Lot release testing of diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis vaccines traditionally relied on in vivo protection models involving challenge of laboratory animals with toxins. Meanwhile, many labs have switched to serological testing of these vaccines, which is often performed in separate in vivo assays, even if all components were formulated into one vaccine product. Here we describe the results of simultaneous serological potency determination of diphtheria (D), tetanus (T) and acellular pertussis (aP) antigens obtained following immunization of guinea pigs with multicomponent pediatric and booster vaccines from different manufacturers. The 4th World Health Organization (WHO) International Standard (IS) for diphtheria toxoid (No. 07/216) and the 4th WHO IS for tetanus toxoid (No. 08/218) were used as reference preparations. For aP, a pediatric vaccine batch containing the antigens pertussis toxoid, filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin and fimbriae proteins type 2/3 was established as internal control. Quantification of IgG against D, T and aP antigens in guinea pig sera was performed using a hexaplex electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. We further provide proof-of-concept using experimental vaccine samples lacking or containing reduced amounts of diphtheria toxoid in the presence of full amounts of tetanus and pertussis antigens and alum adjuvant. Importantly, the assay confirmed dose-response relationships for all antigens tested and was able to detect diphtheria out-of-specification batches. The results confirmed the suitability of the protocol for combined serology batch release testing of DTaP combination vaccines as first measure towards implementation of full in vitro testing of DTaP vaccines. This report summarizes the data and the protocol used for validation prior to implementation of this method in routine batch release testing of DTaP vaccines, which led to replacement of in vivo challenge experiments in our laboratory following the 3 R (replace, reduce, refine) principle.

白喉、破伤风和无细胞百日咳疫苗的批签发测试传统上依赖于体内保护模型,包括用毒素挑战实验动物。与此同时,许多实验室已转而对这些疫苗进行血清学检测,而血清学检测通常是在单独的体内试验中进行的,即使所有成分都已配制成一种疫苗产品。在此,我们介绍了不同生产商生产的多组分儿科疫苗和加强免疫疫苗免疫豚鼠后,对白喉(D)、破伤风(T)和无细胞百日咳(aP)抗原同时进行血清学效价测定的结果。白喉类毒素的第四版世界卫生组织国际标准(IS)(编号 07/216)和破伤风类毒素的第四版世界卫生组织国际标准(IS)(编号 08/218)被用作参考制剂。对于 aP,则以含有百日咳类毒素、丝状血凝素、百日咳素和 2/3 型缘膜蛋白质抗原的儿科疫苗批次作为内部对照。豚鼠血清中针对 D、T 和 aP 抗原的 IgG 定量是通过六联电化学发光免疫测定法进行的。我们使用缺乏或含有少量白喉类毒素的实验疫苗样品,在存在全量破伤风和百日咳抗原及明矾佐剂的情况下,进一步证明了这一概念。重要的是,该检测方法证实了所有测试抗原的剂量反应关系,并能检测出白喉超标批次。结果证实了该方案适用于白喉、破伤风和百日咳联合疫苗的联合血清学批次释放测试,是实施白喉、破伤风和百日咳联合疫苗全面体外测试的第一步。本报告总结了在 DTaP 疫苗常规批签发测试中实施该方法之前用于验证的数据和方案,这导致我们实验室按照 3R(替换、减少、改进)原则替换了体内挑战实验。

Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) vaccine breakthrough (VBT) infections are not uncommon in endemic areas. The clinical and immunological outcomes have been poorly investigated. We assessed the magnitude and specificity of virus-specific antibody and T cell responses after TBE in previously vaccinated subjects and compared the results with those of unvaccinated TBE patients and study subjects that received vaccination without VBT infection. Symptomatic TBEV infection of unvaccinated study subjects induced virus-specific antibody responses to the E protein and non-structural protein 1 (NS1) as well as T cell responses to structural and other non-structural (NS) proteins. After VBT infections, significantly impaired NS1-specific antibody responses were observed, while the virus-specific T cell responses to the NS proteins were relatively strong. VBT infection caused predominantly moderate to severe disease during hospitalization. The level of TBEV EDIII- and NS1-specific antibodies in unvaccinated convalescent patients inversely correlated with TBE severity and neurological symptoms early after infection.

