Impact of antigenic evolution and original antigenic sin on SARS-CoV-2 immunity. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Invest, 2023
Infections with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and vaccinations targeting the spike protein (S) offer protective immunity against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Is 'original antigenic sin' complicating indian vaccination drive against Covid-19? [PDF]

open access: yesHum Vaccin Immunother, 2021
India is in the grip of a devastating second wave of Covid-19. Many experts believe new variants of concern (VOC) are behind this unprecedented surge.

Original Antigenic Sin and Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccines. [PDF]

open access: yesVaccines (Basel), 2019
The original antigenic sin (OAS) theory considers the outcome of the first encounter with an antigen. It favors a memory response to the original antigen upon exposure to a similar or related antigen, and includes both positive and negative impacts of ...

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in the context of original antigenic sin. [PDF]

open access: yesHum Vaccin Immunother, 2022
Immunological memory is the ability of the adaptive immune system to ensure a persistent protective effect after immunization. However, it can also be a limitation to building a sufficient level of protective antibodies specific to new mutations of the ...

Original antigenic sin and pandemic (H1N1) 2009. [PDF]

open access: yesEmerg Infect Dis, 2010
To the Editor: While pandemic (H1N1) 2009 was in its earliest stages, age distribution data indicated surprisingly few cases among persons >65 years of age. The initial assumption was that few persons >65 years of age had yet to be exposed. However, as more data became available from Mexico, Australia, and the United States, the age distribution ...

Thyroid Autoantibodies Display both "Original Antigenic Sin" and Epitope Spreading. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Immunol, 2017
Evidence for original antigenic sin in spontaneous thyroid autoimmunity is revealed by autoantibody interactions with immunodominant regions on thyroid autoantigens, thyroglobulin (Tg), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), and the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) A ...

Understanding original antigenic sin in influenza with a dynamical system. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2011
Original antigenic sin is the phenomenon in which prior exposure to an antigen leads to a subsequent suboptimal immune response to a related antigen. Immune memory normally allows for an improved and rapid response to antigens previously seen and is the ...

Original Antigenic Sin: How Original? How Sinful? [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harb Perspect Med, 2021
We review the phenomenon of "original antigenic sin" (OAS) in antibody responses to influenza A virus (IAV) infection or vaccination. OAS refers to the preferential induction of antibodies with higher affinity to priming versus boosting immunogens. We emphasize its mechanistic basis and origins in the basic immunobiology of B-cell responses to myriad ...

Original antigenic sin: not so sinful after all. [PDF]

open access: yesTrends Immunol, 2023
'Original antigenic sin' predicts that antibody responses to secondary infections with escape mutants are dominated by specificities to the original pathogen. Using transgenic mice in which antibodies are tagged based on cellular origins and kinetics, Schiepers et al.
