Intestinal helminth infection impairs vaccine-induced T cell responses and protection against SARS-CoV-2
2024-01-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Although vaccines have reduced COVID-19 disease burden, their efficacy in helminth infection endemic areas is not well characterized. We evaluated the impact of infection by Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri (Hpb), a murine intestinal hookworm, on the efficacy of an mRNA vaccine targeting the Wuhan-1 spike protein of SARS-CoV-2. Although immunization generated similar B cell responses in Hpb-infe...
