Abstract
Monkeypox is a zoonotic virus that has recently affected different countries worldwide. On July 23, 2022, the WHO declared the outbreak of monkeypox as a public health emergency of international concern. Surveillance studies conducted in Central Africa in the 1980s and later during outbreaks in the same region showed smallpox vaccines to be clinically somewhat effective against Monkeypox virus. However, there is no specific vaccine against this virus. This research used bioinformatics techniques to establish a novel multi-epitope vaccine candidate against Monkeypox that can induce a strong immune response. Five well-known antigenic proteins (E8L, A30L, A35R, A29L, and B21R) of the virus were picked and assessed as possible immunogenic peptides. Two suitable peptide candidates were selected according to bio-informatics analysis. Based upon in silico evaluation, two multi-epitope vaccine candidates (ALALAR and ALAL) were built with rich-epitope domains consisting of high-ranking T and B-cell epitopes. After predicting and evaluating the 3D structure of the protein candidates, the most efficient 3D models were considered for docking studies with Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and the HLA-A * 11:01, HLA-A*01:01, HLA-A*02:01, HLA-A*03:01, HLA-A*07:02, HLA-A*15:01, HLA-A*30:01 receptors. Subsequently, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of up to 150 nanoseconds was employed to assess the durability of the interaction of the vaccine candidates with immune receptors. MD studies showed that M5-HLA-A*11:01, ALAL-TLR4, and ALALAR-TLR4 complexes were stable during simulation. Analysis of the in silico outcomes indicates that the M5 peptide and ALAL and ALALAR proteins may be suitable vaccine candidates against the Monkeypox virus.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
CC chemokine receptor 6 (CCR6) is one of the members of the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family that is upregulated in many immune-related cells, such as B lymphocytes, effector and memory T cells, regulatory T cells, and immature dendritic cells. The coordination between CCR6 and its ligand CC motif chemokine ligand 20 (CCL20) is deeply involved in the pathogenesis of various diseases, such as cancer, psoriasis, and autoimmune diseases. Thus, CCR6 is an attractive target for therapy and is being investigated as a diagnostic marker for various diseases. In a previous study, we developed an anti-mouse CCR6 (mCCR6) monoclonal antibody (mAb), C6Mab-13 (rat IgG1, kappa), that was applicable for flow cytometry by immunizing a rat with the N-terminal peptide of mCCR6. In this study, we investigated the binding epitope of C6Mab-13 using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method, which were conducted with respect to the synthesized point-mutated-peptides within the 1-20 amino acid region of mCCR6. In the ELISA results, C6Mab-13 lost its ability to react to the alanine-substituted peptide of mCCR6 at Asp11, thereby identifying Asp11 as the epitope of C6Mab-13. In our SPR analysis, the dissociation constants (KD) could not be calculated for the G9A and D11A mutants due to the lack of binding. The SPR analysis demonstrated that the C6Mab-13 epitope comprises Gly9 and Asp11. Taken together, the key binding epitope of C6Mab-13 was determined to be located around Asp11 on mCCR6. Based on the epitope information, C6Mab-13 could be useful for further functional analysis of mCCR6 in future studies.

Abstract
CD4+ T cell-mediated immunity against Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) can protect against recurrent bacterial colonization and invasive pneumococcal diseases (IPDs). Although such immune responses are common, the pertinent antigens have remained elusive. We identified an immunodominant CD4+ T cell epitope derived from pneumolysin (Ply), a member of the bacterial cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs). This epitope was broadly immunogenic as a consequence of presentation by the pervasive human leukocyte antigen (HLA) allotypes DPB1∗02 and DPB1∗04 and recognition via architecturally diverse T cell receptors (TCRs). Moreover, the immunogenicity of Ply427-444 was underpinned by core residues in the conserved undecapeptide region (ECTGLAWEWWR), enabling cross-recognition of heterologous bacterial pathogens expressing CDCs. Molecular studies further showed that HLA-DP4-Ply427-441 was engaged similarly by private and public TCRs. Collectively, these findings reveal the mechanistic determinants of near-global immune focusing on a trans-phyla bacterial epitope, which could inform ancillary strategies to combat various life-threatening infectious diseases, including IPDs.

