T cell responses in SARS-CoV-2 vaccinees with sustained or declined antibody titer

ABSTRACT: SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have been used worldwide to combat COVID-19 pandemic. To elucidate the factors that determine the longevity of spike (S)-specific antibodies, we traced the characteristics of S-specific T cell clonotypes together with their epitopes and anti-S antibody titers before and after BNT162b2 vaccination over time. T cell receptor (TCR) alpha/beta sequences and mRNA expression of the S-responded T cells were investigated using single-cell TCR- and RNA-sequencing. In donors exhibiting sustained anti-S antibody titers (designated as “sustainers”), S-reactive T cell clonotypes detected immediately after 2nd vaccination polarized to follicular helper T (Tfh) cells, which was less obvious in “decliners”. Even before vaccination, S-reactive CD4+ T cell clonotypes did exist, most of which cross-reacted with environmental or symbiotic bacteria. However, these clonotypes contracted after vaccination. Conversely, S-reactive clonotypes dominated after vaccination were undetectable in pre-vaccinated T cell pool, suggesting that highly-responding S-reactive T cells were established by vaccination from rare clonotypes. These results suggest that de novo acquisition of memory Tfh cells upon vaccination contributes to the longevity of anti-S antibody titers.

Primary ChAdOx1 vaccination does not reactivate pre-existing, cross-reactive immunity

Project description:Currently available COVID-19 vaccines include inactivated virus, live attenuated virus, mRNA-based, viral vectored and adjuvanted protein-subunit-based vaccines. All of them contain the spike glycoprotein as the main immunogen and result in reduced disease severity upon SARS-CoV-2 infection. While we and others have shown that mRNA-based vaccination reactivates pre-existing, cross-reactive immunity, the effect of vector vaccines in this regard is unknown. Here, we studied cellular and humoral responses in heterologous adenovirus-vector-based ChAdOx1 nCOV-19 (AZ; Vaxzeria, AstraZeneca) and mRNA-based BNT162b2 (BNT; Comirnaty, BioNTech/Pfizer) vaccination and compared it to a homologous BNT vaccination regimen. AZ primary vaccination did not lead to measurable reactivation of cross-reactive cellular and humoral immunity compared to BNT primary vaccination. Moreover, humoral immunity induced by primary vaccination with AZ displayed differences in linear spike peptide epitope coverage and a lack of anti-S2 IgG antibodies. Contrary to primary AZ vaccination, secondary vaccination with BNT reactivated pre-existing, cross-reactive immunity, comparable to homologous primary and secondary mRNA vaccination. While induced anti-S1 IgG antibody titers were higher after heterologous vaccination, induced CD4+ T cell responses were highest in homologous vaccinated. However, the overall TCR repertoire breadth was comparable between heterologous AZ-BNT-vaccinated and homologous BNT-BNT-vaccinated individuals, matching TCR repertoire breadths after SARS-CoV-2 infection, too. The reasons why AZ and BNT primary vaccination elicits different immune response patterns to essentially the same antigen, and the associated benefits and risks, need further investigation to inform vaccine and vaccination schedule development.

Cross-reactive antibodies enhance live attenuated virus infection for increased immunogenicity

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 30 subjects collected at day 0, day 1 and day 3 post yellow fever (YF) vaccination. Each patient sample is performed in duplicate to reduce the chance of error. Briefly, the project investigates how cross-reactive JE antibodies that are generated from prior vaccination can influence YF live-attenuated vaccine (LAV). The groups are hence segregated based on the YF antibody titers after 1 month vaccination. Group 4 refers to the control group where individuals received only the YF LAV. Enhancing group refers to the treatment group (given JE followed by YF vaccine), where individuals had YF antibody titers higher than 99% confidence interval of the YF antibody titers of the control group. Non-enhancing group, on the other hand, refers to the treatment group where individuals had YF antibody titers within or lower 99% confidence interval of the control group. Our present study provides evidence that enhancing levels of cross-reactive antibodies from prior Japanese encephalitis (JE) vaccination can improve subsequent YF immunogenicity. These microarray results indicate the genes and gene signatures that are associated with the differences in YF immunogenicity.

Breakthrough infections by SARS-CoV-2 variants boost cross-reactive hybrid immune responses in mRNA-vaccinated Golden Syrian Hamsters

Project description:Hybrid immunity (vaccination + natural infection) to SARS-CoV-2 provides superior protection to re-infection. We performed immune profiling studies during breakthrough infections in mRNA-vaccinated hamsters to evaluate hybrid immunity induction. Vaccine was dosed to induce binding antibody titers against ancestral spike, but not efficient virus neutralization of ancestral SARS-CoV-2 or variants of concern (VoCs). Vaccination reduced morbidity and controlled lung virus titers for ancestral virus and Alpha but allowed breakthrough infections in Beta, Delta and Mu-challenged hamsters. Vaccination primed for T cell responses that were boosted by infection. Infection back-boosted neutralizing antibody responses against ancestral virus and VoCs. Hybrid immunity resulted in more cross-reactive sera, reflected by smaller antigenic cartography distances. Transcriptomics post infection reflects both vaccination status and disease course, and suggests a role for interstitial macrophages in vaccine-mediated protection. Therefore, protection by vaccination, even in the absence of neutralizing antibodies, correlates with recall of broadly reactive B- and T-cell responses.

