Our new study just published in @CellRepMed shows that SARS-CoV-2 vaccine breakthrough infections (BTIs) have a positive effect on T cell responses! 1/8 cell.com/cell-reports-medici…
@SetteLab @Alba_Grifoni @profshanecrotty @P1RAD @TertuAPN @LJIresearch
We also identified novel epitopes recognizing variant-specific mutations, accounting for 9-15% of the total epitope repertoire. This indicates that the T cell response is responding to variant evolution and is able to generate new responses to the evolving virus. 7/8
Read more about our study in the full manuscript to learn how BTI influences T cell immunity against SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Stay tuned for updates on our research! 8/8

New findings from @SetteLab, @Alba_Grifoni, and @aetarke!
🔎T cells against alpha or beta common cold #coronaviruses tend to be cross-reactive
🔎These viruses have MANY similarities in epitope sequences
🔎T cells showed cross-reactivity in 89% of tests

Go T cells! How can we be better prepared for upcoming coronaviruses? We focus on the T cell side of the question in a recent collaboration between me @settelab @ljiresearch and Richard Scheuermann @JCVenterInst published in @CellRepMed cell.com/cell-reports-medici…

Can CD4+ T cells cross-recognize different coronaviruses (CoV), offering immune protection from potential future CoV pandemics? We explore this concept in our new study, just posted in pre-print. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
@Alba_Grifoni @SetteLab 1/5
We found that T cells can recognize different viruses when the coronavirus sequences were conserved. Specifically, if conservation was >67%, we observed cross-reactivity in 89% of the fragments tested. 4/5
