Project description:Understanding human vaccine-induced memory B cell responses is critical to developing effective vaccines to evolving viruses like Influenza A. B cell responses to influenza exposure involve activation of pre-existing immunity and generation of new responses. To characterize these two types of responses, we analyzed the response to H7N9 vaccination in H7N9 naïve adults. This allowed us to distinguish responses of pre-existing B cells towards conserved epitopes versus newly generated H7-specific epitopes using hemagglutinin (HA) probes by flow cytometry. The recall response to conserved epitopes on H7 HA involved a transient expansion of memory B cells with little observed adaptation. However, the B cell response to newly encountered epitopes was phenotypically distinct and generated a sustained memory population that evolved and affinity matured months after vaccination. These findings establish clear differences between newly generated and pre-existing memory B cells, highlighting the challenges in achieving long-lasting, broad protection against an ever-evolving virus.

Project description:Combining variant antigens into a multivalent vaccine is a traditional approach used to provide broad coverage against antigenically variable pathogens, such as polio, human papilloma and influenza viruses. However, strategies for increasing the breadth of antibody coverage beyond the vaccine are not well understood, but may provide more anticipatory protection. Influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) is a prototypic variant antigen. Vaccines that induce HA-specific neutralizing antibodies lose efficacy as amino acid substitutions accumulate in neutralizing epitopes during influenza virus evolution. Here we studied the effect of a potent combination adjuvant (CpG/MPLA/squalene-in-water emulsion) on the breadth and maturation of the antibody response to a representative variant of HA subtypes H1, H5 and H7. Using HA protein microarrays and antigen-specific B cell labelling, we show when administered individually, each HA elicits a cross-reactive antibody profile for multiple variants within the same subtype and other closely-related subtypes (homosubtypic and heterosubtypic cross-reactivity, respectively). Despite a capacity for each subtype to induce heterosubtypic cross-reactivity, broader coverage was elicited by simply combining the subtypes into a multivalent vaccine. Importantly, multiplexing did not compromise antibody avidity or affinity maturation to the individual HA constituents. The use of adjuvants to increase the breadth of antibody coverage beyond the vaccine antigens may help future-proof vaccines against newly-emerging variants.

Project description: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.

Project description:Influenza B virus (FLUBV) is a major respiratory pathogen of humans. Seasonal influenza vaccines include either one or both FLUBV lineage strains, Victoria, and Yamagata. Vaccine mismatch occurs frequently, particularly in countries where vaccines contain only one of the lineages. We have previously described the safety and efficacy of modified live attenuated FLUBV vaccines based on either virus with rearranged genomes (FluB-RAM and FluB-RANS) or carrying a PB1 segment with a combination of temperature sensitive mutations and a C-terminal HA tag (FluB-att). We compared side by side the immunological responses in female and male DBA/2J mice vaccinated with either one of these vaccines and those with isogenic backgrounds encoding a chimeric HA segment carrying an N-terminal peptide encoding the IgA inducing peptide (IGIP). Recombinant viruses with or without the IGIP modification were genetically stable over multiple passages in eggs. In mice, introduction of IGIP improved attenuation of the vaccine candidates, particularly for the FluB-RAM/IGIP compared with the non-IGIP FluB-RAM counterpart. In a prime-boost regime, mice were completely protected against lethal challenge with a homologous FLUBV strain. Recombinant viruses induced antibodies against HA considered of protective value. Antibodies against NA and NP were readily detected. Compared to male mice and regardless of the vaccine used, female mice showed a clear trend towards enhanced humoral and cross-reactive IgG and IgA anti-HA responses as well as against NA and NP. The presence of IGIP in the vaccine resulted in an overall trend towards reduced anti-HA responses but enhanced anti-NA and anti-NP responses, particularly of the IgA isotype. Mucosal and serological responses two weeks after challenge showed similar trends with clear differences observed based on sex, vaccine backbone, and whether the vaccine carried the IGIP modification. These findings are significant for the development of universal influenza vaccines.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne intracellular bacterial pathogen leading to human listeriosis. Despite a high mortality rate and increasing antibiotic resistance no clinically approved vaccine against Listeria is available. To identify antigens for this bacterial pathogen that can be encoded in mRNA vaccine formulations, we screened for Listeria epitopes presented on the surface of infected human cell lines by mass spectrometry-based immunopeptidomics. In between more than 15,000 human self-peptides, we detected 68 Listeria epitopes from 42 different bacterial proteins, including several known antigens. Peptide epitopes presented on different cell lines were often derived from the same bacterial surface proteins, classifying these antigens as potential vaccine candidates. Encoding these highly presented antigens in lipid nanoparticle mRNA vaccine formulations resulted in high levels of protection in vaccination challenge experiments in mice. Our results pave the way for the development of a clinical mRNA vaccine against Listeria and demonstrate the power of immunopeptidomics for next-generation bacterial vaccine development.

