    Abstract Regulatorische B-Zellen (Bregs) stellen eine heterogene Gruppe von B-Zellen dar, welche in der Lage sind, inflammatorische Immunantworten zu unterdrücken. Bregs tragen damit zur Aufrechterhaltung von Toleranz und zur Immunhomöostase bei, indem sie laufende Immunreaktionen räumlich und zeitlich begrenzen. Die herausragende Rolle von Bregs bei der Eindämmung pathologisch überschießender Entzündungsreaktionen, mit der sowohl Allergien, Autoimmunerkrankungen und Transplantatabstoßungen, aber auch Infektionen, Neoplasien und Stoffwechselerkrankungen einhergehen können, wurde in einer Vielzahl von Tiermodellen nachgewiesen. Die ersten Studien zu Bregs identifizierten IL-10 als funktionelles Schlüsselmolekül, weshalb die murine IL-10-produzierende B10-Zelle noch immer als Prototyp für Bregs gilt und IL-10 bei der Suche nach humanen Äquivalenten für Bregs lange im Vordergrund stand. In den letzten 2 Jahrzehnten wurde jedoch eine ganze Reihe weiterer Moleküle entdeckt, die – teilweise auch ausschließlich in humanen Bregs – zu ihrer immunsuppressiven Funktion beitragen können. Zu diesem erweiterten Arsenal gehören zum einen weitere entzündungshemmende Zytokine wie IL-35 und TGF-β, aber auch Enzyme wie Granzym B, CD39/CD73 und IDO, sowie Zelloberflächenproteine wie CD1d, PD-L1 und CD25. Ziel des vorliegenden Übersichtsartikels soll es sein, die mutmaßliche Rolle von Bregs insbesondere bei unterschiedlichen Humanpathologien zu beleuchten und dabei ihre potenzielle therapeutische und prognostische Relevanz hervorzuheben.

    Abstract COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) has been explored as one of the treatment options for COVID-19. Results of many cohort studies and clinical trials have been recently published. At first glance, the results of the CCP studies appear to be inconsistent. However, it became clear that CCP is not beneficial if CCP with low anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations is used, if it is administered late in advanced disease stages, and to patients who already mounted an antibody response against SARS-CoV-2 at the time of CCP transfusion. On the other hand, CCP may prevent progression to severe COVID-19 when very high-titer CCP is given early in vulnerable patients. Immune escape of new variants is a challenge for passive immunotherapy. While new variants of concern developed resistance to most clinically used monoclonal antibodies very rapidly, immune plasma from individuals immunized by both a natural SARS-CoV-2 infection and SARS-CoV-2 vaccination retained neutralizing activity against variants. This review briefly summarizes the evidence on CCP treatment to date and identifies further research needs. Ongoing research on passive immunotherapy is not only relevant for improving care for vulnerable patients in the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, but even more as a model for passive immunotherapy in case of future pandemics with a newly evolving pathogen. Compared to other drugs, which must be newly developed in a pandemic (e.g., monoclonal antibodies, antiviral drugs), convalescent plasma is rapidly available, inexpensive to produce, and can be adaptive to viral evolution by selection of contemporary convalescent donors.

    Methods and findings: The study included 313 serum samples from 155 individuals with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection, divided into subgroups without (n=25) and with SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (n=130). We measured anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations by serological assays (anti-SARS-CoV-2-QuantiVac-ELISA (IgG) and Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S) and neutralizing titers against B.1, BA.1, BA.2 and BA.5 in a pseudovirus neutralization assay. Sera of the majority of unvaccinated convalescents did not effectively neutralize Omicron sublineages BA.1, BA.2 and BA.5 (51.7%, 24.1% and 51.7%, resp.). In contrast, 99.3% of the sera of superimmunized individuals (vaccinated convalescents) neutralized the Omicron subvariants BA.1 and BA.5 and 99.6% neutralized BA.2. Neutralizing titers against B.1, BA.1, BA.2 and BA.5 were significantly higher in vaccinated compared to unvaccinated convalescents (p<0.0001) with 52.7-, 210.7-, 141.3- and 105.4-fold higher geometric mean of 50% neutralizing titers (NT50) in vaccinated compared to unvaccinated convalescents. 91.4% of the superimmunized individuals showed neutralization of BA.1, 97.2% of BA.2 and 91.5% of BA.5 with a titer ≥ 640. The increase in neutralizing titers was already achieved by one vaccination dose. Neutralizing titers were highest in the first 3 months after the last immunization event. Concentrations of anti-S antibodies in the anti-SARS-CoV-2-QuantiVac-ELISA (IgG) and Elecsys Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S assays predicted neutralization capacity against B.1 and Omicron subvariants BA.1, BA.2 and BA.5.
    Conclusions: These findings confirm substantial immune evasion of the Omicron sublineages, which can be overcome by vaccination of convalescents. This informs strategies for choosing of plasma donors in COVID-19 convalescent plasma programs that shall select specifically vaccinated convalescents with very high titers of anti-S antibodies.
