Abstract
Background Mechanosensation is an important trigger of physiological processes in the gastrointestinal tract. Aberrant responses to mechanical input are associated with digestive disorders, including visceral hypersensitivity. Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is a mechanosensory ion channel with proposed roles in visceral afferent signaling, intestinal inflammation, and gut motility. While TRPV4 is a potential therapeutic target for digestive disease, current mechanistic understanding of how TRPV4 may influence gut function is limited by inconsistent reports of TRPV4 expression and distribution. Methods In this study we profiled functional expression of TRPV4 using Ca2+ imaging of wholemount preparations of the mouse, monkey, and human intestine in combination with immunofluorescent labeling for established cellular markers. The involvement of TRPV4 in colonic motility was assessed in vitro using videomapping and contraction assays. Results The TRPV4 agonist GSK1016790A evoked Ca2+ signaling in muscularis macrophages, enteric glia, and endothelial cells. TRPV4 specificity was confirmed using TRPV4 KO mouse tissue or antagonist pre-treatment. Calcium responses were not detected in other cell types required for neuromuscular signaling including enteric neurons, interstitial cells of Cajal, PDGFRα+ cells, and intestinal smooth muscle. TRPV4 activation led to rapid Ca2+ responses by a subpopulation of glial cells, followed by sustained Ca2+ signaling throughout the enteric glial network. Propagation of these waves was suppressed by inhibition of gap junctions or Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. Coordinated glial signaling in response to GSK1016790A was also disrupted in acute TNBS colitis. The involvement of TRPV4 in the initiation and propagation of colonic motility patterns was examined in vitro. Conclusions We reveal a previously unappreciated role for TRPV4 in the initiation of distension-evoked colonic motility. These observations provide new insights into the functional role of TRPV4 activation in the gut, with important implications for how TRPV4 may influence critical processes including inflammatory signaling and motility.

Abstract
Recently, we have shown that fate of a vaccine is determined by the cytokine milieu in the innate immune compartment at the early stage of vaccination. Specifically, 24 h post-delivery, level of innate lymphoid cell type 2 (ILC2)-derived IL-13/IL-13Rα2 are the master regulators of DC and also different ILC subsets responsible for modulating the downstream immune outcomes. Here, we provide step-by-step details how to assess different ILC and DC subsets in lung and muscle following intranasal and intramuscular viral vector vaccination, respectively, using multi-color flow cytometry and confocal microscopy.

Sublingual Immunization with Chimeric C1q/CD40 Ligand/HIV Virus-like Particles Induces Strong Mucosal Immune Responses against HIV. Vaccines (Basel) 2021; 9:vaccines9111236.

Abstract
Development of a vaccine that can elicit robust HIV specific antibody responses in the mucosal compartments is desired for effective prevention of HIV via sexual transmission. However, the current mucosal vaccines have either poor immunogenicity when administered orally or invite safety concerns when administered intranasally. Sublingual immunization has received more attention in recent years based on its efficiency in inducing systemic and mucosal immune responses in both mucosal and extra-mucosal tissues. To facilitate the transport of the immunogen across the sub-mucosal epithelial barrier, we found that CD91, the receptor of C1q, is prevalently expressed in the sublingual mucosal lining, and thus, a modified chimeric C1q surface conjugated CD40L/HIV VLP was generated. The ability of this chimeric C1q/CD40L/HIV VLP to bind, cross the epithelial layer, access and activate the sub-mucosal layer dendritic cells (DCs), and ultimately induce enhanced mucosal and systemic immune responses against HIV is evaluated in this study. We found that C1q/CD40L/HIV VLPs have enhanced binding, increased transport across the epithelial layer, and upregulate DC activation markers as compared to CD40L/HIV VLPs alone. Mice immunized with C1q/CD40L/HIV VLPs by sublingual administration showed higher levels of IgA salivary antibodies against both HIV Gag and Env than mice immunized with CD40L/HIV VLPs. Moreover, sublingual immunization with C1q/CD40L/HIV VLPs induced more Env- and Gag-specific IFN-γ producing T cells than the CD40L/HIV VLPs group. Interestingly, C1q/CD40L/HIV VLP immunization can also induce more mucosal homing T cells than that in CD40L/HIV VLP group. Our data suggest that incorporation of C1q to CD40L/HIV VLPs is a promising novel strategy and that the sublingual immunization can be a favorite immunization route for HIV mucosal vaccines.