Abstract
One of G protein-coupled receptors, CC chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3), is expressed in eosinophils, basophils, a subset of Th2 lymphocytes, mast cells, and airway epithelial cells. CCR3 levels in the serum of colorectal cancer patients are significantly higher than in control groups. Moreover, CCR3 is essential for recruiting eosinophils into the lung. Therefore, CCR3 is considered both a therapeutic target for colorectal cancer and allergic diseases. Previously, we established anti-mouse CCR3 (mCCR3) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), C3Mab-6 (rat IgG1, kappa) and C3Mab-7 (rat IgG1, kappa), by immunizing a rat with an N-terminal peptide of mCCR3. These mAbs can be used in flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. In this study, we performed the epitope mapping of C3Mab-6 and C3Mab-7 using alanine scanning. The reactivity between these mAbs and point mutants of mCCR3 were analyzed using flow cytometry. The results indicated that Phe3, Asn4, Thr5, Asp6, Glu7, Lys9, Thr10, and Glu13 of mCCR3 are essential for C3Mab-6 binding, whereas Phe15 and Glu16 are essential for C3Mab-7 binding.

Abstract
Porcine circovirus disease (PCVD) caused by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is widely distributed in pig farms. Up until now, nine genotypes of PCV2, PCV2a to 2i, have been identified in diseased pigs worldwide. This study analyzed 302 samples collected in the Jilin Province of China from 2016 to 2021, followed by genetic analysis of the PCV2 isolates. Meanwhile, the antigen epitopes, amino acid mutations, 3D structure of the PCV2 isolates and commercially available vaccine strains were evaluated and compared. The results showed that the predominant genotypes of PCV2 were PCV2b, followed by PCV2e and PCV2d in Jilin Province during 2016-2021. Although mutations were detected in the isolates, no recombination occurred in the PCV2 isolates, indicating a stable genotype of PCV2 in Jilin Province during these years. Moreover, the B cell epitopes in the Cap and Rep proteins of eighteen PCV2 isolates and T cell epitopes in the Cap of the isolates were changed compared to three currently used vaccine strains. The mutations in the Cap and Rep proteins did not affect their spatial conformation. Therefore, bivalent or multivalent vaccines with different genotypes of PCV2 might improve the protective effect of vaccines.

