Trichinella spiralis Infection Inhibits the Efficacy of RBD Protein of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination via Regulating Humoral and Cellular Immunity. Vaccines (Basel) 2024; 12:729. [PMID: 39066367 PMCID: PMC11281533 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines12070729] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Vaccines are the most effective and feasible way to control pathogen infection. Helminths have been reported to jeopardize the protective immunity mounted by several vaccines. However, there are no experimental data about the effect of helminth infection on the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines. Here, a mouse model of trichinosis, a common zoonotic disease worldwide, was used to investigate effects of Trichinella spiralis infection on the RBD protein vaccine of SARS-CoV-2 and the related immunological mechanism, as well as the impact of albendazole (ALB) deworming on the inhibitory effect of the parasite on the vaccination. The results indicated that both the enteric and muscular stages of T. spiralis infection inhibited the vaccine efficacy, evidenced by decreased levels of IgG, IgM, sIgA, and reduced serum neutralizing antibodies, along with suppressed splenic germinal center (GC) B cells in the vaccinated mice. Pre-exposure to trichinosis promoted Th2 and/or Treg immune responses in the immunized mice. Furthermore, ALB treatment could partially reverse the inhibitory effect of T. spiralis infection on the efficiency of the vaccination, accompanied by a restored proportion of splenic GC B cells. Therefore, given the widespread prevalence of helminth infections worldwide, deworming therapy needs to be considered when implementing COVID-19 vaccination strategies.