蜱传脑炎病毒(TBEV)疫苗突破(VBT)感染在流行地区并不少见。有关其临床和免疫学结果的研究很少。我们评估了之前接种过疫苗的受试者在 TBE 后病毒特异性抗体和 T 细胞反应的强度和特异性,并将其结果与未接种过疫苗的 TBE 患者和接种过疫苗但未感染 VBT 的受试者的结果进行了比较。未接种疫苗的研究对象感染 TBEV 后会出现 E 蛋白和非结构蛋白 1 (NS1) 的病毒特异性抗体反应,以及结构蛋白和其他非结构蛋白 (NS) 的 T 细胞反应。VBT感染后,NS1特异性抗体反应明显减弱,而病毒特异性T细胞对NS蛋白的反应则相对较强。在住院期间,VBT 感染主要导致中度到重度疾病。未接种疫苗的康复患者体内的TBEV EDIII和NS1特异性抗体水平与TBE的严重程度和感染后早期的神经症状成反比。

A randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, first-in-human, phase 1 study was conducted in healthy Korean adults to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of EuNmCV-5, a new pentavalent meningococcal vaccine targeting serogroups A, C, W, X, and Y. Sixty participants randomly received a single dose of either EuNmCV-5 or MenACWY-CRM, a quadrivalent vaccine containing serogroups A, C, W, and Y. Safety was assessed through monitoring anaphylactic reactions, adverse events for 28 days, and serious adverse events over 180 days. Immunogenicity was assessed via rabbit complement-dependent serum bactericidal antibody (rSBA) assay. EuNmCV-5 was safe, well-tolerated, and elicited a substantial antibody titer increase. The seroprotection rates exceeded 96.7%, and the seroconversion rates were over 85% for all the targeted serogroups. It showed higher seroconversion rates against serogroups A and C (p = 0.0016 and 0.0237, respectively) and elicited a substantial increase in GMT for all targeted serogroups compared to the MenACWY-CRM.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05739292.

In 2022, the Australian Government listed the koala as endangered in several states due to habitat destruction, traffic strikes, dog attacks, and Chlamydia pecorum disease. This study evaluates a 10-year assessment of a Major Outer Membrane Protein-based vaccine's effectiveness against chlamydial disease in wild koalas from Southeast Queensland. Over a decade, 680 koalas were tracked, with five vaccine trials involving 165 koalas. While prior studies only offered up to two years of data, this study's extended period allowed a thorough evaluation of vaccine efficacy. Results showed that vaccinated koalas had significantly lower disease incidence, with a 64% reduction in chlamydial mortality. This vaccine demonstrated positive impacts on both male and female koalas, highlighting its crucial role in conserving the Australian koala population and mitigating the threats they face.

2022 年,由于栖息地遭到破坏、交通事故、狗的袭击以及啄木鸟衣原体疾病,澳大利亚政府将多个州的考拉列为濒危物种。本研究评估了一种基于主要外膜蛋白质的疫苗在昆士兰东南部野生考拉中预防衣原体疾病的十年效果。十年间,共对 680 只考拉进行了跟踪调查,其中五次疫苗试验涉及 165 只考拉。以前的研究最多只能提供两年的数据,而这项研究延长了时间,可以对疫苗的功效进行全面评估。结果显示,接种疫苗的考拉发病率明显降低,衣原体死亡率降低了 64%。这种疫苗对雄性和雌性考拉都产生了积极影响,凸显了它在保护澳大利亚考拉种群和减轻它们面临的威胁方面的重要作用。