Abstract
We recently developed a novel anti-human C-C chemokine receptor 9 (hCCR9) monoclonal antibody (mAb), C9Mab-11, which is applicable to flow cytometry, western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). This study aims to identify the binding epitope of C9Mab-11 by using 1 × and 2 × alanine (or glycine) substituted-hCCR9 peptides (1 × and 2 × Ala-scan) by ELISA. According to the 1 × Ala-scan analysis, the response of C9Mab-11 was diminished against M13A of the hCCR9 peptide, but was not eliminated. In the 2 × Ala-scan analysis, the reactions were abolished in the substitution of P11A-N12A, N12A-M13A, and M13A-A14G of hCCR9 N-terminal peptides. The results indicate that the binding epitope of C9Mab-11 includes Pro11, Asn12, Met13, and Ala14 of hCCR9, with the region around Met13 being particularly important. The successful identification of the C9Mab-11 epitope might be useful for the future pathophysiological analysis of hCCR9.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus has been widely reported to be majorly responsible for causing nosocomial infections worldwide. Due to an increase in antibiotic-resistant strains, the development of an effective vaccine against the bacteria is the most viable alternative. Therefore, in the current work, an effort has been undertaken to develop a novel peptide-based vaccine construct against S aureus that can potentially evoke the B and T cell immune responses. The fibronectin-binding proteins are an attractive target as they play a prominent role in bacterial adherence and host cell invasion and are also well conserved among rapidly mutating pathogens. Therefore, highly immunogenic linear B lymphocytes (LBL), cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), and helper T lymphocytes (HTL) epitopes were identified from the antigenic fibronectin-binding proteins A and B (FnBPA and FnBPB) of S aureus using immunoinformatics approaches. The selected peptides were confirmed to be non-allergenic, non-toxic, and with a high binding affinity to the majority of human leukocyte antigens (HLA) alleles. Consequently, the multi-peptide vaccine construct was developed by fusing the screened epitopes (three LBL, five CTL, and two HTL) together with the suitable adjuvant and linkers. In addition, the tertiary conformation of the peptide construct was modeled and later docked to the Toll-like receptor 2. Subsequently, a molecular dynamics simulation of 100 ns was employed to corroborate the stability of the designed vaccine-receptor complex. Besides exhibiting high immunogenicity and conformational stability, the developed vaccine was observed to possess wide population coverage of 99.51% worldwide. Additional in vivo and in vitro validation studies would certainly corroborate the designed vaccine construct to have improved prophylactic efficacy against S aureus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parvalbumin (PV) can be subdivided into two phylogenetic lineages, αPV and βPV. The bony fish βPV is considered a major fish allergen. However, there is no available report on the immunological property and epitope mapping of bony fish αPV. RESULTS To characterize the allergenic property of bony fish αPV and investigate the difference in allergenic property of bony fish αPV and βPV, turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) αPV and βPV were identified by mass spectrometry and were expressed in Escherichia coli system in this study. Spectra analysis and three-dimensional (3D) modeling showed the similar structure between αPV and βPV. However, αPV exhibited lower immunoglobulin E/immunoglobulin G (IgE/IgG) binding capacity than βPV. Three identified βPV epitopes possessed higher IgE reactivity and more hydrophobic residues than three identified αPV epitopes. In addition, less similarity in sequence homology of αPV epitopes was observed with allergen sequences in database. CONCLUSION These finding expanded information on fish PV epitopes and substantiated the difference in allergenicity and epitope mapping between fish αPV and βPV, which will improve the epitope-based detection tools of PV and diagnostic of PV induced fish allergy. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an infectious viral pathogen that causing serious respiratory infection in adults and neonates. The only approved therapies for RSV are the monoclonal antibodies palivizumab and its derivative motavizumab. Both treatments are expensive and require a hospital setting for administration. A vaccine represents a safe, effective and cheaper alternative for preventing RSV infection. In silico prediction methods have proven to be valuable in speeding up the process of vaccine design. In this study, reverse vaccinology methods were used to predict the cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) epitopes from the entire proteome of RSV strain A. From amongst 3402 predicted binders to 12 high frequency alleles from the Immune Epitope Database (IEDB), 567 had positive processing scores while 327 epitopes were predicted to be immunogenic. A thorough examination of the 327 epitopes for possible antigenicity, allergenicity and toxicity resulted in 95 epitopes with desirable properties. A BLASTp analysis revealed 94 unique and non-homologous epitopes that were subjected to molecular docking across the 12 high frequency alleles. The final dataset of 70 epitopes contained 13 experimentally proven and 57 unique epitopes from a total of 11 RSV proteins. From our findings on selected T-cell-specific RSV antigen epitopes, notably the four epitopes confirmed to exhibit stable binding by molecular dynamics. The prediction pipeline used in this study represents an effective way to screen the immunogenic epitopes from other pathogens.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
T-cell immunity plays an important role in the control of SARS-CoV-2 and has a great cross-protective effect on the variants. The Omicron BA.1 variant contains more than 30 mutations in the spike and severely evades humoral immunity. To understand how Omicron BA.1 spike mutations affect cellular immunity, the T-cell epitopes of SARS-CoV-2 wild-type and Omicron BA.1 spike in BALB/c (H-2d) and C57BL/6 mice (H-2b) were mapped through IFNγ ELISpot and intracellular cytokine staining assays. The epitopes were identified and verified in splenocytes from mice vaccinated with the adenovirus type 5 vector encoding the homologous spike, and the positive peptides involved in spike mutations were tested against wide-type and Omicron BA.1 vaccines. A total of eleven T-cell epitopes of wild-type and Omicron BA.1 spike were identified in BALB/c mice, and nine were identified in C57BL/6 mice, only two of which were CD4+ T-cell epitopes and most of which were CD8+ T-cell epitopes. The A67V and Del 69-70 mutations in Omicron BA.1 spike abolished one epitope in wild-type spike, and the T478K, E484A, Q493R, G496S and H655Y mutations resulted in three new epitopes in Omicron BA.1 spike, while the Y505H mutation did not affect the epitope. These data describe the difference of T-cell epitopes in SARS-CoV-2 wild-type and Omicron BA.1 spike in H-2b and H-2d mice, providing a better understanding of the effects of Omicron BA.1 spike mutations on cellular immunity.

