    To evaluate the antibody response following the initial four doses of mRNA vaccines (BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273) in SARS-CoV-2-naïve healthy adults and investigate factors influencing antibody titer increases, this prospective cohort study was conducted in Japan from March 2021. The study included participants who received either the 1st and 2nd doses (n = 467), 3rd dose (n = 157), or 4th dose (n = 89). Blood samples were collected before and up to 6 months after each dose, and anti-receptor-binding domain antibody levels were measured. Multivariate analysis (usin multiple linear regression or linear mixed models) revealed several factors significantly associated with higher post-vaccination antibody levels, including mRNA-1273 vaccine (after the 1st and 2nd dose), male gender (after the 3rd and 4th doses), younger age (after the 1st and 2nd dose), non-smoking status (after the 2nd dose), non-use of immunosuppressive agents (after the 1st dose), higher pre-vaccination antibody titers (after the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th doses), and higher post-vaccination fever (after the 2nd and 4th doses). Furthermore, longer intervals since the last dose were significantly associated with higher antibody levels after the 3rd and 4th doses. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing vaccination strategies.

    Abstract

    Background

    Chagas disease can lead to life-threatening cardiac manifestations. Regional factors, including genetic characteristics of circulating Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), have attracted attention as likely determinants of Chagas disease phenotypic expression and Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCM) progression. Our objective was to elucidate the differential transcriptomic signatures of cardiomyocytes resulting from infection with genetically discrete T. cruzi strains and explore their relationships with CCM pathogenesis and progression.

    Methods

    HL-1 rodent cardiomyocytes were infected with T. cruzi trypomastigotes of the Colombian, Y, or Tulahuen strain. RNA was serially isolated post-infection for microarray analysis. Enrichment analyses of differentially expressed genes (fold-change ≥ 2 or ≤ 0.5) highlighted over-represented biological pathways. Intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were compared between T. cruzi-infected and non-infected HL-1 cardiomyocytes.

    Results

    We found that oxidative stress-related gene ontology terms (GO terms), ‘Hypertrophy model’, ‘Apoptosis’, and ‘MAPK signaling’ pathways (all with P < 0.01) were upregulated. ‘Glutathione and one-carbon metabolism’ pathway, and ‘Cellular nitrogen compound metabolic process’ GO term (all with P < 0.001) were upregulated exclusively in the cardiomyocytes infected with the Colombian/Y strains. Mean intracellular levels of ROS were significantly higher in the T. cruzi-infected cardiomyocytes compared to the non-infected (P < 0.0001).

    Conclusions

    The upregulation of oxidative stress-related and hypertrophic pathways constitutes the universal hallmarks of the cardiomyocyte response elicited by T. cruzi infection. Nitrogen metabolism upregulation and glutathione metabolism imbalance may implicate a relationship between nitrosative stress and poor oxygen radicals scavenging in the unique pathophysiology of Chagas cardiomyopathy.

    BACKGROUND: Cross-neutralizing capacity of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 variants is important in mitigating (re-)exposures. Role of antibody maturation, the process whereby selection of higher affinity antibodies augments host immunity, to determine SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing capacity was investigated. METHODS: Sera from SARS-CoV-2 convalescents at 2-, 6-, or 10-months post-recovery, and BNT162b2 vaccine recipients at 3- or 25-weeks post-vaccination, were analyzed. Anti-spike IgG avidity was measured on urea-treated ELISAs. Neutralizing capacity was assessed by surrogate neutralization assays. Fold change between variant and wild-type neutralization inferred the breadth of neutralizing capacity. RESULTS: Compared with early-convalescence, avidity indices of late-convalescent sera were significantly higher (median 37.7 (interquartile range 28.4-45.1) vs. 64.9 (57.5-71.5), p < 0.0001). Urea-resistant, high-avidity IgG best predicted neutralizing capacity (Spearman's r = 0.49 vs. 0.67 (wild-type); 0.18-0.52 vs. 0.48-0.83 (variants)). Higher-avidity convalescent sera better cross-neutralized SARS-CoV-2 variants (p < 0.001 (Alpha); p < 0.01 (Delta and Omicron)). Vaccinees only experienced meaningful avidity maturation following the booster dose, exhibiting rather limited cross-neutralizing capacity at week-25. CONCLUSIONS: Avidity maturation was progressive beyond acute recovery from infection, or became apparent after the booster vaccine dose, granting broader anti-SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing capacity. Understanding the maturation kinetics of the two building blocks of anti-SARS-CoV-2 humoral immunity is crucial.

