First, to describe SARS-CoV-2 T cell and antibody responses in a prospective cohort of healthcare workers that suffered from mild to moderate COVID-19 approximately one year ago. Second, to assess COVID-19 vaccine-induced immune responses in these prior-infected individuals.
SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell and anti-SARS-CoV-2-Spike-RBD immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses in blood were determined before COVID-19 vaccination with mRNA-1273, BNT162b2, Ad26.CoV2-S or ChAdOx1-S, two weeks after first vaccination, and after second vaccination.
55 prior SARS-CoV-2 infected and seroconverted individuals were included. S1-specific T cell responses and anti-RBD IgG were detectable one year post SARS-CoV-2 infection: 24 spot-forming cells per 10 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (SFCs/10 PBMCs) after S1 stimulation and anti-RBD IgG concentration of 74 (IQR 36-158) IU/mL. Responses after the first and second vaccination were comparable with S1-specfic T cell responses of 198 (IQR 137-359) and 180 (IQR 103-347) SFCs/10 PBMCs, and IgG concentrations of 6792 (IQR 3386-15,180) and 6326 (IQR 2336-13,440) IU/mL, respectively. These responses retained up to four months after vaccination.
Both T cell and IgG responses against SARS-CoV-2 persist for up to one year after COVID-19. A second COVID-19 vaccination in prior-infected individuals did not further increase immune responses in comparison to one vaccination.
首先,描述大约一年前患有轻度至中度 COVID-19 的医疗保健工作者前瞻性队列中 SARS-CoV-2 T 细胞和抗体反应。其次,评估这些既往感染者中 COVID-19 疫苗诱导的免疫反应。
在接种 mRNA-1273、BNT162b2、Ad26.CoV2-S 或 ChAdOx1-S 疫苗之前、首次接种后两周以及第二次接种后,测定血液中 SARS-CoV-2 特异性 T 细胞和抗 SARS-CoV-2-Spike-RBD 免疫球蛋白 G(IgG)反应。
共纳入 55 例既往 SARS-CoV-2 感染和血清转化个体。S1 特异性 T 细胞反应和抗-RBD IgG 在 SARS-CoV-2 感染一年后可检测到:S1 刺激后每 10 个外周血单个核细胞(PBMC)中有 24 个斑点形成细胞(SFC/10 PBMC),抗-RBD IgG 浓度为 74(IQR 36-158)IU/mL。首次和第二次接种后的反应与 S1 特异性 T 细胞反应相当,分别为 198(IQR 137-359)和 180(IQR 103-347)SFC/10 PBMC,IgG 浓度分别为 6792(IQR 3386-15180)和 6326(IQR 2336-13440)IU/mL。这些反应在接种后最多持续四个月。
COVID-19 后,SARS-CoV-2 的 T 细胞和 IgG 反应均可持续长达一年。与单次接种相比,在既往感染者中进行第二次 COVID-19 接种并未进一步增加免疫反应。