Abstract
Pasteurella multocida is the causative agent of a wide range of diseases (pasteurellosis) and a zoonotic pathogen in humans. Recombinant subunit vaccines are hot spots in recent pasteurellosis vaccine development. A chimeric vaccine is also constructed for rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) protective antigen VP60 chimeric with fragments of Pasteurella multocida protective antigen PlpE. The protective efficacy of the chimeric vaccine against P. multocida is not as high as that of PlpE, and the reason is not well known. In this study, we analyzed the linear B-cell epitopes of PlpE and then assessed the protective efficacy of these epitopes and their combinations. It was found that the immunodominant region of PlpE was mainly located in the region between the 21st to the 185th amino acids from the N terminus. Overlapping peptide scanning results demonstrated that this region contained six nonoverlapping epitopes, and epitope E was the predominant epitope. Chimeric protein antigens were constructed of single nonoverlapping PlpE epitopes or their combinations chimeric with the RHDV VP60 P domain. Immunization with recombinant antigen chimeric with a single PlpE epitope exhibited poor immunoprotection, whereas immunization with recombinant antigen chimeric with PlpE epitope combinations (epitopes A and E; epitopes C and E; epitopes A, C, and E; and epitopes B, D, and F) exhibited significant immunoprotection. In a word, P. multocida protective antigen PlpE contained six nonoverlapping linear B-cell epitopes, and combinations but not a single epitope induced host protective immunity. Our work will give help for future chimeric vaccine design.

Abstract
Background IL-23 is central to the pathogenesis of psoriasis, and is structurally comprised of p19 and p40 subunits. "Targeted" IL-23 inhibitors risankizumab, tildrakizumab, and guselkumab differ mechanistically from ustekinumab because they bind p19, whereas ustekinumab binds p40; however, a knowledge gap exists regarding the structural composition of their epitopes and how these molecular properties relate to their clinical efficacy. Objectives To characterize and differentiate the structural epitopes of the IL-23 inhibitors risankizumab, guselkumab, tildrakinumab, and ustekinumab, and correlate their molecular characteristics with clinical response in plaque psoriasis therapy. Methods We utilized epitope data derived from hydrogen-deuterium exchange studies for risankizumab, tildrakizumab, and guselkumab, and crystallographic data for ustekinumab to map drug epitope locations, hydrophobicity, and surface charge onto the IL-23 molecular surface (Protein Data Bank ID Code 3D87) using UCSF Chimera. PDBePISA was used to calculate solvent accessible surface area (SASA). Epitope composition was determined by classifying residues as acidic, basic, polar, or hydrophobic and calculating their contribution to epitope SASA. Linear regression and analysis of variance was performed. Results All the p19-specific inhibitor epitopes differ in location and size, with risankizumab and guselkumab having large epitope surface areas (SA), and tildrakizumab and ustekinumab having smaller SA. The tildrakizumab epitope was mostly hydrophobic (56%), while guselkumab, risankizumab, and ustekinumab epitopes displayed >50% non-hydrophobic residues. Risankizumab and ustekinumab exhibited acidic surface charges, while tildrakizumab and guselkumab were net neutral. Each inhibitor binds an epitope with a unique size and composition, and with mostly distinct locations except for a 10-residue overlap region that lies outside of the IL-23 receptor epitope. We observed a strong correlation between epitope SA and PASI-90 rates (R2 = 0.9969, p = 0.0016), as well as between epitope SA and KD (R2 = 0.9772, p = 0.0115). In contrast, we found that total epitope hydrophobicity, polarity, and charge content do not correlate with clinical efficacy. Conclusions Structural analysis of IL-23 inhibitor epitopes reveals strong association between epitope SA and early drug efficacy in plaque psoriasis therapy, exemplifying how molecular data can explain clinical observations, inform future innovation, and help clinicians in specific drug selection for patients.