Avian influenza poses a severe threat to poultry production and global food security, prompting the development of vaccination programs in numerous countries. Modified live virus (MLV) vaccines, with their potential for mass application, offer a distinct advantage over existing options. However, concerns surrounding reversion, recombination, and unintended transmission have hindered the progress of MLV development for avian influenza in poultry. To address these concerns, we engineered reassortment-impaired, non-transmissible, safe, immunogenic, and protective MLVs through the rearrangement of internal gene segments and additional modifications to the surface gene segments HA and NA. The unique peptide marker aspartic acid-arginine-proline-alanine-valine-isoleucine-alanine-asparragine (DRPAVIAN) was incorporated into HA, while NA was modified to encode the chicken interleukin-18 (ckIL18) gene (MLV-H9N2-IL). In vitro, the MLV-H9N2 and MLV-H9N2-IL candidates demonstrated stability and virus titers comparable to the wild-type H9N2 strain. In chickens, the MLV-H9N2 and MLV-H9N2-IL candidates did not transmit via direct contact. Co-infection studies with wild-type virus confirmed that the altered HA and NA segments exhibited fitness disadvantages and did not reassort. Vaccinated chickens showed no clinical signs upon vaccination, all seroconverted, and the inclusion of ckIL18 in the MLV-H9N2-IL vaccine enhanced neutralizing antibody production. A significant decrease in viral loads post-challenge underscored the protective effect of the MLVs. The MLV-H9N2-IL vaccine, administered via drinking water, proved immunogenic in chickens in a dose-dependent manner, generating protective levels of neutralizing antibodies upon aggressive homologous virus challenge. In summary, this study lays the groundwork for safe MLVs against avian influenza suitable for mass vaccination efforts.

禽流感对家禽生产和全球食品安全构成严重威胁,促使许多国家制定了疫苗接种计划。改良活病毒 (MLV) 疫苗具有大规模应用的潜力,与现有方案相比具有明显优势。然而,围绕还原、重组和意外传播的担忧阻碍了针对家禽禽流感的 MLV 开发进程。为了解决这些问题,我们通过对内部基因片段进行重排,并对表面基因片段 HA 和 NA 进行额外修饰,设计出了重排受损、不可传播、安全、免疫原性和保护性的 MLV。在 HA 中加入了独特的肽标记天冬氨酸-精氨酸-脯氨酸-丙氨酸-缬氨酸-异亮氨酸-丙氨酸-天冬酰胺(DRPAVIAN),而 NA 则被修饰为编码鸡白细胞介素-18(ckIL18)基因(MLV-H9N2-IL)。在体外,MLV-H9N2 和 MLV-H9N2-IL 候选株表现出与野生型 H9N2 株相当的稳定性和病毒滴度。在鸡体内,MLV-H9N2 和 MLV-H9N2-IL 候选株不会通过直接接触传播。与野生型病毒的共感染研究证实,改变的 HA 和 NA 片段表现出适应性劣势,不会发生重配。接种疫苗的鸡在接种后没有出现任何临床症状,所有鸡都发生了血清转换,在 MLV-H9N2-IL 疫苗中加入 ckIL18 可提高中和抗体的产生。挑战后病毒载量的明显降低突出了 MLV 的保护作用。通过饮用水接种的 MLV-H9N2-IL 疫苗证明对鸡具有免疫原性,其免疫原性呈剂量依赖性,在受到同源病毒攻击时可产生保护性的中和抗体。总之,这项研究为开发适合大规模疫苗接种的安全禽流感 MLV 奠定了基础。

This study reports on the immunogenicity and biodistribution of H5 hemagglutinin (HA)-based self-amplifying (sa) mRNA vaccines in mice. Four sa-mRNA vaccines encoding either a secreted full-length HA, a secreted HA head domain, a secreted HA stalk domain, or a full-length membrane-anchored HA were investigated. All vaccines elicited an adaptive immune response. However, the full-length HA sa-RNA vaccines demonstrated superior performance compared to head and stalk domain vaccines. The antibody titers positively correlated with the vaccine dose. Cellular immune responses and antigen-specific IgA antibodies in the lungs were also observed. The comparison of the sa-mRNA vaccines encoding the secreted and membrane-anchored full-length HA revealed that anchoring of the HA to the membrane significantly enhanced the antibody and cellular responses. In addition to the injection site, the intramuscularly injected sa-mRNA-LNPs were also detected in the draining lymph nodes, spleen, and to a lesser extent, in the lung, kidney, liver, and heart.

