Article Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread globally; recognition of immune responses to this virus will be crucial for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) control, prevention and treatment. We comprehensively analysed IgG and IgA antibody responses to the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein (N), spike protein domain 1 (S1) and envelope protein (E) in: SARS-CoV-2-infected patient, healthy, historical and pre-epidemic samples, including patients' medical, epidemiological and diagnostic data, virus-neutralizing capability and kinetics. N-specific IgG and IgA are the most reliable diagnostic targets for infection. Serum IgG levels correlate to IgA levels. Half a year after infection, anti-N and anti-S1 IgG decreased, but sera preserved virus-inhibitory potency; thus, testing for IgG may underestimate the protective potential of antibodies. Historical and pre-epidemic sera did not inhibit SARS-CoV-2, thus its circulation before the pandemic and a protective role from antibodies pre-induced by other coronaviruses cannot be confirmed by this study.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is characterized by the development of fluid-filled kidney cysts and relentless progression to renal failure. Current treatments have adverse effects and limited efficacy, enhancing the need for improved therapeutics. Here, we provide a proof of concept for the use of dimeric immunoglobulin A (IgA) (dIgA) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to target epithelial-enclosed cysts, by exploiting their ability to transcytose via the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor highly expressed on renal cyst-lining cells.

Objectives: The current systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the safety and immunogenicity of the anticaries vaccines currently available.
Materials And Methods: Electronic searches of PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Science Direct were performed. Studies assessing the safety and effectiveness of the anticaries vaccination, including the dose, plasmids, serum IgG and IgA levels after immunization, were included.
Prepandemic levels of cytokines and immunoglobulins and risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 in the general population of Barcelona.

Background: From a public health perspective it is remarkable that there are yet no longitudinal studies in the general population investigating the influence of the basal immune state, measured before the pandemic, on the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19.
Objective: To investigate the specific and combined effects of personal levels of cytokines and immunoglobulins-measured in individuals' blood 4 years before the pandemic-on the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 in a general population.
Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study in 240 individuals from the general population of Barcelona.

Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Clinical Immunology, Jiangsu Institute of Clinical Immunology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, No. 178 Ganjiang East Road, Gusu District, Suzhou, 215021, Jiangsu, China.
Objectives: We aimed to explore the expression and clinical significance of TIGITCD56NK cells within the peripheral blood of patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) in this study, as well as to examine the role of TIGIT in modulating NK cell function in individuals with pSS.
Methods: The percentage of TIGITCD56NK cells was detected in the peripheral blood of 76 individuals with pSS and 63 healthy controls (HCs) using flow cytometry. The percentage of TIGITCD56NK cells across various clinical features, laboratory parameters, and between active and inactive patients was analyzed.
