Project description:Precise immunological mechanisms of mRNA vaccines have still not been fully elucidated, especially the initial immune responses at the injection site. Here, by constructing a single-cell atlas of injection site responses of mRNA vaccine, we show that stromal inflammatory responses and type I interferon responses dominate initial transcriptional reactions elicited by mRNA vaccines at the injection site. Tracking down the fates of the delivered mRNA revealed that injection site fibroblasts are highly enriched with the delivered mRNA, and they express IFN-β specifically in response to the mRNA component, not to the LNP. Accordingly, migratory dendritic cells highly expressing interferon stimulated genes (mDC_ISG) were found specifically in muscle and draining lymph nodes of mRNA vaccine injected mice, compared to the empty LNP injected mice. Co-administration of IFN-β and LNP robustly induced mDC_ISGs at the injection site and substantially enhanced antigen-specific CD8 T cell responses. Collectively, these data elucidate earliest mechanisms of the mRNA vaccine and highlight the underappreciated immunogenic role of the mRNA component in the mRNA vaccine.

Project description:Given the importance of sustained antigen presentation in maintenance of lymph node (LN) immune responses, we hypothesized that vaccine antigen availability and antigen-presenting cell (APC) populations may affect LN expansion. Compared to LNs of mice given the full MPS vaccine, LNs of mice given an MPS vaccine without antigen became prominently less enlarged and contracted sooner.To identify potential mediators of this differential, antigen-dependent response, we next focused the analysis of our scRNA-seq dataset on LN APC populations.

Project description:The response to mRNA vaccines needs to be sufficient for immune cell activation and recruitment but moderate enough to ensure efficacious antigen expression. The choice of the cap structure and use of N1-methylpseudouridine (m1Ψ) instead of uridine, which have been shown to reduce RNA sensing by the cellular innate immune system, has led to improved efficacy of mRNA vaccine platforms. Understanding how RNA modifications influence the cell intrinsic immune response may help in the development of more effective mRNA vaccines. In the current study, we compared mRNA vaccines in mice against influenza virus using three different mRNA formats: uridine-containing mRNA (D1-uRNA), m1Ψ- modified mRNA (D1-modRNA), and m1Ψ-modified mRNA with a cap1 structure (cC1-modRNA). D1-uRNA vaccine induced a significantly different gene expression profile to the modified mRNA vaccines, with an upregulation of Stat1 and RnaseL, and increased systemic inflammation. This correlated with a significantly reduced antigen specific antibody responses and reduced protection against influenza virus infection compared to D1-modRNA and cC1-modRNA. Incorporation of m1Ψ alone without cap1 improved antibodies, but both modifications were required for the optimum response. Therefore, the incorporation of m1Ψ and cap1 alters protective immunity from mRNA vaccines by altering the innate immune response to the vaccine material

Project description:Antigen presenting dendritic cells (DCs) and monocytes capture and transport antigens from barrier tissues for presentation to antigen-specific T cells in the draining-lymph nodes (LNs). While DCs enter LNs through afferent lymphatics in a CCR7-dependent manner, how exactly antigen-carrying monocytes reach LNs is less clear since monocytes do not express CCR7 and can also enter LNs via the bloodstream. In steady state, and following injection of several PAMPs, scRNA-seq data on LN mononuclear phagocytes identified LN resident versus migratory type 1 and type 2 conventional (c)DCs despite downregulation of DC subset-defining transcripts, such as Xcr1, Clec9a, H2-Ab1, Sirpa, and Clec10a on migratory cDCs. Migratory cDCs gained expression of transcripts controlling cellular migration such as Ccr7, Ccl17, Ccl22, and Ccl5, while migratory monocytes expressed Ccr5 without Ccr7. Using two tracking methods and a gating strategy that clearly distinguishes migratory CD88hiCD26lo monocytes from CD88-CD26hi cDCs, we found that both captured antigens in the lung and migrated to lung-draining LNs. Using global and mixed-chimeric Ccl5-, Ccr2-, Ccr5-, Ccr7-, and Batf3-deficient mice, we found that CCR5+ monocytes follow CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs to reach the draining LN via lymphatic vessels. In a model of asthma, such recruited monocytes regulated the induction of type 2 immunity. Overall, our data suggest that CCL5-secreting migratory cDCs lay down the chemokine trail for CCR5+ antigen-presenting monocytes to reach draining lymph nodes and regulate adaptive immunity.

Project description:Abatacept is a recombinant CTLA-4 moleculed fused to a mutated human IgG molecule, which is clinically used in rheumatoid arthritis by inhibiting CD28-costimulation. This study aimed to inverstigate the ability of abatacept -mediated costimulation blockade to induce antigen-specific tolerance during primary immune responses. This is important as some studies have suggested that costimulation blockade can lead to CD4+ T cell anergy which could be beneficial for early therapy of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. In addition we also investigated the effect that abatacept has on CD11c+ antigen presenting cells. This is important as costimulation blocakde can affect the biderectional interaction between CD4+ T cells and CD11c+ cells influencing the immunological outcome. We used microarrays to identify if abatacept treatment leads to antigen specific anergy using transgenic animals and models of priming and oral tolerance that established a synchronised monoclonal response. In addition this magnified the effect on the CD11c+ antigen presenting cells. This study included 5 experimental groups. DO11.10 RAG2-/- mice have CD4+ T cells specific for the ovalbumin (OVA) peptide OVA323-339. These mice were immunised with CFA/OVA s.c. (primed group) or tolerised by feeding with OVA (50mg/kg) in the drinking water. CD4+ cells were isolated 10 days post immunisation from draining lymph nodes (LNs) of unimmunised (pooled LNs and Spleen), orally tolerised (mesenteric LNs), primed (axillary LNs), primed treated with control IgG (axillary LNs) and primed treated with abatacept (axillary LNs). For CD11c+ cells cells were isolated by pooled secondary lymphoid organs (LNs and spleen).

