Importantly, we were able to detect similar patterns of delta and omicron variant resistance to neutralization in samples with paired vaccine strain and delta variant BoAb measurements. Finally, we screened clinical samples from patients with or without evidence of SARS-CoV-2 exposure by Ophiopogonin D&#8217; a single-dilution screening version of our assays, finding significant nAb activity only in exposed individuals. Importantly, this completely automated assay can be performed in 4?h to measure neutralizing antibody titers for 16 samples over 8 serial dilutions or, 128 samples at a single dilution with replicates. In principle, these assays offer a rapid, robust, and scalable alternative to time-, skill-, and cost-intensive standard methods for measuring SARS-CoV-2 nAb levels. Subject areas: Diagnostics, Virology, Biochemical assay Graphical abstract Open in a separate window Highlights ? This assay is significantly faster than regular neutralization assays (4?h vs. 5?days) ? Detects neutralizing Abs against prefusion state of the spike trimer ? Assay is automated, significantly reducing Ophiopogonin D&#8217; labor and cost ? 128 samples (in duplicate) can be completed in 4 h Introduction Levels of neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) against SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses predict vaccine efficacy and immune protection after natural infection.1,2,3,4,5 In addition, the degree of protection from sterilizing immunity to prevention of severe disease correlates strongly with nAb levels at any given time post-vaccination or infection.6 Thus, the ability to reliably detect and quantify SARS-CoV-2 nAbs at scale is critical in public health effort to reach population level protection in the face of waning immunity and a need for boosters.7 In addition, the emergence of viral variants that escape neutralization by vaccine-induced antibodies underscores the importance of building efficient and reliable pipelines for nAb assay development as new variants are sequenced and rise to the level of interest or concern (VOI or VOC). SARS-CoV-2 spike (S)?protein is a large homotrimeric glycoprotein, which adopts a metastable prefusion conformation before its high affinity interaction with host-membrane-associated angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2).8,9,10 Native S protein forms two proteolytically cleaved extracellular subunits (S1 and S2), with S1 containing a specific 222 amino acid (AA) receptor binding domain (RBD) that binds to ACE-2.11,12,13 Thus, S1 promotes receptor recognition and high affinity binding. The S2 subunit, in turn, drives membrane fusion through a fusion peptide (FP), two heptad repeat regions (HR1\/2), and a transmembrane domain linked to the cytoplasmic tail.14 To date, studies of neutralizing antibodies elicited by vaccination and natural infection as well as monoclonal antibody therapies have largely focused on antibodies that bind and inhibit interactions through SARS-CoV-2 RBD.15 However, studies have also identified targets of neutralizing activity in SARS-CoV-2?S protein outside of the RBD, including regions in S2 proximal to the FP and HR2. 16 These findings were recently bolstered in a study by Garrett et?al. using phage deep mutation scanning (Phage-DMS) to comprehensively interrogate immunodominant epitopes of antibodies in SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma as well as routes of antibody escape <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adooq.com\/ophiopogonin-d.html\">Ophiopogonin D&#8217;<\/a> by the virus. Ophiopogonin D&#8217; This study independently identified non-RBD epitopes for neutralizing antibodies in FP and HR2.16 Together these findings highlight the importance of closely approximating the native structure and domain organization of spike in any robust assay for SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies. Current standard assays for measuring nAbs against SARS-CoV-2 require live, replication-competent wild virus isolates or infectious molecular clones.17,18 While these assays are important tools for research, they require a biosafety level 3 (BSL3) environment, are difficult to standardize, and are poorly suited for any scaled clinical application due to facilities, personnel, and safety requirements. A second tier of widely accepted nAb assays employs replication incompetent reporter virusescommonly using backbones derived from either HIV or VSVpseudotyped with SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S).19,20 These pseudovirus neutralization assays (PNAs) require only BSL2 working conditions and can be scaled for higher throughput. However, both live and pseudoviral assays require use and maintenance of living target cells, which introduces technical variability as well as regulatory complications to clinical testing operations that may seek Ophiopogonin D&#8217; to employ them. Furthermore, they are manual, labor-intensive assays with turn-around-times of several days.