Abstract
Cow's milk protein allergy is one of the most common pediatric food allergies. It poses a significant socioeconomic burden in industrialized countries and has a profound effect on the quality of life of affected individuals and their families. Diverse immunologic pathways can lead to the clinical symptoms of cow's milk protein allergy; some of the pathomechanisms are known in detail, but others need further elucidation. A comprehensive understanding of the development of food allergies and the features of oral tolerance could have the potential to unlock more precise diagnostic tools and novel therapeutic approaches for patients with cow's milk protein allergy.

Abstract
The M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is the major autoantigen of primary membranous nephropathy (MN). Despite many studies on B-cell epitopes recognized by antibodies, little is known about T-cell epitopes. Herein, we synthesized 123 linear peptides, each consisting of 15-22 amino acids with 8-12 amino acid overlaps, across ten domains of PLA2R. Their binding capacity to risk (DRB1∗1501, DRB1∗0301) and protective (DRB1∗0901, DRB1∗0701) HLA molecules was then assessed by flow cytometry. Proliferation of CD4+ T cells from patients with anti-PLA2R positive MN was analyzed after peptide stimulation. Cytokines produced by activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells were measured by cytometric bead arrays. We identified 17 PLA2R peptides that bound to both DRB1∗1501 and DRB1∗0301 molecules with high capacity. Some of these peptides showed decreased binding to heterozygous DRB1∗1501/0901 and DRB1∗0301/0701. Ten of the 17 peptides (CysR1, CysR10, CysR12, FnII-3, CTLD3-9, CTLD3-10, CTLD3-11, CTLD5-2-1, CTLD7-1 and CTLD7-2) induced significant proliferation of CD4+ T cells from patients with MN than cells from healthy individuals. Upon activation by these peptides, peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with MN produced higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, predominantly IL-6, TNF-α, IL-10, IL-9 and IL-17. Thus, we mapped and identified ten peptides in the CysR, FnII, CTLD3, CTLD5, and CTLD7 domains of PLA2R as potential T-cell epitopes of MN. These findings are a first step towards developing peptide-specific immunotherapies.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are chemical antibody mimics obtained by nanomoulding the 3D shape and chemical functionalities of a desired target in a synthetic polymer. Consequently, they possess exquisite molecular recognition cavities for binding the target molecule, often with specificity and affinity similar to those of antigen-antibody interactions. Research on MIPs targeting proteins began in the mid-90s, and this review will evaluate the progress made till now, starting from their synthesis in a monolith bulk format through surface imprinting to biocompatible soluble nanogels prepared by solid-phase synthesis. MIPs in the latter format will be discussed more in detail because of their tremendous potential of replacing antibodies in the biomedical domain like in diagnostics and therapeutics, where the workforce of antibodies is concentrated. Emphasis is also put on the development of epitope imprinting, which consists of imprinting a short surface-exposed fragment of a protein, resulting in MIPs capable of selectively recognizing the whole macromolecule, amidst others in complex biological media, on cells or tissues. Thus selecting the 'best' peptide antigen is crucial and in this context a rational approach, inspired from that used to predict peptide immunogens for peptide antibodies, is described for its unambiguous identification.