本研究报告了基于H5血凝素(HA)的自扩增(sa)mRNA疫苗在小鼠体内的免疫原性和生物分布。研究了编码分泌型全长 HA、分泌型 HA 头域、分泌型 HA 柄域或全长膜锚定 HA 的四种 sa-mRNA 疫苗。所有疫苗都引起了适应性免疫反应。不过,与头域和柄域疫苗相比,全长 HA sa-RNA 疫苗表现出更优越的性能。抗体滴度与疫苗剂量呈正相关。肺部也出现了细胞免疫反应和抗原特异性 IgA 抗体。对编码分泌型和膜锚定型全长 HA 的 sa-mRNA 疫苗进行比较后发现,将 HA 固定在膜上可显著增强抗体和细胞反应。除注射部位外,肌肉注射的 sa-mRNA-LNPs 还在引流淋巴结和脾脏中被检测到,其次在肺、肾、肝和心脏中也被检测到。

Recent studies demonstrate that sociopolitical attitudes partially explain variance in (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine hesitancy and uptake. Other attitudes, such as those towards esoteric beliefs, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), and religion, have also been proposed. However, pertinent studies provide limited direction for public health efforts, as the impact of such attitudes has been tested in isolation or on different outcomes. Moreover, related associations between SARS-CoV-2 immunization drivers as well as views towards other modes of immunization (e.g., routine pediatric immunization), remain unclear. Based on a sample of ~7400 survey participants (Germany), where esoteric belief systems and CAM (Waldorf, homeopathy) are rather prevalent, and controlling for other sociological factors, we found that (i) individuals with positive attitudes towards Waldorf education and homeopathy are significantly less likely to have received a (further) dose of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine compared to those with positive views of mainstream medicine; (ii) for the former, immunization decisions are primarily driven by external pressures, and for the latter overwhelmingly by voluntary considerations; (iii) attitudes influencing adult SARS-CoV-2 vaccine uptake similarly influence views towards routine pediatric immunization. Our findings provide significant evidence informing a more nuanced design of public health and communication campaigns, and pertinent policies.

最近的研究表明,社会政治态度可以部分解释(SARS-CoV-2)疫苗接种犹豫和接种率的差异。还提出了其他一些态度,如对神秘信仰、补充和替代医学 (CAM) 以及宗教的态度。然而,相关研究为公共卫生工作提供的指导有限,因为这些态度的影响都是单独测试或对不同结果进行测试的。此外,SARS-CoV-2 免疫驱动因素与对其他免疫方式(如常规儿科免疫)的看法之间的相关联系仍不清楚。在德国,深奥的信仰体系和 CAM(华德福、顺势疗法)相当盛行,基于约 7400 名调查参与者的样本,并控制其他社会学因素,我们发现:(i) 与那些对主流医学持积极态度的人相比,对华德福教育和顺势疗法持积极态度的人接种(进一步)SARS-CoV-2 疫苗的可能性要低得多;(iii) 影响成人接种 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗的态度同样也会影响对常规儿童免疫接种的看法。我们的研究结果提供了重要的证据,有助于更细致地设计公共卫生和宣传活动以及相关政策。

