Reconsideration of Antinucleocapsid IgG Antibody as a Marker of SARS-CoV-2 Infection Postvaccination for Mild COVID-19 Patients

Santosh Dhakal et al.

Summary: Patients who were vaccinated had lower levels of anti-N antibodies in their plasma and oral fluid after being infected with SARS-CoV-2 compared to those who were infected before vaccination or without vaccination. This raises concerns about using anti-N antibodies as a long-term marker for natural infection surveillance.

The Fc-effector function of COVID-19 convalescent plasma contributes to SARS-CoV-2 treatment efficacy in mice

Irfan Ullah et al.

Summary: COVID-19 convalescent plasmas (CCPs) for plasma therapy are selected based on neutralizing titers and anti-Spike immunoglobulin levels. CCPs with moderate to high Fc-effector activity, despite low neutralizing ability, delay mortality and/or improve survival in SARS-CoV-2-challenged mice. The Fc-effector functions of CCPs contribute to immunity against variant strains.

Few SARS-CoV-2 infections detected in Newfoundland and Labrador in the absence of Public Health Laboratory-based confirmation

Danielle P. Ings et al.

Summary: This study assessed the incidence of COVID-19 infection in individuals suspecting they contracted the virus without confirmatory testing. The majority of these individuals did not have detectable antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Suspected infection was often based on experiencing common respiratory infection symptoms, as well as severe or persistent symptoms, and travel or contact with confirmed cases. Serological testing proved useful in accurately diagnosing past infection with SARS-CoV-2.

SARS-CoV-2 spreads through cell-to-cell transmission

Cong Zeng et al.

Summary: This study provides evidence that SARS-CoV-2 spreads through cell-cell contact and the spike glycoprotein plays a crucial role in this transmission. Cell-to-cell transmission is more efficient with SARS-CoV-2 spike compared to SARS-CoV spike, and endosomal membrane fusion is identified as an underlying mechanism. The genuine variants of concern (VOCs) B.1.1.7 (alpha) and B.1.351 (beta) have similar cell-to-cell transmission capability, with some differences in resistance to neutralization and inhibition by vaccinee sera.

Vaccination before or after SARS-CoV-2 infection leads to robust humoral response and antibodies that effectively neutralize variants

Summary: This study found that individuals who previously recovered from COVID-19 and received vaccination (hybrid immunity) have enhanced immune responses. The effects of post-vaccination breakthrough infections on humoral immune response needs further investigation. However, regardless of whether it occurs before or after vaccination, natural infection substantially boosts the quantity, quality, and breadth of humoral immune response.

The study found that natural immunity provided protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 hospitalization for up to 20 months. Vaccination further reduced the risk of reinfection and hospitalization for up to 9 months, although the differences in absolute numbers, especially in hospitalizations, were small.

Cross-reactive antibodies elicited to conserved epitopes on SARS-CoV-2 spike protein after infection and vaccination

Eric S. Geanes et al.

Summary: This study found that individuals who had previous SARS-CoV-2 infection or were vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 vaccine produced antibody responses that cross-reacted with related betacoronaviruses. A peptide-conjugate vaccine was also designed to induce cross-reactive antibody binding to SARS-CoV-2 and other related coronaviruses. These findings suggest that conserved epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 can elicit cross-reactive immune responses to both related coronaviruses and host bacteria.

SARS-CoV-2 host-shutoff impacts innate NK cell functions, but antibody-dependent NK activity is strongly activated through non-spike antibodies

Ceri Alan Fielding et al.

Summary: The outcome of infection depends on the ability of viruses to manipulate the infected cells and the immune response. Understanding this process is crucial for understanding disease progression and immunity. SARS-CoV-2 can antagonize innate immunity and decrease NK cell activation through modulation of protein synthesis. Antibody-dependent NK cell activation plays a significant role in disease, and vaccine-induced ADNKA is different from natural infection-induced ADNKA.

Correlates of protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease

Summary: Antibodies against S1 epitopes provide the most accurate prediction of infection by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Binding antibody titers have the highest statistical correlation. Besides neutralization, antibodies also have multiple protective functions. Cellular responses, including CD4(+) T cells and CD8(+) cells, play a significant role in antibody augmentation and viral replication control, especially in the presence of insufficient antibodies. More research is needed on mucosal responses.

Moderate to severe SARS-CoV-2 infection primes vaccine-induced immunity more effectively than asymptomatic or mild infection

Kayla A. Holder et al.

Summary: Hybrid immunity induced by vaccination following recovery from SARS-CoV-2 infection is more robust than immunity induced by either infection or vaccination alone. Infection severity influences the strength and character of subsequent vaccine-induced immune responses. One vaccine dose triggers stronger immune responses than in a comparable group never infected with SARS-CoV-2, while the second dose produces only minor lasting increases in immunity.

Summary: Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has emerged as the most mutated and concerning variant. It has shown high transmissibility and immune evasion abilities, rapidly replacing the Delta variant in several regions. However, recent studies suggest that Omicron has reduced pathogenicity and significant resistance to vaccines and antibody therapies. This review summarizes the molecular and clinical characteristics of Omicron, discusses potential therapeutic approaches, and highlights strategies for ending the pandemic.

Cross-reactive serum and memory B-cell responses to spike protein in SARS-CoV-2 and endemic coronavirus infection

Summary: This study examines the impact of pre-existing immunity to seasonal endemic coronaviruses on antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2, finding weak evidence of pre-existing cross-reactive serum antibodies in pre-pandemic donors, but evidence of pre-existing cross-reactive memory B cells activated during SARS-CoV-2 infection. Monoclonal antibodies show varying degrees of cross-reactivity with betacoronaviruses, and one neutralizing antibody specific to the S2 subunit of the S protein is identified, suggesting that pre-existing immunity to endemic coronaviruses should be considered in evaluating antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2.