RNA Seq of TFH cells in Th1 vaccine regimen

Project description:Generating durable humoral immunity through vaccination depends upon effective interaction of follicular helper T cells (Tfh) with germinal center (GC) B cells. Th1 polarization of Tfh cells is an important process shaping the success of Tfh-GC B cell interactions by influencing co-stimulatory and cytokine-dependent Tfh help to B cells. However, the question remains whether adjuvant-dependent modulation of Tfh cells enhances HIV-1 vaccine-induced anti-Envelope (Env) antibody responses. We investigated whether an HIV-1 vaccine platform designed to increase the number of Th1-polarized Tfh cells enhances the magnitude and quality of anti-Env antibodies. Utilizing a novel interferon-induced protein (IP)-10-adjuvanted HIV-1 DNA prime, followed by an MPLA+QS-21-adjuvanted Env protein boost in macaques (DIP-10 PALFQ), we observed higher anti-Env serum IgG titers with greater cross-clade reactivity, specificity to V1V2, and effector functions when compared to macaques primed with DNA lacking IP-10 and boosted with MPLA+alum-adjuvanted Env protein (DPALFA) The DIP-10 PALFQ vaccine regimen elicited higher anti-Env IgG1 and lower IgG4 antibodies in serum, showing for the first time that adjuvants can dramatically impact the IgG subclass profile in macaques. The DIP-10 PALFQ regimen also increased vaginal and rectal IgA antibodies to a greater extent. Within lymph nodes, we observed augmented GC B cell responses and promotion of Th1 gene expression profiles in GC Tfh cells. The frequency of GC Tfh cells correlated with both the magnitude and avidity of anti-Env serum IgG. Together, these data suggest that adjuvant-induced stimulation of Th1-Tfh cells is an effective strategy for enhancing the magnitude and quality of anti-Env antibody response.

Opposing roles of E2A and Id3 that orchestrate and enforce the naive T cell fate

Project description:It is established that E2A and its antagonist, Id3, modulate developmental progression at the pre-TCR and TCR checkpoints. Here we show at a global scale how E2A promotes commitment to the T cell lineage and how pre-TCR mediated signalling affects E2A genome-wide occupancy. We find aberrant development of CD4 memory-like and TFH-like cells, T-B cell conjugates and, remarkably, B cell follicles in Id3-/-thymi. We also find that Id3-/-CD4 splenocytes exhibit increased numbers of TFH-like cells. We propose a model in which Id3 modulates the naive versus effector/memory cell fate. Collectively, these data show how E2A acts globally to orchestrate T-lineage development and that Id3 antagonizes E2A activity beyond the pre-TCR checkpoint to enforce the naive T cell fate. ChIP-Seq was performed in thymocytes isolated from either untreated Rag2-/-mice (DN3 cells) or Rag2-/- mice injected with anti-CD3e antibody (DN4 cells). ChIP used antibodies against either E2A or H3K4me1.

Integrative single-cell RNA and T-cell receptor analyses reveal transcriptional features of antigen-reactive tumor-infiltrating regulatory T cells in patients with lung cancer

Project description:Background: T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation is essential to complete differentiation of tumor-infiltrating regulatory T cells (T-Tregs). Therefore, elucidation of TCR-dependent regulatory network involved in activation and proliferation of T-Tregs will facilitate discovery of novel antitumor remedy. Here, we investigated transcriptional features specific for antigen-reactive Tregs by harnessing single-cell RNA and TCR analyses of human Tregs derived from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Assuming Tregs undergo clonal expansion in response to antigens, we sought for transcriptional features specific for antigen-reactive Tregs by comparing gene expression of Tregs with unique TCR clonotypes and those with expanded TCR clonotypes. To verify the identified molecule, multiplex immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry were used. Results: We found that the proportion of Tregs with expanded clonotypes was much higher in the tumor than in the periphery blood. We also found that T-Tregs with shared clonotypes were transcriptionally more similar to each other than to those with different clonotypes. Finally, we identified SYNGR2, TNFRSF18, DUSP4, and CTLA4 as core signature genes for T-Tregs with expanded clonotypes and confirmed their existences expressed on human T-Tregs. Interestingly, T-Treg-specific co-regulatory network revealed that SYNGR2, TNFRSF18 and DUSP4 are potential coordinators between TCR-dependent activation and cell proliferation. Conclusions: Our study shed light on regulatory insights of TCR-dependent Treg activation and differentiation in tumor and therapeutic strategies for patients with NSCLC.

