The Doctrine of Original Antigenic Sin: Separating Good From Evil. [PDF]

open access: hybridJ Infect Dis, 2017
The term "original antigenic sin" was coined approximately 60 years ago to describe the imprinting by the initial first influenza A virus infection on the antibody response to subsequent vaccination. These studies did not suggest a reduction in the response to current antigens but instead suggested anamnestic recall of antibody to earlier influenza ...

Strategies to alleviate original antigenic sin responses to influenza viruses. [PDF]

open access: bronzeProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2012
Original antigenic sin is a phenomenon wherein sequential exposure to closely related influenza virus variants reduces antibody (Ab) response to novel antigenic determinants in the second strain and, consequently, impairs the development of immune memory.

Original antigenic sin responses to influenza viruses. [PDF]

open access: bronzeJ Immunol, 2009
Abstract Most immune responses follow Burnet’s rule in that Ag recruits specific lymphocytes from a large repertoire and induces them to proliferate and differentiate into effector cells. However, the phenomenon of “original antigenic sin” stands out as a paradox to Burnet’s rule of B cell engagement.

From Original Antigenic Sin to the Universal Influenza Virus Vaccine [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Immunology, 2018
Antibody responses are essential for protection against influenza virus infection. Humans are exposed to a multitude of influenza viruses throughout their lifetime and it is clear that immune history influences the magnitude and quality of the antibody response.

Analysis of Anti-Influenza Virus Neuraminidase Antibodies in Children, Adults, and the Elderly by ELISA and Enzyme Inhibition: Evidence for Original Antigenic Sin [PDF]

open access: goldmBio, 2017
Antibody responses to influenza virus hemagglutinin provide protection against infection and are well studied. Less is known about the human antibody responses to the second surface glycoprotein, neuraminidase. Here, we assessed human antibody reactivity

Original Antigenic Sin Response to RNA Viruses and Antiviral Immunity. [PDF]

open access: hybridImmune Netw, 2016
The human immune system has evolved to fight against foreign pathogens. It plays a central role in the body's defense mechanism. However, the immune memory geared to fight off a previously recognized pathogen, tends to remember an original form of the pathogen when a variant form subsequently invades. This has been termed 'original antigenic sin'. This

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 ...