    Past severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is an important determinant of protection from reinfection and of postvaccine immune responses. Herein, we conducted a follow-up analysis of health care workers previously infected with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with the aim of evaluating different immunoassays for their capability in detecting the waning anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune responses and accuracy in documenting past SARS-CoV-2 infections. We evaluated serum antinucleocapsid antibody levels in convalescent individuals following a 1.5-year interval from SARS-CoV-2 infection. Three different commercial immunoassays that qualitatively measure serum antibodies targeting the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein, namely, the Abbott Architect SARS-CoV-2 IgG, the Euroimmun anti-SARS-CoV-2 NCP enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) IgG, and the Roche Elecsys anti-SARS-CoV-2, were tested for comparison of detectability. A total of 38 individuals consented to participating in this follow-up analysis. From assay to assay, seropositivity rate at 18 months from infection varied from lowest at 42% to highest at 92%. The Roche Elecsys immunoassay, dependent on the dual-antigen antibody detection method and tuned for the detection of high avidity antibodies, was most capable of accurately documenting past SARS-CoV-2 infections. Different immunoassays showed variable capability of determining previous infection status under waning antibody concentrations. Immunoassays with lower detection limits are to be selected, and adjusted thresholds are to be considered in order to maximize the tests' performance. IMPORTANCE Past SARS-CoV-2 infection is an important determinant of protection from reinfection and of postvaccine immune responses. Our results show that different immunoassays, by design, harbor variable capability of tracking SARS-CoV-2 infection under waning antibody concentrations. With each recovered patient standing at a unique time point along the decline curve of antibodies, precise estimation of COVID-19 cumulative incidence remains a challenge. Since future surveillance studies will be targeting more than ever heterogenous cohorts, selecting the appropriate immunoassay is crucial in order to assure reliable decisions about an individual's previous infection status.

    Recently, immune response to coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has attracted attention where an association between higher antibody titer and worsening disease severity has been reported. However, our experiences with severe COVID-19 patients with low antibody titers led to hypothesizing that suppressed humoral immune response may be associated with poorer prognosis in severe COVID19. In this study, antibody titers in severe COVID19 patients were measured at 7, 10, 12, and 14 days after onset. Patients were divided into survivors and non-survivors. SARS-CoV-2 IgM in survivors and non-survivors were 0.06 AU and 0.02 AU (P = 0.048) at 10 days, 0.1 AU and 0.03 AU (P = 0.02) at 12 days, and 0.17 AU and 0.06 AU (P = 0.02) at 14 days. IgG in survivors and non-survivors were 0.01 AU and 0.01 AU (P = 0.04) at 7 days, 0.42 AU and 0.01 AU (P = 0.04) at 12 days, and 0.42 AU and 0.01 AU (P = 0.02) at 14 days. Multivariate analysis showed better survival among patients with IgM positivity at 12 days (P = 0.04), IgG positivity at 12 days (P = 0.04), IgM positivity at 14 days (P = 0.008), and IgG positivity at 14 days (P = 0.005). In severe COVID-19, low antibody titers on days 12 and 14 after onset were associated with poorer prognosis.

    <p>There is currently no evidence that a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mRNA vaccine might be associated with the development of autoimmune hemolytic anemia or disease progression in patients with mature B-cell neoplasm. Our patient was a 71-year-old man with indolent mature B-cell neoplasm who had been monitored for many years without treatment. After receiving the second dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, he developed severe warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Although steroid therapy improved his anemia, he continued to develop IgM-monoclonal gammopathy, renal insufficiency, and splenomegaly. He was diagnosed with splenic marginal zone lymphoma after undergoing splenectomy. The splenectomy improved the patient’s symptoms. We assessed his SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody response, but the patient’s serologic response to the vaccine was impaired. In patients with mature B-cell neoplasm, a non-specific immune response after vaccination might be associated with paraneoplastic syndromes.</p>

    <p>A 73-year-old man previously treated with rituximab for his mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma suffered a suboptimal humoral immune response against an acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection. A detailed serological description revealed discrepant antigen-specific humoral immune responses. The titer of spike-targeting, "viral-neutralizing" antibodies remained below the detection level, in contrast to the anti-nucleocapsid, "binding" antibody response, which was comparable in both magnitude and kinetics. Accordingly, viral neutralizability and clearance was delayed, leading to prolonged RNAemia and persistent pneumonia. The present case highlights the need to closely monitor this unique population of recipients of B-cell-targeted therapies for their neutralizing antibody responses against SARS-CoV-2. </p>

