Live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIV) induce CD8(+) T lymphocyte responses that play an important role in killing virus-infected cells. Despite the relative conservation of internal influenza A proteins, the epitopes recognized by T cells can undergo drift under immune pressure. The internal proteins of Russian LAIVs are derived from the master donor virus A/Leningrad/134/17/57 (Len/17) isolated 60 years ago and as such, some CD8(+) T cell epitopes may vary between the vaccine and circulating wild-type strains. To partially overcome this issue, the nucleoprotein (NP) gene of wild-type virus can be incorporated into LAIV reassortant virus, along with the HA and NA genes. The present study compares the human CD8(+) T cell memory responses to H3N2 LAIVs with the Len/17 or the wild-type NP using an in vitro model.