Abstract
Rabies virus is a zoonotic pathogen that causes lethal encephalitis with a case fatality rate of almost 100% in unvaccinated individuals. The currently available vaccines against rabies are composed of inactivated viral particles that only confer a short-term immune response. It is well-known that the entry of rabies virus into host cells is mediated by a trimeric glycoprotein presents on the surface of viral envelope. As the sole viral surface protein, this trimeric glycoprotein represents a promising molecular target to design new vaccines and neutralizing antibodies against rabies virus. Epitope mapping studies had identified several antigenic sites on the surface of trimeric pre-fusion glycoprotein of rabies virus. Therefore, it is of interest to screen the rabies virus glycoprotein by different web-based immuno-informatics tools to identify potential B-cells and T-cells linear epitopes. Here, we present a construct of peptide vaccine that consists of these predicted linear epitopes of rabies virus glycoprotein together with appropriate linkers and adjuvant. Various online prediction tools, molecular docking and dynamics simulation assume that the vaccine construct may be stable, safe and effective. However, validation of these in-silico results is necessary both in vitro and in vivo setting.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are really interesting for nanomedicine. To be suitable for such application, they need to be small, stable in aqueous media and sometimes fluorescent for bioimaging. We report herein, the facile synthesis of fluorescent, small (below 200 nm), water-soluble and water-stable MIP capable of specific and selective recognition of their target epitope (small part of a protein). To synthesize these materials, we used dithiocarbamate-based photoiniferter polymerization in water. The use of a rhodamine-based monomer makes the resulting polymers fluorescent. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is used to determine the affinity as well as the selectivity of the MIP for its imprinted epitope, according to the significant differences observed when comparing the binding enthalpy of the original epitope with that of other peptides. The toxicity of the nanoparticles is also tested in two breast cancer cell lines to show the possible use of these particle for future in vivo applications. The materials demonstrated a high specificity and selectivity for the imprinted epitope, with a Kd value comparable with the affinity values of antibodies. The synthesized MIP are not toxic, which makes them suitable for nanomedicine.

Definition of a New HLA B*52-Restricted Rev CTL Epitope Targeted by an HIV-1-Infected Controller. Viruses 2023; 15:v15020567.

Abstract
The analysis of T-cell responses in HIV-1-infected controllers may contribute to a better understanding of the protective components of the immune system. Here, we analyzed the HIV-1-specific T-cell response in a 59-year-old HIV-1-infected controller, infected for at least seven years, who presented with low viral loads ranging from <20 copies/mL to 200 copies/mL and normal CD4 counts of >800 cells/µL. In γ-IFN-ELISpot assays using freshly isolated PBMCs, he displayed a very strong polyclonal T-cell response to eight epitopes in Gag, Nef and Rev; with the dominant responses directed against the HLA-B*57-epitope AISPRTLNAW and against a so-far-unknown epitope within Rev. Further analyses using peptide-stimulated T-cell lines in γ-IFN-ELISpot assays delineated the peptide RQRQIRSI (Rev-RI8) as a newly defined HLA-B*52-restricted epitope located within a functionally important region of Rev. Peptide-stimulation assays in 15 HLA-B*52-positive HIV-1-infected subjects, including the controller, demonstrated recognition of the Rev-RI8 epitope in 6/15 subjects. CD4 counts before the start of antiviral therapy were significantly higher in subjects with recognition of the Rev-RI8 epitope. Targeting of the Rev-RI8 epitope in Rev by CTL could contribute to the positive association of HLA-B*52 with a more favorable course of HIV-1-infection.

