Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) vaccination of cows has elicited broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs). In this study, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are isolated from a clade A (KNH1144 and BG505) vaccinated cow using a heterologous clade B antigen (AD8). CD4 binding site (CD4bs) bNAb (MEL-1872) is more potent than a majority of CD4bs bNAbs isolated so far. MEL-1872 mAb with CDRH3 of 57 amino acids shows more potency (geometric mean half-maximal inhibitory concentration [IC]: 0.009 μg/mL; breadth: 66%) than VRC01 against clade B viruses (29-fold) and than CHO1-31 against tested clade A viruses (21-fold). It also shows more breadth and potency than NC-Cow1, the only other reported anti-HIV-1 bovine bNAb, which has 60% breadth with geometric mean IC of 0.090 μg/mL in this study. Using successive different stable-structured SOSIP trimers in bovines can elicit bNAbs focusing on epitopes ubiquitous across subtypes. Furthermore, the cross-clade selection strategy also results in ultra-potent bNAbs.
人类免疫缺陷病毒 1 型(HIV-1)对奶牛的疫苗接种可引起广泛中和抗体(bnAbs)。在这项研究中,使用异源 clade B 抗原(AD8)从接种 clade A(KNH1144 和 BG505)的奶牛中分离出单克隆抗体(mAb)。CD4 结合位点(CD4bs)bnAb(MEL-1872)比迄今为止分离出的大多数 CD4bs bnAbs 更有效。具有 57 个氨基酸的 CDRH3 的 MEL-1872 mAb 显示出更强的效力(几何平均半最大抑制浓度[IC]:0.009μg/mL;广度:66%),对 clade B 病毒(29 倍)的 VRC01 和对测试的 clade A 病毒(21 倍)的 CHO1-31。与仅有的另一种报道的抗 HIV-1 牛 bnAb(NC-Cow1)相比,它还具有更广泛的广度和效力,该抗体在本研究中的广度为 60%,几何平均 IC 为 0.090μg/mL。在牛中使用连续的不同稳定结构 SOSIP 三聚体可以引发针对普遍存在于所有亚型中的表位的 bnAbs。此外,跨 clade 选择策略也会导致超有效 bnAbs。
