Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients show lower humoral vaccine responsiveness than immunocompetent individuals. HLA diversity, measured by the HLA evolutionary divergence (HED) metrics, reflects the diversity of the antigenic repertoire presented to T cells, and has been shown to predict response to cancer immunotherapy. We retrospectively investigated the association of HED with humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in allo-HSCT recipients. HED was calculated as pairwise genetic distance between alleles at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQB1, and -DPB1 loci in recipients and their donors. Low anti-spike IgG levels (<30 BAU/mL) were associated with short time from allo-SCT and low donor DPB1-HED, mostly related to donor DPB1 homozygosity. The diversity of donor HLA-DP molecules, assessed by heterozygosity or sequence divergence, may thus impact the efficacy of donor-derived CD4 T cells to sustain vaccine-mediated antibody response in allo-HSCT recipients.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) cause a progressive loss of neurons. Since NDDs are multifactorial, the precise etiology varies on the basis of the type of disease and patient history. Cohort studies and case studies have demonstrated a potential link between viral infections and the onset or progression of NDDs.

We apply a primary healthcare (PHC) perspective to gauge Pakistan's health systems response to COVID-19, to identify stewardship lessons for integrating the PHC pandemic response. Analysis of Pakistan's response against the Astana PHC framework shows that the imperative for national survival helped mobilise an agile response across a fragmented health security context. The findings show effective multisector governance in responding to the health and social aspects of the pandemic, as well as the rapid roll-out of several public health functions and emergency care.

Background: We have recently shown that, during acute severe COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (S) induces a cascade of events resulting in T cell apoptosis. Indeed, by neutralizing the protease activity of its receptor, ACE2, S induces an increase in circulating Angiotensin II (AngII), resulting in monocytic release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and programmed T cell death.
Objective: Here, we tested whether SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines, known to cause the circulation of the vaccine antigen, S-protein receptor binding domain (RBD), might trigger the same cascade.

Viral infections trigger inflammasome-mediated caspase-1 activation. Nevertheless, limited understanding exists regarding how viruses use the active caspase-1 to evade host immune response. Here, we use porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) as a model of coronaviruses (CoVs) to illustrate the intricate regulation of CoVs to combat IFN-I signaling and pyroptosis.