    We describe the results of testing health care workers, from a tertiary care hospital in Japan that had experienced a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak during the first peak of the pandemic, for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-specific antibody seroconversion. Using two chemiluminescent immunoassays and a confirmatory surrogate virus neutralization test, serological testing revealed that a surprising 42% of overlooked COVID-19 diagnoses (27/64 cases) occurred when case detection relied solely on SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT). Our results suggest that the NAAT-positive population is only the tip of the iceberg and the portion left undetected might potentially have led to silent transmissions and triggered the spread. A questionnaire-based risk assessment was further indicative of exposures to specific aerosol-generating procedures (i.e., noninvasive ventilation and airway suctioning) having mediated transmission and served as the origins of the outbreak. Our observations are supportive of a multitiered testing approach, including the use of serological diagnostics, in order to accomplish exhaustive case detection along the whole COVID-19 spectrum. IMPORTANCE We describe the results of testing frontline health care workers, from a hospital in Japan that had experienced a COVID-19 outbreak, for SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies. Antibody testing revealed that a surprising 42% of overlooked COVID-19 diagnoses occurred when case detection relied solely on PCR-based viral detection. COVID-19 clusters have been continuously striking the health care system around the globe. Our findings illustrate that such clusters are lined with hidden infections eluding detection with diagnostic PCR and that the cluster burden in total is more immense than actually recognized. The mainstays of diagnosing infectious diseases, including COVID-19, generally consist of two approaches, one aiming to detect molecular fragments of the invading pathogen and the other to measure immune responses of the host. Considering antibody testing as one trustworthy option to test our way through the pandemic can aid in the exhaustive case detection of COVID-19 patients with variable presentations.

    BACKGROUND: The gold standard for coronavirus disease (COVID-19) diagnosis has been the detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA by nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT). On the other hand, serological testing for COVID-19 may offer advantages in detecting possibly overlooked infections by NAAT. METHODS: To evaluate seroconversion of NAAT-negative pneumonia patients, immunoglobulin M (IgM) and IgG targeting the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 were semiquantified by an immunofluorescence assay. Seroconversion was confirmed by another serological method, targeting the nucleocapsid protein. RESULTS: Eight suspected but unconfirmed COVID-19 pneumonia patients (median age, 39 years; range, 21-55) were included. The median period between symptom onset and NAAT sample collection was 6 days (2-27 days). None of them had tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by NAAT. In contrast, all eight patients revealed seropositivity with the two serological methods, indicating actual seroconversion against SARS-CoV-2. The median period between onset and blood sampling was 26.5 days (7-51 days). CONCLUSION: Eight patients with COVID-19 pneumonia, initially tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 by NAAT, were finally confirmed of the diagnosis by serological testing. To cover the whole spectrum of this heterogenous infectious disease, serology testing should be implemented to the multitiered diagnostic algorithm for COVID-19.

    BACKGROUND: Variants in the LZTR1 (leucine-zipper-like transcription regulator 1) gene (OMIM #600574) have been reported in recessive Noonan syndrome patients. In vivo evidence from animal models to support its causative role is lacking. METHODS: By CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing, we generated lztr1-mutated zebrafish (Danio rerio). Analyses of histopathology and downstream signaling were performed to investigate the pathogenesis of cardiac and extracardiac abnormalities in Noonan syndrome. RESULTS: A frameshift deletion allele was created in the zebrafish lztr1. Crosses of heterozygotes obtained homozygous lztr1 null mutants that modeled LZTR1 loss-of-function. Histological analyses of the model revealed ventricular hypertrophy, the deleterious signature of Noonan syndrome-associated cardiomyopathy. Further, assessment for extracardiac abnormalities documented multiple vascular malformations, resembling human vascular pathology caused by RAS/MAPK activation. Due to spatiotemporal regulation of LZTR1, its downstream function was not fully elucidated from western blots of adult tissue. CONCLUSION: Our novel zebrafish model phenocopied human recessive Noonan syndrome and supported the loss-of-function mechanism of disease-causing LZTR1 variants. The discovery of vascular malformations in mutants calls for the clinical follow-up of patients to monitor for its emergence. The model will serve as a novel platform for investigating the pathophysiology linking RAS/MAPK signaling to cardiac and vascular pathology.

