Integrative mapping of preexisting influenza immune landscapes predicts vaccine response

Abstract

BACKGROUND Predicting individual vaccine responses is a substantial public health challenge. We developed Immunaut, an open-source, data-driven framework for systems vaccinologists to analyze and predict immunological outcomes across diverse vaccination settings, beyond traditional assessments.METHODS Using a comprehensive live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) dataset from 244 Gambian children, Immunaut integrated prevaccination and postvaccination humoral, mucosal, cellular, and transcriptomic data. Through advanced modeling, our framework provided a holistic, systems-level view of LAIV-induced immunity.RESULTS The analysis identified 3 distinct immunophenotypic profiles driven by baseline immunity: (a) CD8+ T cell responders with strong preexisting immunity boosting memory T cell responses; (b) mucosal responders with prior influenza A virus immunity developing robust mucosal IgA and subsequent influenza B virus seroconversion; and (c) systemic, broad influenza A virus responders starting from immune naivety who mounted broad systemic antibody responses. Pathway analysis revealed how preexisting immune landscapes and baseline features, such as mucosal preparedness and cellular support, quantitatively dictate vaccine outcomes.CONCLUSION Our findings emphasize the power of integrative, predictive frameworks for advancing precision vaccinology. The Immunaut framework is a valuable resource for deciphering vaccine response heterogeneity and can be applied to optimize immunization strategies across diverse populations and vaccine platforms.FUNDING Wellcome Trust (110058/Z/15/Z); Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (INV-004222); HIC-Vac Consortium; NIAID (R21 AI151917); NIAID CEIRR Network (75N93021C00045).

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.

Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