Abstract
African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes a highly lethal hemorrhagic viral disease (ASF) of pigs that results in serious losses in China and elsewhere. The development of a vaccine and diagnosis technology for ASFV is essential to prevent and control the spread of ASF. The p72 protein of ASFV is highly immunogenic and reactive, and is a dominant antigen in ASF vaccine and diagnostic research. In this study, 17 p72 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were generated. Epitope mapping by a series of overlapping peptides expressed in Escherichia coli showed that these mAbs recognized a total of seven (1-7) linear B cell epitopes. These mAbs did not show significant neutralizing activity. Epitopes 1 (249HKPHQSKPIL258), 2 (69PVGFEYENKV77), 5 (195VNGNSLDEYSS205), and 7 (223GYKHLVGQEV233) are novel. Sequence alignment analysis revealed that the identified epitopes were highly conserved among 27 ASFV strains from nine genotypes. Preliminary screening using known positive and negative sera indicated the diagnostic potential of mAb-2B8D7. The results provide new insights into the antigenic regions of ASFV p72 and will inform the diagnosis of ASFV.

Abstract
Clostridioides difficile (CD) is a Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium that infects mainly hospitalized and elderly people who have been treated with long-term antibiotic therapy leading to dysbiosis. The deteriorating demographic structure and the increase in the number of antibiotics used indicate that the problem of CD infections (CDI) will continue to increase. Thus far, there is no vaccine against CD on the market. Unfortunately, clinical trials conducted using the CD toxin-based antigens did not show sufficiently high efficacy, because they did not prevent colonization and transmission between patients. It seems that the vaccine should also include antigens found in the bacterium itself or its spores in order not only to fight the effects of toxins but also to prevent the colonization of the patient. This literature review summarizes the latest advances in research into vaccine antigens that do not contain CD toxins.

Abstract
An anti-mouse CXC chemokine receptor 6 (mCXCR6) monoclonal antibody (mAb), Cx6Mab-1, was developed recently. Cx6Mab-1 is applicable for flow cytometry, Western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The purpose of this study is to determine the binding epitope of Cx6Mab-1 using 2 × alanine mutated mCXCR6. Analysis of flow cytometry revealed that Cx6Mab-1 did not recognize S8A-A9G, L10A-Y11A, D12A-G13A, and H14A-Y15A mutants of mCXCR6. The results clearly indicate that the binding epitope of Cx6Mab-1 includes Ser8, Ala9, Leu10, Tyr11, Asp12, Gly13, His14, and Tyr15 of mCXCR6. The successful determination of the Cx6Mab-1 epitope might contribute to the pathophysiological investigation of mCXCR6.

Abstract
The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) is driven by mutations that mediate escape from neutralizing antibodies. There is also evidence that mutations can cause loss of T cell epitopes. However, studies on viral escape from T cell immunity have been hampered by uncertain estimates of epitope prevalence. Here, we map and quantify CD8 T cell responses to SARS-CoV-2-specific minimal epitopes in blood drawn from April to June 2020 from 83 COVID-19 convalescents. Among 37 HLA ligands eluted from five prevalent alleles and an additional 86 predicted binders, we identify 29 epitopes with an immunoprevalence ranging from 3% to 100% among individuals expressing the relevant HLA allele. Mutations in VOC are reported in 10.3% of the epitopes, while 20.6% of the non-immunogenic peptides are mutated in VOC. The nine most prevalent epitopes are conserved in VOC. Thus, comprehensive mapping of epitope prevalence does not provide evidence that mutations in VOC are driven by escape of T cell immunity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to establish time-resolved fluorescence immunoassays to quantitatively detect the autoantibodies targeting different epitopes of M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) and evaluate its clinical application in primary membranous nephropathy (PMN). METHODS PLA2R and its reactive epitope-specific IgG/IgG4 time-resolved fluorescence immunoassays (TRFIAs) were established using europium-labeled anti-human IgG/IgG4 antibodies, recombinant proteins, and patient serum. The levels of IgG/IgG4 targeting PLA2R and its epitopes in PMN patient serum were detected, and the relationship between epitope spreading of PLA2R and the severity of patients with PMN was evaluated. RESULTS The TRFIAs established in this study could quantitatively detect PLA2R and its epitope-specific IgG and IgG4. Sera from 59 patients with PMN were subjected to detection using anti-PLA2R IgG and anti-PLA2R IgG4. Among them, 46 and 54 patients were found positive for PLA2R antibodies, respectively. Moreover, the levels of PLA2R antibodies were strongly correlated with the severity of patients with PMN. Patients who were detected to have two or more epitopes had more serious renal injury. CONCLUSIONS PLA2R domain-specific IgG/IgG4 TRFIAs were established in this study, and detection with anti-PLA2R IgG4 could more sensitively screen the reactivity of patients to the PLA2R domain. Moreover, detection epitope spreading of PLA2R was confirmed which is related to the severity of patients with PMN.

