    Abstract The global COVID-19 pandemic has caused more than 1 billion infections, and numerous SARS-CoV-2 vaccines developed rapidly have been administered over 10 billion doses. The world is continuously concerned about the cytokine storms induced by the interaction between SARS-CoV-2 and host, long COVID, breakthrough infections postvaccination, and the impact of SARS-CoV-2 variants. BCR-CDR3 repertoire serves as a molecular target for monitoring the antiviral response "trace" of B cells, evaluating the effects, mechanisms, and memory abilities of individual responses to B cells, and has been successfully applied in analyzing the infection mechanisms, vaccine improvement, and neutralizing antibodies preparation of influenza virus, HIV, MERS, and Ebola virus. Based on research on BCR-CDR3 repertoire of COVID-19 patients and volunteers who received different SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in multiple laboratories worldwide, we focus on analyzing the characteristics and changes of BCR-CDR3 repertoire, such as diversity, clonality, V&J genes usage and pairing, SHM, CSR, shared CDR3 clones, as well as the summary on BCR sequences targeting virus-specific epitopes in the preparation and application research of SARS-CoV-2 potential therapeutic monoclonal antibodies. This review provides comparative data and new research schemes for studying the possible mechanisms of differences in B cell response between SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination, and supplies a foundation for improving vaccines after SARS-CoV-2 mutations and potential antibody therapy for infected individuals.

    Abstract The humoral immune response of B cells is the key to the protection of specific immunity, and immune aging reshapes its production and function. The decreased B cell immune function is an indicator of immune senescence. The impaired humoral immune function mediated by antibody secreted by B cells leads to a decline in the response of elderly individuals to the vaccine. These people are therefore more susceptible to infection and deterioration, and have a higher incidence of tumors and metabolic diseases. Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is an enzyme that triggers immunoglobulin class conversion recombination (CSR) and somatic high frequency mutation (SHM). It decreases during immune senescence and is considered to be a biomarker of decreased B cell function in aging mice and humans. Understanding the inherent defects of B-cell immune senescence and the regulation mechanism of AID in the aging process can provide new research ideas for the susceptibility, prevention and treatment of diseases in the elderly.

    Abstract Background: Bats have garnered increased attention in the field of life sciences for their typical biological characteristics of carrying a variety of zoonotic viruses without disease, long lifespans, low tumorigenesis rates, and high metabolism. When it was found that bats can carry the rabies virus, over 60 years of research revealed that bats host over 4100 distinct viruses, including Ebola virus and SARS-CoV.
    Objectives: This paper primarily reviews the profiles of zoonotic viruses carried by bats across various regions globally. The review aims to provide a foundation and reference for future research on monitoring zoonotic viruses in diverse global regions and bat species, exploring the coevolutionary relationship between bats and viruses, understanding the tolerance mechanisms of bat B cells, prevention, and treatment of zoonotic diseases caused by bats.
    Sources: The search used 'bat', 'bats', 'rabies virus', 'Dengue virus', 'West Nile virus', 'Zika virus', 'St. Louis encephalitis virus', 'Japanese encephalitis virus', 'Hantavirus', 'Novel hantavirus', 'Rift Valley fever virus', 'Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus', 'Paramyxovirus', 'Nipah virus', 'Hendra virus', 'Menangle virus', 'Tioman virus', 'Marburg Virus', 'Bombali virus', 'Ebola virus', 'Influenza A virus', 'coronavirus', 'Hepatitis B virus', and 'Hepatitis E virus' as text in PubMed.
    Content: A total of 147 references were obtained. Surveys on severe zoonotic virus carriage have been limited to only 83 bat species belonging to nine families, which are distributed all over the world. We also briefly describe the antibody responses and B-cell molecules in bats.
    Implications: Several viruses have been found in different species of bats. This suggests that bats may be important hosts for future viral infectious diseases. Particularly in recent years, the close correlation between human infection pandemics caused by coronaviruses and bats highlights the pressing need to comprehend the species, tolerance, and coevolutionary mechanisms of zoonotic viruses carried by different bat species.

    Abstract Since the initial report of V (D) J "allelic exclusion/inclusion" (allelic exclusion rearrangement or allelic inclusion rearrangement) and the concept of the "dual B cell receptor (BCR)" in 1961, despite ongoing discoveries, the precise proportion and source mechanism of dual BCR under physiological conditions have been puzzling immuologists. This study takes advantage of the single cell B cell receptor sequencing (scBCR-seq) technology, which can perfectly match the heavy and light chains of BCR at the level of a single B cell, and obtain the full length mRNA sequence of the complementary determining region 3 (CDR3). Through analyzing the pairing of functional IGH (immunoglobulin heavy chain) and IGL (immunoglobulin light chain) in single B cell from both human and mouse bone marrow and peripheral blood, it was observed that dual BCR B cells exhibit stable and high levels of expression. Among them, the human bone marrow and peripheral blood contain about 10% dual (or multiple) BCR B cells, while in mouse peripheral blood and bone marrow memory B cells, this proportion reaches around 20%. At the same time, we innovatively found that in each research sample of humans and mice, there are three (or more) functional rearrangements (mRNA level) of a single chain in a single B cell. By analyzing the position, direction and other compositional characteristics of the V(D)J gene family, we found that at least two (or more) of them are derived from over two (or more) specific allelic inclusion rearrangements of a single chromosome (mRNA molecular level evidence), our findings also highlighted the necessity of classified single cell sequencing data based on single, dual (or multiple) and cannot be assembled into BCR when analyzing the B cell repertoire. The results of this article provides new methods and modeling references for evaluating the proportion and source mechanisms of dual BCR B cells, as well as potential significance of allelic inclusion (exclusion escape) of V(D)J rearrangement.

    Abstract The emergence and re-emergence of abundant viruses from bats that impact human and animal health have resulted in a resurgence of interest in bat immunology. Characterizing the immune receptor repertoire is critical to understanding how bats coexist with viruses in the absence of disease and developing new therapeutics to target viruses in humans and susceptible livestock.

    Abstract T-cell antigen receptors (TRs) in vertebrates can be divided into αβ or γδ, encoded by TRA/D, TRG, or TRB loci. TRs play a central role in mammal cellular immunity, which occurs by rearrangement of V, D, J, and C genes in the loci. The bat is the only mammal with flying ability and is considered the main host of zoonotic viruses, an important public health concern. However, at present, little is known about the composition of bat TR genes. Based on the whole genome sequence of the greater horseshoe bat (

    Abstract T cell receptor (TCR) is an integral part of T cell recognition antigen, and the sum of TCR of all T cells in an individual is called the TCR repertoire. Understanding the composition and characteristics of the TCR repertoire in healthy and pathological state helps us to gain an insight into adaptive immunity. At present, many analysis tools for high-throughput data have been developed, including basic composition analysis and downstream function analysis. The database of antigen-specific T cells established by researchers is fundamental to clinical research. The analysis of the functional characteristics of the TCR repertoire is critical to the understanding of TCR repertoire. However, the existing downstream analysis tools still requires further application and verification. This paper reviewed several commonly used TCR repertoire analysis tools, which hopefully can provide a reference for non-bioinformatics researchers in choosing analysis tools.
