The omicron (B.1.1.529) SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern does not readily infect Syrian hamsters

Rana Abdelnabi et al.

Summary: The infectivity of the omicron variant in hamsters was found to be lower than that of the ancestral D614G strain, with a significant decrease in viral RNA load in the lungs and no detectable infectious virus in this organ. Histopathological examination of the lungs from omicron-infected hamsters revealed no signs of peri-bronchial inflammation or bronchopneumonia.

Activity of convalescent and vaccine serum against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron

Juan Manuel Carreno et al.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, first identified in South Africa and Botswana in November 2021, has rapidly spread globally with high transmissibility. It has an unprecedented number of mutations in its spike gene, leading to immune escape and reduced vaccine efficacy. The neutralizing and binding activity against Omicron varies among individuals with different vaccination and infection histories.

Attenuated replication and pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 B.1.1.529 Omicron

Huiping Shuai et al.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 shows reduced replication ability in human cells and attenuated pathogenicity in mice compared with the wild-type strain and other variants. It has lower efficiency in using TMPRSS2 and causes the lowest reduction in body weight and mortality rate among the tested strains.

Isolation and Genomic Characterization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant Obtained from Human Clinical Specimens

Pragya D. Yadav et al.

Summary: Due to the failure of virus isolation in Vero CCL-81 cells, an in vivo and subsequent in vitro approach were used to isolate the Omicron variant. The virus was successfully isolated from hamster specimens and showed high viral load and cytopathic effects in infected cells. Genome analysis revealed mutations in different host species.

Low dose inocula of SARS-CoV-2 Alpha variant transmits more efficiently than earlier variants in hamsters

Bobo Wing-Yee Mok et al.

Summary: The study found that the Alpha variant of SARS-CoV-2 has increased competitive fitness in a hamster model, replicating and shedding more efficiently in the nasal cavity, which may contribute to its rapid transmission. These results help explain why emerging variants of the virus are more efficient in spreading.

Animal models of SARS-CoV-2 transmission

Rory D. de Vries et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 originated as a zoonotic virus in China in December 2019, leading to the global COVID-19 pandemic with high morbidity and mortality. Vaccines developed at unprecedented speed have shown efficacy in preventing disease, but their ability to interrupt transmission remains uncertain. Furthermore, concerning virus variants are emerging that may be more transmissible and/or less sensitive to immune responses.

Immune memory from SARS-CoV-2 infection in hamsters provides variant-independent protection but still allows virus transmission

Shu Horiuchi et al.

Summary: The study found that the innate immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection was delayed but followed by a pronounced adaptive response, with T cell adoptive transfer reducing virus levels and rapidly inducing specific B cells. SARS-CoV-2-specific T and B cells were able to control infection, but failed to prevent transmission to both naive and vaccinated animals.

Molnupiravir Inhibits Replication of the Emerging SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern in a Hamster Infection Model

Rana Abdelnabi et al.

Summary: The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern has worsened the COVID-19 pandemic, with current monoclonal antibodies and vaccines showing reduced efficacy against some of these variants. However, antivirals targeting conserved proteins of SARS-CoV-2 are likely to remain effective. Research on molnupiravir has shown effectiveness against different variants, highlighting its potential in combating current and future variants.

Summary: The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has been characterized by the emergence of mutations and variants that impact virus characteristics. Manufacturers are preparing for possible updates to vaccines in response to changes in the virus population, and it is crucial to monitor genetic and antigenic changes alongside experiments to understand the impacts of mutations.

Immune Evasion of SARS-CoV-2 Emerging Variants: What Have We Learnt So Far?

Ivana Lazarevic et al.

Summary: Although SARS-CoV-2 evolves slowly compared to other RNA viruses, its rapid transmission during the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the emergence of numerous variants, some of which have been labeled as variants of concern. These variants may have an impact on transmission, morbidity/mortality, and evasion of neutralization by antibodies, especially monoclonal antibodies.

Summary: This protocol outlines an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in Syrian hamster serum samples. It includes the preparation of inactivated virus antigens, negative control antigens, and the use of antigen-coated microtiter plates.