Tumor-reactive clonotype dynamics dictate clinical response to TIL therapy in melanoma [TCR-Seq]

Project description:Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) is effective in cancer patients, yet the profiles, specificity and dynamics of tumor clonotypes remain opaque. Using single-cell RNA/TCR-sequencing, clonotypes were tracked from baseline tumors to ACT products (ACTP) and post-ACT blood and tumor samples from 13 metastatic melanoma patients (NCT03475134). Furthermore, a predictor of tumor-reactive clonotypes was derived from the transcriptomic profiles of tumor-specific or bystander clones. Patients with clinical responses had tumors enriched in tumor-reactive TILs, preferentially expanding in-vitro to generate larger and more tumoricidal products and preferentially re-infiltrating tumors post-ACT. Conversely, lack of responses was associated with tumors devoid of tumor-reactive clonotypes and with cell products mostly composed of blood-borne clonotypes. The exhaustion state characterizing intratumoral tumor-reactive TILs was attenuated during in-vitro expansion and restored after tumor re-engraftment only in responders. Thus, tumor-reactive clonotypes drive clinical response to TIL therapy, providing insight to select patients or improve TILs’ culture.

Comparable CD8 + T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in single-cell transcriptomics of recently allogeneic transplanted patients and healthy individuals

Project description:Despite extensive research on SARS-CoV-2 vaccination responses in healthy individuals, there is comparatively little known beyond antibody titers and T-cell responses in the vulnerable cohort of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). In this study, we assessed the serological response and performed longitudinal multimodal analyses including T cell functionality and single-cell RNA sequencing combined with TCR/BCR profiling in the context of BNT162b2 vaccination in ASCT patients. In addition, these data were compared to publicly available data sets of healthy vaccinees. Protective antibody titers were achieved in 40% of patients. We identified a distorted B and T cell distribution, a reduced TCR diversity, and increased levels of exhaustion marker expression as possible causes for the poorer vaccine response rates in ASCT patients. IGHV gene rearrangement after vaccination proved to be highly variable in ASCT patients. Changes in TCRα and TCRβ gene rearrangement after vaccination differed from patterns observed in healthy vaccinees as well as unvaccinated ASCT patients and associated transplant donors. Crucially, ASCT patients elicited comparable proportions of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-induced (VI) CD8+ T cells, characterized by a distinct gene expression pattern that is associated with SARS-CoV-2 specificity in healthy individuals. Our study underlines the impaired immune system and thus the lower vaccine response rates in ASCT patients. However, since protective vaccine responses and VI-CD8+ T cells can be induced in part of ASCT patients, our data advocate early post-transplant vaccination due to the high risk of infection in this vulnerable group.

ZIKV infection induces robust Th1-like Tfh cell and long-term protective antibody responses in immunocompetent mice

Project description:Induction of long-lived antibody responses during infection or vaccination is often essential for subsequent protection, but the relative contributions of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells and T helper 1 (Th1) cells for induction of antigen specific antibody responses to viruses are unclear. Here, we establish an acute Zika virus (ZIKV) infection model in immunocompetent mice, and show that ZIKV infection elicits robust Th1-like Tfh cell and protective antibody responses. While these Th1-like Tfh cells share phenotypic and transcriptomic profiles with both Tfh and Th1 cells, they also have unique surface markers and gene expression characteristics, and are dependent on T-bet for their development. Th1-like Tfh cells, but not Th1 cells, are essential for class switching of ZIKV-specific IgG2c antibodies and maintenance of long-term neutralizing antibody responses. Our study suggests that specific modulation of the Th1-like Tfh cell response during infection or vaccination may augment the induction of antiviral antibody response to ZIKV and other viruses.

Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Wild Type and Bcl6-/- helper T cell Transcriptomes

Project description:Virus infection induces T follicular helper (TFH) and T helper 1 (TH1) cells. Although TFH cells are important in anti-viral humoral immunity, the role of TH 1 cells is still elusive. IgG2 antibodies predominate in the response to vaccination with inactivated Influenza A virus (IAV) and were responsible for protective immunity to lethal challenge with pathogenic H5N1 and pandemic H1N1 IAVs even in mice lacking TFH cells owing to B or T cell-specific ablation of the Bcl6. We demonstrate that IL-21 and IFN-γ secreted from TH1 cells were essential for greater persistence and higher titers of IgG2 protective antibodies. These results suggest that TH1 induction could be a promising strategy to induce effective neutralizing antibodies against emerging influenza viruses.