Under the dual pressure of emerging zoonoses and the difficulty in eliminating conventional zoonoses, the strategic management of bird diseases through vaccination represents a highly efficacious approach to disrupting the transmission of zoonotic pathogens to humans. Immunization with a DNA vaccine yielded limited protection against avian pathogen infection. To improve its immunogenicity, the extracellular domain of duck-derived CD40L (designated as dusCD40L) was employed as a bio-adjuvant. Our findings unequivocally established the evolutionary conservation of dusCD40L across avian species. Notably, dusCD40L exhibited a compelling capacity to elicit robust immune responses from both B and T lymphocytes. Furthermore, when employed as an adjuvant, dusCD40L demonstrated a remarkable capacity to significantly augment the titers of neutralizing antibodies and the production of IFNγ elicited by a DNA vaccine encoding the prM-E region of an avian flavivirus, namely, the Tembusu virus (TMUV). Moreover, dusCD40L could strengthen virus clearance of the prM-E DNA vaccine in ducks post-TMUV challenge. This research study presents a highly effective adjuvant for advancing the development of DNA vaccines targeting TMUV in avian hosts. Additionally, it underscores the pivotal role of duCD40L as a potent adjuvant in the context of vaccines designed to combat zoonotic infections in avian species.

在新出现的人畜共患病和难以消除传统人畜共患疾病的双重压力下,通过接种疫苗对禽类疾病进行战略管理是阻断人畜共患病病原体向人类传播的一种高效方法。使用 DNA 疫苗免疫对禽类病原体感染的保护效果有限。为了提高疫苗的免疫原性,我们采用了鸭源 CD40L 的细胞外结构域(命名为 dusCD40L)作为生物佐剂。我们的研究结果明确证实了 dusCD40L 在禽类物种中的进化保护性。值得注意的是,dusCD40L 在诱导 B 淋巴细胞和 T 淋巴细胞产生强有力的免疫反应方面表现出令人信服的能力。此外,在用作佐剂时,dusCD40L 还能显著提高中和抗体滴度,并显著提高编码禽黄病毒(TMUV)prM-E 区域的 DNA 疫苗所诱导的 IFNγ 的产生。此外,dusCD40L还能加强TMUV挑战后鸭对prM-E DNA疫苗的病毒清除。这项研究提出了一种高效的佐剂,可用于推进针对禽类宿主的 TMUV DNA 疫苗的开发。此外,该研究还强调了duCD40L作为一种强效佐剂,在防治禽类人畜共患病疫苗中的关键作用。

In 2022, a genotype IV (GIV) strain of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) caused an unprecedented and widespread outbreak of disease in pigs and humans in Australia. As no veterinary vaccines against JEV are approved in Australia and all current approved human and veterinary vaccines are derived from genotype (G) III JEV strains, we used the recently described insect-specific Binjari virus (BinJV) chimeric flavivirus vaccine technology to produce a JEV GIV vaccine candidate. Herein we describe the production of a chimeric virus displaying the structural prM and E proteins of a JEV GIV isolate obtained from a stillborn piglet (JEVNSW/22) in the genomic backbone of BinJV (BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME). BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME was shown to be antigenically indistinguishable from the JEVNSW/22 parental virus by KD analysis and a panel of JEV-reactive monoclonal antibodies in ELISA. BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME replicated efficiently in C6/36 cells, reaching titres of >107 infectious units/mL - an important attribute for vaccine manufacture. As expected, BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME failed to replicate in a variety of vertebrate cells lines. When used to immunise mice, the vaccine induced a potent virus neutralising response against JEVNSW/22 and to GII and GIII JEV strains. The BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME vaccine provided complete protection against lethal challenge with JEVNSW/22, whilst also providing partial protection against viraemia and disease for the related Murray Valley encephalitis virus. Our results demonstrate that BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME is a promising vaccine candidate against JEV.