    Concomitant heart failure is associated with poor clinical outcome in dialysis patients. The arteriovenous shunt, created as vascular access for hemodialysis, increases ventricular volume-overload, predisposing patients to developing cardiac dysfunction. The integral function of mitochondrial respiration is critically important for the heart to cope with hemodynamic overload. The involvement, however, of mitochondrial activity or reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the pathogenesis of ventricular-overload-induced heart failure has not been fully elucidated. We herein report that disorganization of mitochondrial respiration increases mitochondrial ROS production in the volume-overloaded heart, leading to ventricular dysfunction. We adopted the murine arteriovenous fistula (AVF) model, which replicates the cardinal features of volume-overload-induced ventricular dysfunction. Enzymatic assays of cardiac mitochondria revealed that the activities of citrate synthase and NADH-quinone reductase (complex Ⅰ) were preserved in the AVF heart. In contrast, the activity of NADH oxidase supercomplex was significantly compromised, resulting in elevated ROS production. Importantly, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine prevented the development of ventricular dilatation and cardiac dysfunction, suggesting a pathogenic role for ROS in dialysis-related cardiomyopathy. A cardioprotective effect was also observed in metformin-treated mice, illuminating its potential use in the management of heart failure complicating diabetic patients on dialysis.

    <p>Myocardial infarction (MI) occurs when the heart muscle is severely damaged due to a decrease in blood flow from the coronary arteries. During recovery from an MI, cardiac fibroblasts become activated and produce extracellular matrices, contributing to the wound healing process in the damaged heart. Inappropriate activation of the fibroblasts leads to excessive fibrosis in the heart. However, the molecular pathways by which cardiac fibroblasts are activated have not yet been fully elucidated.</p><p>Here we show that serum deprivation, which recapitulates the cellular microenvironment of the MI area, strikingly induces collagen production in C3H/10T1/2 cells. Based on transcriptomic and pharmacological studies, we found that cell cycle perturbation is directly linked to collagen production in fibroblasts. Importantly, collagen synthesis is increased independently of the transcriptional levels of type I collagen genes. These results reveal a novel mode of fibroblast activation in the ischemic area, which will allow us to gain insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac fibrosis and establish a basis for anti-fibrotic therapy.</p>

    心臓線維芽細胞活性化の分子機序について検討した。マウス線維芽細胞系C3H/10T1/2を、心筋梗塞(MI)後の細胞微小環境を再現した血清枯渇下で培養し、細胞外マトリックス産生に影響する成長因子または栄養素欠乏の影響について検討した。血清枯渇状態では、当該細胞におけるコラーゲン産生が顕著に促進され、血清枯渇線維芽細胞上澄みのコラーゲン含量はTGF-βで刺激した線維芽細胞よりも多かった。また当該細胞の遺伝子発現プロファイルにおよぼす血清枯渇の役割を、トランスクリプトーム解析と遺伝子発現解析により検討した結果、血清枯渇環境では709遺伝子の転写物レベルが減少し、260遺伝子の転写物レベルが情報制御されていた。またサイクリンA2、B2、ゲミニン遺伝子を含む細胞周期関連遺伝子の転写物レベルは、血清枯渇環境で有意に減少していた。さらに当該細胞の細胞周期阻害によるコラーゲン産生の検討から、細胞周期の攪乱は線維芽細胞のコラーゲン産生に直接関連し、特にコラーゲン合成はI型コラーゲン遺伝子の転写レベルとは無関係に増加していることが示された。虚血領域における線維芽細胞活性化の新たな様式が明らかとなった。

    The fibrogenic response in tissue-resident fibroblasts is determined by the balance between activation and repression signals from the tissue microenvironment. While the molecular pathways by which transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-β1) activates pro-fibrogenic mechanisms have been extensively studied and are recognized critical during fibrosis development, the factors regulating TGF-β1 signaling are poorly understood. Here we show that macrophage hypoxia signaling suppresses excessive fibrosis in a heart via oncostatin-m (OSM) secretion. During cardiac remodeling, Ly6Chi monocytes/macrophages accumulate in hypoxic areas through a hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α dependent manner and suppresses cardiac fibroblast activation. As an underlying molecular mechanism, we identify OSM, part of the interleukin 6 cytokine family, as a HIF-1α target gene, which directly inhibits the TGF-β1 mediated activation of cardiac fibroblasts through extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2-dependent phosphorylation of the SMAD linker region. These results demonstrate that macrophage hypoxia signaling regulates fibroblast activation through OSM secretion in vivo.
