Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is responsible for serious lower respiratory tract disease in infants and in older adults, and remains an important vaccine need. RSV fusion (F) glycoprotein is a key target for neutralizing antibodies. RSV F stabilized in its pre-fusion conformation (DS-Cav1 F) induces high neutralizing antibody titers in naïve animals, but it remains unknown to what extent pre-fusion F can boost pre-existing neutralizing responses in RSV seropositive adults. We here assess DS-Cav1 F immunogenicity in seropositive cattle pre-exposed to bovine RSV, a virus closely related to hRSV. A single immunization with non-adjuvanted DS-Cav1 F strongly boosts RSV neutralizing responses, directed towards pre-fusion F-specific epitopes, whereas a post-fusion F is unable to do so. Vaccination with pre-fusion F thus represents a promising strategy for maternal immunization and for other RSV vaccine target populations such as older adults.

融合前 RSV F 强烈增强预先暴露于牛 RSV 的牛的融合前特异性中和反应。



人类呼吸道合胞病毒 (hRSV) 会导致婴儿和老年人的严重下呼吸道疾病,并且仍然是一种重要的疫苗需求。 RSV 融合 (F) 糖蛋白是中和抗体的关键靶点。稳定在其融合前构象的 RSV F (DS-Cav1 F) 可在幼稚动物中诱导高中和抗体滴度,但目前尚不清楚融合前 F 能在多大程度上增强 RSV 血清阳性成人中预先存在的中和反应。我们在此评估了预先暴露于牛 RSV(一种与 hRSV 密切相关的病毒)的血清阳性牛的 DS-Cav1 F 免疫原性。使用非佐剂 DS-Cav1 F 进行单次免疫可强烈增强针对融合前 F 特异性表位的 RSV 中和反应,而融合后 F 则无法做到这一点。因此,融合前 F 疫苗接种代表了孕产妇免疫和其他 RSV 疫苗目标人群(例如老年人)的一种有前途的策略。
