Roles of Fc receptor gamma chain in inducing protective immune responses after F virus-like particles prime and FI-RSV boost against respiratory syncytial virus infection
JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY(2021)
摘要
Abstract The roles of Fc receptor (FcR) in protection or in inflammatory disease after RSV vaccination and infection remain unknown. Virus-like particles containing RSV fusion proteins (RSV F-VLPs) induce T-helper type 1 antibody responses and protection against RSV. Heterologous RSV F VLP prime and inactivated RSV (FI-RSV) boost vaccination was reported to be effective in providing protection without inflammatory disease. Here we investigated whether the FcRγ chain is important for immune protection by heterologous F VLP and FI-RSV vaccination using FcRγ chain knockout (−/−) mouse model. RSV F-VLP prime and FI-RSV boosted FcRγ−/− mice were not well protected, as shown by higher lung viral titers upon RSV virus challenge compared to RSV F-VLP prime-immunized wild-type mice. RSV F-VLP and FI-RSV immunization of FcRγ−/− mice induced significantly lower levels of neutralizing activity and interferon γ-producing CD8 T cells in bronchoalveolar lavage cells than those in in wild-type mice. In addition, FcRγ−/− mice displayed a trend of enhancing lung histopathology after RSV vaccination and infection. This study suggests that the FcR γ chain plays an important role in antiviral protection and CD8 T cell responses in RSV F-VLP and FI-RSV vaccination after RSV infections.
