Abstract

Under the ever-present threat of a pandemic influenza strain, the evolution of a broadly reactive, neutralizing, functional, humoral immune response may hold the key to protection against both circulating and emerging influenza strains. We apply a systems approach to profile hemagglutinin- and neuraminidase-specific humoral signatures that track with the evolution of broad immunity in a cohort of vaccinated individuals and validate these findings in a second longitudinal cohort. Multivariate analysis reveals the presence of a unique pre-existing Fcγ-receptor-binding antibody profile in individuals that evolved broadly reactive hemagglutination inhibition activity (HAI), marked by the presence of elevated levels of pre-existing FCGR2B-binding antibodies. Moreover, vaccination with FCGR2B-binding antibody-opsonized influenza results in enhanced antibody titers and HAI activity in a murine model. Together, these data suggest that pre-existing FCGR2B binding antibodies are a key correlate of the evolution of broadly protective influenza-specific antibodies, providing insight for the design of next-generation influenza vaccines.

Keywords: FCGR2B; Fc receptor; antibody; hemagglutination inhibition; influenza; vaccine.