Abstract
Oncolytic viruses are currently tested as a novel platform for cancer therapy. These viruses preferentially replicate in and kill malignant cells. Due to their microbial origin, treatment with oncolytic viruses naturally results in anti-viral responses and general immune activation. Consequently, the oncolytic virus treatment also induces anti-viral T cells. Since these can constitute the dominant activated T cell pool, monitoring of the anti-viral T cell response may aid in better understanding of the immune responses post oncolytic virotherapy. This study aimed to identify the anti-viral T cells raised by VSV-GP virotherapy in C57BL/6J mice, one of the most widely used models for preclinical studies. VSV-GP is a novel oncolytic agent that recently entered a clinical phase I study. To identify the VSV-GP epitopes to which mouse anti-viral T cells react, we used a multilevel adapted bioinformatics viral epitope prediction approach based on the tools netMHCpan, MHCflurry and netMHCstabPan, which are commonly used in neoepitope identification. Predicted viral epitopes were ranked based on consensus binding strength categories, predicted stability, and dissimilarity to the mouse proteome. The top ranked epitopes were selected and included in the peptide candidate matrix in order to use a matrix deconvolution approach. Using ELISpot, we showed which viral epitopes presented on C57BL/6J mouse MHC-I alleles H2-Db and H2-Kb trigger IFN-γ secretion due to T cell activation. Furthermore, we validated these findings using an intracellular cytokine staining. Collectively, identification of the VSV-GP T cell epitopes enables monitoring of the full range of anti-viral T cell responses upon VSV-GP virotherapy in future studies with preclinical mouse models to more comprehensively delineate anti-viral from anti-tumor T cell responses. These findings also support the development of novel VSV-GP variants expressing immunomodulatory transgenes and can improve the assessment of anti-viral immunity in preclinical models.

Abstract
Canine distemper virus (CDV) infects many sensitive species worldwide and its host range is expanding. The hemagglutinin (H) protein, the major neutralizing target, binds to cellular receptors and subsequently triggers fusion for initial viral infection. So it's necessary to clarify the precise neutralizing epitopes of H protein and extend the knowledge of mechanisms of virus neutralization. In this study, a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) 2D12 against CDV H protein, which had different reactivity with different CDV strains, was generated and characterized. A series of truncated H proteins were screened to define the minimal linear epitope 238DIEREFD244 recognized by 2D12. Further investigation revealed that the epitope was highly conserved in America-1 vaccine lineage of CDV strains, but different substitutions in the epitope appeared in CDV strains of the other lineages and two substitutions (D238Y and R241G) caused the change of antigenicity. Thus, the epitope represents a novel lineage-specific neutralizing target on H protein of CDV for differentiation of America-1 vaccine lineage and the other lineages of CDV strains. The epitope was identified to localize at the surface of H protein in two different positions in a three-dimensional (3D) structure, but not at the position of the receptor-binding site (RBS), so the mAb 2D12 that recognized the epitope did not inhibit binding of H protein to the receptor. But mAb 2D12 interfered with the H-F interaction for inhibiting membrane fusion, suggesting that the mAb plays key roles for formation of H-F protein oligomeric structure. Our data will contribute to the understanding of the structure, function, and antigenicity of CDV H protein and mechanisms of virus neutralization.
