The invention relates to the discovery that TMPRSS2 acts as a functional receptor for HKU1. TMPRSS2 triggers HKU1 spike-mediated cell-cell fusion and viral pseudotype infection. Catalytically inactive TMPRSS2 mutants do not cleave spike but allow infection, demonstrating that HKU1 binding and processing represent two distinct functions of the receptor. TMPRSS2 binds with high affinity to HKU1 receptor binding domain (RED), but neither to OC43 nor to SARS-CoV-2. Conserved amino acids were identified within the RED that are essential for binding to TMPRSS2 and infection. Anti- TMPRSS2 VHH antibodies were generated that inhibit HKU1 spike binding to TMPRSS2, fusion and infection.

Abrégé

The success of anti-tumor immune responses requires effector T cells to infiltrate solid tumors, a process guided by chemokines. Herein, we demonstrate that in vivo post-translational processing of chemokines by dipeptidylpeptidase 4 (DPP4, also known as CD26) limits lymphocyte migration to sites of inflammation and tumors. Inhibition of DPP4 enzymatic activity enhanced tumor rejection by preserving biologically active CXCL10, and increasing trafficking into the tumor by lymphocytes expressing the counter-receptor CXCR3. Furthermore, DPP4 inhibition improved adjuvant-based immunotherapy, adoptive T cell transfer and checkpoint blockade. These findings provide the first direct in vivo evidence for controlling lymphocyte trafficking through CXCL10 cleavage and support the use of DPP4 inhibitors for stabilizing the biologically active form of chemokines as a strategy to enhance tumor immunotherapy.

The present invention relates to the treatment of IgE-mediated disease. The inventors hypothesized that formation of immune complexes between Omalizumab and IgE might be responsible for some of the adverse reactions observed in highly atopic patients (i.e. patients with a history of anaphylaxis and/or high IgE titers). Immune complexes can induce inflammation through activation of Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) and/or the complement cascade. They identified that Omalizumab:hIgE immune complexes activate human FcγRs in vitro. Moreover, similarly to some of the reported side effects observed in human, Omalizumab:hIgE immune complexes can induce anaphylaxis when injected in mice expressing human FcγRs. Using publicly available omalizumab VH and VL sequences, they cloned and produced two mutant versions of omalizumab in which residues in the Fc portion of the Ab were mutated. These variants did not induce anaphylaxis when injected into mice expressing human FcγRs and could be thus used for the treatment of IgE-mediated disease. Thus invention relates to a recombinant immunoglobulin heavy chain protein which comprises at least one mutation in the Fc portion and recombinant antibody comprising said heavy chain protein.

Abrégé

Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) represent innate versions of T helper and cytotoxic T cells that differentiate from committed ILC precursors (ILCP). Still, how ILCP relate to mature tissue-resident ILCs remains unclear. ILCP that are present in the blood and all tested lymphoid and non-lymphoid human tissues were identified. Human ILCP fail to express the signature transcription factors (TF) and cytokine outputs of mature NK cells and ILCs but are epigenetically poised to do so. Human ILCP robustly generate all ILC subsets in vitro and in vivo. While human ILCP express RAR related orphan receptor C (RORC), circulating ILCP can be found in RORC-deficient patients that retain potential for EOMES+ NK cells, T-BET+ ILC1, GATA-3+ ILC2 and for IL-22+ but not for IL-17A+ ILC3. A model of tissue ILC differentiation (‘ILC-poiesis’) is proposed whereby diverse ILC subsets are generated in situ from ILCP in response to environmental stressors, inflammation and infection.

The current or present exposure or infection with SARS-CoV-2 can be detected and/or diagnosed using the disclosed compositions and methods. Typically, the presence and/or elevated amount of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the individual’s biological sample compared to a control is indicative of current or past exposure or infection with SARS-CoV-2 as discussed herein.

The present invention is based on the observation that a dual AAV vector strategy encoding isoform 5 of otoferlin cDNA that has been split into two expression cassettes both packaged in - and delivered by - an AAV8 capsid can efficiently deliver the otoferlin cDNA to the inner hair cell (IHC). Moreover, the inventors highlighted that the use of the CMV promoter in one of the two AAV8 vectors provides a significant expression of otoferlin in these particular cells. As the AAV serotype and the type of promoter used are two key elements that have a significant effect on the transduction efficiency, the development of the vector system of the invention is going to provide optimal therapeutic benefit in patients suffering from DFNB9 deafness. To further improve this therapeutic effect, the inventors finally tested some particular otoferlin-encoding dual vector constructs to identify enhanced transfection rate and a very effective in vitro and in vivo otoferlin expression in mature cochlea of DFNB9 mice models, leading to the restoration of their hearing.
