    Plasmablast Expansion Following the Tetravalent, Live-Attenuated Dengue Vaccine Butantan-DV in DENV-Naive and DENV-Exposed Individuals in a Brazilian Cohort
    (2022) SILVEIRA, Cassia G. T.; MAGNANI, Diogo M.; COSTA, Priscilla R.; AVELINO-SILVA, Vivian I.; RICCIARDI, Michael J.; TIMENETSKY, Maria do Carmo S. T.; GOULART, Raphaella; CORREIA, Carolina A.; MARMORATO, Mariana P.; FERRARI, Lilian; NAKAGAWA, Zelinda B.; TOMIYAMA, Claudia; TOMIYAMA, Helena; KALIL, Jorge; PALACIOS, Ricardo; PRECIOSO, Alexander R.; WATKINS, David I.; KALLAS, Esper G.
    An effective vaccine against the dengue virus (DENV) should induce a balanced, long-lasting antibody (Ab) response against all four viral serotypes. The burst of plasmablasts in the peripheral blood after vaccination may reflect enriched vaccine-specific Ab secreting cells. Here we characterize the acute plasmablast responses from naive and DENV-exposed individuals following immunization with the live attenuated tetravalent (LAT) Butantan DENV vaccine (Butantan-DV). The frequency of circulating plasmablasts was determined by flow cytometric analysis of fresh whole blood specimens collected from 40 participants enrolled in the Phase II Butantan-DV clinical trial (NCT01696422) before and after (days 6, 12, 15 and 22) vaccination. We observed a peak in the number of circulating plasmablast at day 15 after vaccination in both the DENV naive and the DENV-exposed vaccinees. DENV-exposed vaccinees experienced a significantly higher plasmablast expansion. In the DENV-naive vaccinees, plasmablasts persisted for approximately three weeks longer than among DENV-exposed volunteers. Our findings indicate that the Butantan-DV can induce plasmablast responses in both DENV-naive and DENV-exposed individuals and demonstrate the influence of pre-existing DENV immunity on Butantan DV-induced B-cell responses.

    Humoral and cellular immune responses to CoronaVac up to one year after vaccination
    (2022) COSTA, Priscilla Ramos; CORREIA, Carolina Argondizo; MARMORATO, Mariana Prado; DIAS, Juliana Zanatta de Carvalho; THOMAZELLA, Mateus Vailant; SILVA, Amanda Cabral da; OLIVEIRA, Ana Carolina Soares de; GUSMAO, Arianne Fagotti; FERRARI, Lilian; FREITAS, Angela Carvalho; PATINO, Elizabeth Gonzalez; GRIFONI, Alba; WEISKOPF, Daniela; SETTE, Alessandro; SCHARF, Rami; KALLAS, Esper Georges; SILVEIRA, Cassia Gisele Terrassani
    Coronavac is a widely used SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine, but its long-term immune response assessment is still lacking. We evaluated SARS-CoV-2-specific immune responses, including T cell activation markers, antigen-specific cytokine production and antibody response following vaccination in 53 adult and elderly individuals participating in a phase 3 clinical trial. Activated follicular helper T (Tfh), non-Tfh and memory CD4(+) T cells were detected in almost all subjects early after the first vaccine dose. Activated memory CD4(+) T cells were predominantly of central and effector memory T cell phenotypes and were sustained for at least 6 months. We also detected a balanced Th1-, Th2- and Th17/Th22-type cytokine production that was associated with response over time, together with particular cytokine profile linked to poor responses in older vaccinees. SARS-CoV-2-specific IgG levels peaked 14 days after the second dose and were mostly stable over one year. CoronaVac was able to induce a potent and durable antiviral antigen-specific cellular response and the cytokine profiles related to the response over time and impacted by the senescence were defined.