Project description:CD4 T cells promote innate and adaptive immune responses, but how vaccine-elicited CD4 T cells contribute to immune protection remains unclear. Here we evaluated whether induction of virus-specific CD4 T cells by vaccination would protect mice against infection with chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). Immunization with vaccines that selectively induced CD4 T cell responses resulted in catastrophic inflammation and mortality following challenge with a persistent form of LCMV. Immunopathology required antigen-specific CD4 T cells and was associated with a cytokine storm, generalized inflammation, and multi-organ system failure. Virus-specific CD8 T cells or antibodies abrogated the pathology. These data demonstrate that vaccine-elicited CD4 T cells in the absence of effective antiviral immune responses can trigger lethal immunopathology. Splenic GP66-specific CD4 T cells from mice immunized with either a LMwt vaccine (sham) or LMgp61 vaccine (CD4 vaccine) were purified by FACS on day 8 post-infection with LCMV clone 13

Project description:Live attenuated vaccines are often superior to dead vaccines, yet the immunological mechanisms remain largely obscure. We have recently uncovered an inherent capacity of antigen-presenting cells (APC) to discriminate live from killed bacteria by virtue of vita-PAMPs. Here we found that innate recognition of bacterial viability strongly promotes the differentiation of fully functional T follicular helper (TFH) cells. We identify TLR8 and its signaling adaptor MyD88 as critical sensor for bacterial viability in human APC, activation of which is required and sufficient to induce selective transcriptional remodeling and the production of TFH promoting signals like IL-12. Activators of other TLRs including licensed vaccine adjuvants fail to do so. Consequently, vita-PAMP receptors such as TLR8 represent promising targets for adjuvants to improve the efficacy of modern inanimate subunit vaccines. Human monocytes were infected with live or heat-killed E. coli for 6h.

Project description:The skin plays a crucial role in host defences against microbial attack and the innate cells must provide the immune system with sufficient information to organize these defences. This unique feature makes the skin a promising site for vaccine administration. Although cellular innate immune events during vaccination have been widely studied, initial events remain poorly understood. Our aim is to determine molecular biomarkers of skin innate reaction after intradermal (i.d.) immunization. Using an ex vivo human explant model from healthy donors, we investigated by NanoLC-MS/MS analysis and MALDI-MSI imaging, to detect innate molecular events (lipids, metabolites, proteins) few hours after i.d. administration of seasonal trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV). This multimodel approach allowed to identify early molecules differentially expressed in dermal and epidermal layers at 4 and 18 h after TIV immunization compared with control PBS. In the dermis, the most relevant network of proteins upregulated were related to cell-to-cell signaling and cell trafficking. The molecular signatures detected were associated with chemokines such as CXCL8, a chemoattractant of neutrophils. In the epidermis, the most relevant networks were associated with activation of antigen-presenting cells and related to CXCL10. Our study proposes a novel step-forward approach to identify biomarkers of skin innate reaction.

Project description:Despite the success of currently authorized vaccines for the reduction of severe COVID-19 disease risk, rapidly emerging viral variants continue to drive pandemic waves of infection, resulting in numerous global public health challenges. Progress will depend on future advances in prophylactic vaccine activity, including advancement of candidates capable of generating more potent induction of cross-reactive T cells and durable cross-reactive antibody responses. Here we evaluated an Amphiphile (AMP) adjuvant, AMP-CpG, admixed with SARS-CoV-2 Spike receptor binding domain (RBD) immunogen, as a lymph node-targeted protein subunit vaccine (ELI-005) in mice and non-human primates (NHPs). AMP-mediated targeting of CpG DNA to draining lymph nodes resulted in comprehensive local immune activation characterized by extensive transcriptional reprogramming, inflammatory proteomic milieu, and activation of innate immune cells as key orchestrators of antigen-directed adaptive immunity. Prime-boost immunization with AMP-CpG in mice induced potent and durable T cell responses in multiple anatomical sites critical for prophylactic efficacy and prevention of severe disease. Long-lived memory responses were rapidly expanded upon re-exposure to antigen. In parallel, RBD-specific antibodies were long-lived, and exhibited cross-reactive recognition of variant RBD. AMP-CpG-adjuvanted prime-boost immunization in NHPs was safe and well tolerated, while promoting multi-cytokine-producing circulating T cell responses cross-reactive across variants of concern (VOC). Expansion of RBD-specific germinal center (GC) B cells in lymph nodes correlated to rapid seroconversion with variant-specific neutralizing antibody responses exceeding those measured in convalescent human plasma. These results demonstrate the promise of lymph-node adjuvant-targeting to coordinate innate immunity and generate robust adaptive responses critical for vaccine efficacy.