Abstract
IL-4 production is associated with low-avidity, poorly cytotoxic T cell induction that contributes to viral immune evasion and the failure of T cell-based vaccines. Yet, the precise mechanisms that regulate IL-4 signalling in T cells remain elusive. Mounting evidence indicates that cells can dynamically alter their IL-4/IL-13 receptor signature to modulate downstream immune outcomes upon pathogen encounter. Here, we describe how naïve (CD62L+CD44lo-mid) CD4 and CD8 T cells distinctly engage both STAT6 and STAT3 in response to IL-4. We further show that IL-4R⍺ expression is both time- and IL-4 concentration-dependent. Remarkably, our findings reveal that STAT3 inhibition can ablate IL-4R⍺ and affect transcriptional expression of other Stat and Jak family members. By extension, the loss of STAT3 lead to aberrant STAT6 phosphorylation, revealing an inter-regulatory relationship between the two transcription factors. Moreover, IL-4 stimulation down-regulated TGF-β1 and IFN-γR1 expression on naïve T cells, possibly signifying the broad regulatory implications of IL-4 in conditioning lineage commitment decisions during early infection. Surprisingly, naïve T cells were unresponsive to IL-13 stimulation, unlike dendritic cells. Collectively, these findings could be exploited to inform more efficacious vaccines, as well as design treatments against IL-4/IL-13-associated disease conditions.

Abstract
We have shown that manipulation of IL-13 and STAT6 signaling at the vaccination site can lead to different innate lymphoid cell (ILC)/dendritic cell (DC) recruitment, resulting in high avidity/poly-functional T cells and effective antibody differentiation. Here we show that permanent versus transient blockage of IL-13 and STAT6 at the vaccination site can lead to unique ILC-derived IL-13 and IFN-γ profiles, and differential IL-13Rα2, type I and II IL-4 receptor regulation on ILC. Specifically, STAT6-/- BALB/c mice given fowl pox virus (FPV) expressing HIV antigens induced elevated ST2/IL-33R+ ILC2-derived IL-13 and reduced NKp46+/- ILC1/ILC3-derived IFN-γ expression, whilst the opposite (reduced IL-13 and elevated IFN-γ expression) was observed during transient inhibition of STAT6 signaling in wild type BALB/c mice given FPV-HIV-IL-4R antagonist vaccination. Interestingly, disruption/inhibition of STAT6 signaling considerably impacted IL-13Rα2 expression by ST2/IL-33R+ ILC2 and NKp46- ILC1/ILC3, unlike direct IL-13 inhibition. Consistently with our previous findings, this further indicated that inhibition of STAT6 most likely promoted IL-13 regulation via IL-13Rα2. Moreover, the elevated ST2/IL-33R+ IL-13Rα2+ lung ILC2, 24 h post FPV-HIV-IL-4R antagonist vaccination was also suggestive of an autocrine regulation of ILC2-derived IL-13 and IL-13Rα2, under certain conditions. Knowing that IL-13 can modulate IFN-γ expression, the elevated expression of IFN-γR on lung ST2/IL-33R+ ILC2 provoked the notion that there could also be inter-regulation of lung ILC2-derived IL-13 and NKp46- ILC1/ILC3-derived IFN-γ via their respective receptors (IFN-γR and IL-13Rα2) at the lung mucosae early stages of vaccination. Intriguingly, under different IL-13 conditions differential regulation of IL-13/IL-13Rα2 on lung DC was also observed. Collectively these findings further substantiated that IL-13 is the master regulator of, not only DC, but also different ILC subsets at early stages of viral vector vaccination, and responsible for shaping the downstream adaptive immune outcomes. Thus, thoughtful selection of vaccine strategies/adjuvants that can manipulate IL-13Rα2, and STAT6 signaling at the ILC/DC level may prove useful in designing more efficacious vaccines against different/chronic pathogens.