Project description:Non-mutated FVIII-specific CD4 T cell epitopes have been recently found to contribute to the development of inhibitors in patients with hemophilia A (HA), while auto-reactive CD4 T cells specific to FVIII circulate in the blood of healthy individuals at a frequency close to the foreign protein Ovalbumin. Thus, although FVIII is a self-protein, the central tolerance raised against FVIII appears to be low. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the FVIII CD4 T cell repertoire in twenty-nine healthy donors. Sequencing of the CDR3β TCR region from isolated FVIII-specific CD4 T cells revealed a limited usage and pairing of TRBV and TRBJ genes, as well as a mostly hydrophobic composition of the CDR3β region according to their auto-reactivity. FVIII repertoire is dominated by a few clonotypes, with only 13 clonotypes accounting for half of the FVIII response. Through a large-scale epitope mapping of the full-length FVIII sequence, we identified 18 immunodominant epitopes located in the A1, A3, C1, and C2 domains and covering half of the T-cell response. These epitopes exhibited a broad specificity for HLA-DR or DP molecules or both. T-cell priming with this reduced set of peptides revealed that highly expanded clonotypes specific to these epitopes were responsible individually for up to 32% of the total FVIII repertoire. These FVIII T cell epitopes and clonotypes were shared among HLA-unrelated donors tested and previously reported HA patients. Our study highlights the role of the auto-reactive T cell response against FVIII in HA and its similarity to the response observed in healthy individuals. Thus, it provides valuable insights for the development of new tolerance induction and deimmunization strategies

Project description:The aim of the study was to determine B6 and BXD2 mouse sera IgG and IgM reactivity to linear peptide epitopes at different ages. Serum from B6 or BXD2 mice was diluted at 1:200 for IgG-specific analysis or 1:1000 for IgM specific analysis and incubated on a PEPperPRINT peptide microarray platform printed with peptide autoantigens. 80 pre-selected peptides based on a previous screen of pooled mouse serum BXD2 against the PEPperCHIP® Autoimmunity Microarray with 2,733 linear B-cell epitopes were printed in duplicate in 16 copies on a custom PEPperCHIP® Peptide Microarray. Flag (DYKDDDDKGG) and HA (YPYDVPDYAG) control peptides (10 spots each control) were randomly distributed in each array copy as controls. Sera from 2, 5, or 9 month old B6 or BXD2 mice was profiled for anti-mouse IgG or IgM-specific analysis of autoantibody reactivity to the peptide auto-epitopes.

Project description:Current seasonal and pre-pandemic influenza vaccines induce short-lived predominantly strain-specific and limited heterosubtypic responses. To better understand how vaccine adjuvants AS03 and MF59 may provide improved antibody responses to vaccination, we interrogated serum from subjects who received 2 doses of inactivated monovalent influenza A/Indonesia/05/2005 vaccine with or without AS03 or MF59 using hemagglutinin (HA) microarrays (NCT01317758 and NCT01317745). The arrays were designed to reflect both full length and globular head HA derived from 17 influenza A subtypes (H1 to H16 and H18) and influenza B strains. We observed significantly increased strain-specific and broad homo- and hetero-subtypic antibody responses with both AS03 and MF59 adjuvanted vaccination with AS03 achieving a higher titer and breadth of IgG responses relative to MF59. Adjuvanted vaccine was also associated with the elicitation of stalk directed antibody. We established good correlation of the array antibody responses to H5 antigens with standard HA inhibition and microneutralization titers.
