild compared to severe illness. In contrast, SARS-CoV-2-reactive cells in the dominant non-exhausted subset from patients with severe disease showed enrichment of transcripts linked to co-stimulation, pro-survival NF-κB signaling, and anti-apoptotic pathways, suggesting the generation of robust CD8+ T cell memory responses in patients with severe COVID-19 illness. CD8+ T cells reactive to influenza and respiratory syncytial virus from healthy subjects displayed polyfunctional features and enhanced glycolysis. Cells with such features were largely absent in SARS-CoV-2-reactive cells from both COVID-19 patients and healthy controls non-exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Overall, our single-cell analysis revealed substantial diversity in the nature of CD8+ T cells responding to SARS-CoV-2.

Pre-existing cross-reactive antibody responses do not significantly impact inactivated COVID-19 vaccine-induced neutralization

Project description:Recent exposure to seasonal coronaviruses (sCoVs) may stimulate cross-reactive antibody responses against SARS-CoV-2. Previous studies have shown divergent results regarding protective or damaging immunity induced by prior exposure to sCoVs. It is still unknown whether pre-existing humoral immunity may play a role in the vaccine-induced neutralization and antibody responses. In this study, we collected 36 paired sera in healthy volunteers before and after immunization with inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, and analyzed the distribution and intensity of pre-existing antibody responses at the epitope level before vaccine immunization, as well as the relationship between pre-existing sCoVs immunity and vaccine-induced neutralization.

SARS-CoV-2 escapes CD8 T cell surveillance via mutations in MHC-I restricted epitopes [10x]

Project description:CD8+ T cell immunity to SARS-CoV-2 has been implicated in COVID-19 severity and virus control. Here, we identified non-synonymous mutations in MHC-I restricted CD8+ T cell epitopes after deep sequencing of 747 SARS-CoV-2 virus isolates. Mutant peptides exhibited diminished or abrogated MHC-I binding, which was associated with a loss of recognition and functional responses by CD8+ T cells isolated from HLA-matched COVID-19 patients. Our findings highlight the capacity of SARS-CoV-2 to subvert CD8+ T cell surveillance through sporadically emerging escape mutations in MHC- I restricted viral epitopes.

Mutations in epitope flanking regions for SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein affect proteasomal processing to alter CD8+ T cell responses

Project description:Viral CD8+ epitopes are generated by the cellular turnover of viral proteins, predominantly by the proteasome1. Mutations located within viral epitopes can result in escape from memory T cells2. Focussing on two of the most dominant SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein CD8+ epitopes3,4, we identified mutations in epitope flanking regions. Using SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein transduced B cell lines and in vitro proteasomal processing of peptides, we investigated the contribution of these mutations to antigen processing and T cell activation. We found that decreased NP9-17-B*27:05 CD8+ T cell responses to the NP-Q7K mutation correlated with lower epitope surface expression, likely due to a lack of efficient epitope production by the proteasome and suggesting an immune escape caused by this mutation. In contrast, NP-P6L and NP-D103N/Y mutations flanking the NP9-17-B*27:05 and NP105-113-B*07:02 epitopes, respectively, increased CD8+ T cell responses associated with enhanced epitope production by the proteasome. Our results provide evidence that SARS-CoV-2 mutations outside the epitope could have significant impact on antigen processing and presentation, thereby contributing to escape from immunodominant T cell responses. Alternatively, mutations could enhance antigen processing and T cell efficacy, opening new avenues for improving future vaccine designs.

The landscape of the SARS-CoV-2 HLA-peptidome

Project description:The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-bound-viral antigens, serve as an immunological signature that can be selectively recognized by T cells. As viruses evolve by acquiring mutations, it is essential to identify a range of viral presented antigens. Utilizing HLA-peptidomics we Identified SARS-CoV-2-derived peptides presented by highly prevalent HLA Class-I (HLA-I) molecules using infected cells as well as overexpression of SARS-CoV-2 genes. We found 26 HLA-I peptides and 36 HLA class-II (HLA-II) peptides, which are estimated to be presented by at least one HLA allele in 99% of the world population. Among the identified peptides were recurrently presented HLA-I peptides, peptides derived from out-of-frame-ORFs and presentation-hotspots. Seven of these peptides were previously shown to be immunogenic, and we identified two novel immuno-reactive peptides using HLA-multimer staining. These results may aid the development of the next generation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines based on viral-specific-presented antigens that span several of the viral genes.