2022 年,日本脑炎病毒(JEV)基因型 IV(GIV)毒株在澳大利亚引起了前所未有的猪和人类疾病大爆发。由于澳大利亚尚未批准任何针对 JEV 的兽用疫苗,而目前批准的所有人用和兽用疫苗都来自基因型 (G) III JEV 毒株,因此我们使用了最近描述的昆虫特异性 Binjari 病毒 (BinJV) 嵌合黄病毒疫苗技术来生产 JEV GIV 候选疫苗。在本文中,我们描述了一种嵌合病毒的生产过程,这种病毒在 BinJV(BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME)的基因组骨架中显示了从死胎仔猪(JEVNSW/22)中分离出来的 JEV GIV 的结构蛋白 prM 和 E。通过 KD 分析和 ELISA 中的 JEV 反应性单克隆抗体检测,BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME 与 JEVNSW/22 亲本病毒的抗原性无差别。BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME能在C6/36细胞中高效复制,滴度大于107感染单位/毫升--这是制造疫苗的一个重要属性。不出所料,BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME 未能在多种脊椎动物细胞系中复制。该疫苗用于免疫小鼠时,可诱导出针对 JEVNSW/22 以及 GII 和 GIII JEV 株的强效病毒中和反应。BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME疫苗对JEVNSW/22的致命挑战提供了完全保护,同时也对相关的墨累山谷脑炎病毒的病毒血症和疾病提供了部分保护。我们的研究结果表明,BinJ/JEVNSW/22-prME 是一种很有前途的 JEV 候选疫苗。

Although Omicron RBD of SARS-CoV-2 accumulates many mutations, the backbone region (truncated RBD) of spike protein is highly conserved. Here, we designed several subunit vaccines by keeping the conserved spike backbone region of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 subvariant (S-6P-no-RBD), or inserting the RBD of Delta variant (S-6P-Delta-RBD), Omicron (BA.5) variant (S-6P-BA5-RBD), or ancestral SARS-CoV-2 (S-6P-WT-RBD) to the above backbone construct, and evaluated their ability to induce immune responses and cross-protective efficacy against various SARS-CoV-2 variants and SARS-CoV. Among the four subunit vaccines, S-6P-Delta-RBD protein elicited broad and potent neutralizing antibodies against all SARS-CoV-2 variants tested, including Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta variants, the BA.1, BA.2, BA.2.75, BA.4.6, and BA.5 Omicron subvariants, and the ancestral strain of SARS-CoV-2. This vaccine prevented infection and replication of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron, and completely protected immunized mice against lethal challenge with the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant and SARS-CoV. Sera from S-6P-Delta-RBD-immunized mice protected naive mice against challenge with the Delta variant, with significantly reduced viral titers and without pathological effects. Protection correlated positively with the serum neutralizing antibody titer. Overall, the designed vaccine has potential for development as a universal COVID-19 vaccine and/or a pan-sarbecovirus subunit vaccine that will prevent current and future outbreaks caused by SARS-CoV-2 variants and SARS-related CoVs.

虽然SARS-CoV-2的Omicron RBD积累了许多突变,但尖峰蛋白的骨架区(截短的RBD)却高度保守。在此,我们通过保留 SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 亚变体(S-6P-no-RBD)的保守尖峰骨架区,或插入 Delta 变异体(S-6P-Delta-RBD)、Omicron (BA.5) 变异体(S-6P-BA5)的 RBD,设计了几种亚单位疫苗。变体(S-6P-BA5-RBD)或 SARS-CoV-2 祖先(S-6P-WT-RBD),并评估它们诱导免疫反应的能力以及对各种 SARS-CoV-2 变体和 SARS-CoV 的交叉保护效力。在四种亚单位疫苗中,S-6P-Delta-RBD 蛋白针对所有测试的 SARS-CoV-2 变体(包括 Alpha、Beta、Gamma 和 Delta 变体,BA.1、BA.2、BA.2.75、BA.4.6 和 BA.5 Omicron 亚变体,以及 SARS-CoV-2 的祖先株)激发了广泛而有效的中和抗体。这种疫苗能阻止 SARS-CoV-2 Omicron 的感染和复制,并能完全保护免疫小鼠免受 SARS-CoV-2 Delta 变体和 SARS-CoV 的致命挑战。S-6P-Delta-RBD免疫小鼠的血清能保护天真小鼠免受Delta变体的挑战,病毒滴度显著降低,且无病理影响。保护作用与血清中和抗体滴度呈正相关。总之,所设计的疫苗有潜力发展成为通用的 COVID-19 疫苗和/或泛沙士病毒亚单位疫苗,以预防当前和未来由 SARS-CoV-2 变体和 SARS 相关 CoV 引起的疫情爆发。