Safety and immunogenicity of an MF59-adjuvanted spike glycoprotein-clamp vaccine for SARS-CoV-2: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1 trial. THE LANCET. INFECTIOUS DISEASES 2021; 21:1383-1394. [PMID: 33887208 PMCID: PMC8055208 DOI: 10.1016/s1473-3099(21)00200-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 65] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Background Given the scale of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the development of vaccines based on different platforms is essential, particularly in light of emerging viral variants, the absence of information on vaccine-induced immune durability, and potential paediatric use. We aimed to assess the safety and immunogenicity of an MF59-adjuvanted subunit vaccine for COVID-19 based on recombinant SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein stabilised in a pre-fusion conformation by a novel molecular clamp (spike glycoprotein-clamp [sclamp]). Methods We did a phase 1, double-blind, placebo-controlled, block-randomised trial of the sclamp subunit vaccine in a single clinical trial site in Brisbane, QLD, Australia. Healthy adults (aged ≥18 to ≤55 years) who had tested negative for SARS-CoV-2, reported no close contact with anyone with active or previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, and tested negative for pre-existing SARS-CoV-2 immunity were included. Participants were randomly assigned to one of five treatment groups and received two doses via intramuscular injection 28 days apart of either placebo, sclamp vaccine at 5 μg, 15 μg, or 45 μg, or one dose of sclamp vaccine at 45 μg followed by placebo. Participants and study personnel, except the dose administration personnel, were masked to treatment. The primary safety endpoints included solicited local and systemic adverse events in the 7 days after each dose and unsolicited adverse events up to 12 months after dosing. Here, data are reported up until day 57. Primary immunogenicity endpoints were antigen-specific IgG ELISA and SARS-CoV-2 microneutralisation assays assessed at 28 days after each dose. The study is ongoing and registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04495933. Findings Between June 23, 2020, and Aug 17, 2020, of 314 healthy volunteers screened, 120 were randomly assigned (n=24 per group), and 114 (95%) completed the study up to day 57 (mean age 32·5 years [SD 10·4], 65 [54%] male, 55 [46%] female). Severe solicited reactions were infrequent and occurred at similar rates in participants receiving placebo (two [8%] of 24) and the SARS-CoV-2 sclamp vaccine at any dose (three [3%] of 96). Both solicited reactions and unsolicited adverse events occurred at a similar frequency in participants receiving placebo and the SARS-CoV-2 sclamp vaccine. Solicited reactions occurred in 19 (79%) of 24 participants receiving placebo and 86 (90%) of 96 receiving the SARS-CoV-2 sclamp vaccine at any dose. Unsolicited adverse events occurred in seven (29%) of 24 participants receiving placebo and 35 (36%) of 96 participants receiving the SARS-CoV-2 sclamp vaccine at any dose. Vaccination with SARS-CoV-2 sclamp elicited a similar antigen-specific response irrespective of dose: 4 weeks after the initial dose (day 29) with 5 μg dose (geometric mean titre [GMT] 6400, 95% CI 3683–11 122), with 15 μg dose (7492, 4959–11 319), and the two 45 μg dose cohorts (8770, 5526–13 920 in the two-dose 45 μg cohort; 8793, 5570–13 881 in the single-dose 45 μg cohort); 4 weeks after the second dose (day 57) with two 5 μg doses (102 400, 64 857–161 676), with two 15 μg doses (74 725, 51 300–108 847), with two 45 μg doses (79 586, 55 430–114 268), only a single 45 μg dose (4795, 2858–8043). At day 57, 67 (99%) of 68 participants who received two doses of sclamp vaccine at any concentration produced a neutralising immune response, compared with six (25%) of 24 who received a single 45 μg dose and none of 22 who received placebo. Participants receiving two doses of sclamp vaccine elicited similar neutralisation titres, irrespective of dose: two 5 μg doses (GMT 228, 95% CI 146–356), two 15 μg doses (230, 170–312), and two 45 μg doses (239, 187–307). Interpretation This first-in-human trial shows that a subunit vaccine comprising mammalian cell culture-derived, MF59-adjuvanted, molecular clamp-stabilised recombinant spike protein elicits strong immune responses with a promising safety profile. However, the glycoprotein 41 peptide present in the clamp created HIV diagnostic assay interference, a possible barrier to widespread use highlighting the criticality of potential non-spike directed immunogenicity during vaccine development. Studies are ongoing with alternative molecular clamp trimerisation domains to ameliorate this response.

Abstract
Subunit vaccines exhibit favorable safety and immunogenicity profiles and can be designed to mimic native antigen structures. However, pairing with an appropriate adjuvant is imperative in order to elicit effective humoral and cellular immune responses. In this study, we aimed to determine an optimal adjuvant pairing with the prefusion form of influenza haemagglutinin (HA) or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion (F) subunit vaccines in BALB/c mice in order to inform future subunit vaccine adjuvant selection. We tested a panel of adjuvants, including aluminum hydroxide (alhydrogel), QS21, Addavax, Addavax with QS21 (AdQS21), and Army Liposome Formulation 55 with monophosphoryl lipid A and QS21 (ALF55). We found that all adjuvants elicited robust humoral responses in comparison to placebo, with the induction of potent neutralizing antibodies observed in all adjuvanted groups against influenza and in AdQS21, alhydrogel, and ALF55 against RSV. Upon HA vaccination, we observed that none of the adjuvants were able to significantly increase the frequency of CD4+ and CD8+ IFN-γ+ cells when compared to unadjuvanted antigen. The varying responses to antigens with each adjuvant highlights that those adjuvants most suited for pairing purposes can vary depending on the antigen used and/or the desired immune response. We therefore suggest that an adjuvant trial for different subunit vaccines in development would likely be necessary in preclinical studies.
