Developing pan-β-coronavirus vaccines against emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern

Shan Su, Weihua Li, Shibo Jiang

Summary: The simultaneous presence of SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV raises concerns about the potential emergence of new beta-coronavirus strains with high transmissibility similar to SARS-CoV-2 and high mortality rates similar to MERS-CoV. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop pan-beta-CoV vaccines capable of targeting not only current variants of concern, but also potential future coronaviruses resembling SARS-CoV-3 or MERSCoV-2.

A Toxin-Conjugated Recombinant Protein Targeting gp120 and gp41 for Inactivating HIV-1 Virions and Killing Latency-Reversing Agent-Reactivated Latent Cells

Xinling Wang, Wei Xu, Zezhong Liu, Yanling Wu, Qian Wang, Miao Cao, Tianlei Ying, Na He, Lu Lu, Shibo Jiang

Summary: In this study, a dual-targeting recombinant protein, DL35D, was designed and constructed to simultaneously target HIV-1 virus and latent cells. DL35D-DM1, produced by linking the DM1 toxin to DL35D, showed inhibitory and inactivation activity against HIV-1 infection and effectively killed HIV-1-infected cells and LRA-reactivated latent cells, making it a promising candidate for the development of a novel antiviral drug for potential HIV functional cure.

Homologous or heterologous booster of inactivated vaccine reduces SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant escape from neutralizing antibodies

Xun Wang, Xiaoyu Zhao, Jieyu Song, Jing Wu, Yuqi Zhu, Minghui Li, Yuchen Cui, Yanjia Chen, Lulu Yang, Jun Liu, Huanzhang Zhu, Shibo Jiang, Pengfei Wang

Summary: This study found that the Omicron variant is highly resistant to neutralization by sera from convalescents or individuals vaccinated with two doses of inactivated whole-virion vaccines. However, a homologous or heterologous booster significantly increased neutralization titers. Additionally, the Omicron variant resists most monoclonal antibodies targeting distinct epitopes. These findings highlight the importance of pushing forward booster vaccinations to combat emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Design of artificial α-helical peptides targeting both gp41 deep pocket and subpocket as potent HIV-1 fusion inhibitors

Huan Wang, Xinling Wang, Jiahui Li, Qing Li, Siliang Feng, Lu Lu, Chao Wang, Shibo Jiang

Summary: Both the deep pocket region and its neighboring subpocket site on the N-trimer of HIV-1 gp41 protein can be targeted for the development of HIV-1 entry inhibitors. This study reports the design of alpha-helical lipopeptides with non-native protein sequences as highly active HIV-1 fusion inhibitors that can occupy both the deep pocket and subpocket sites.

A Protein-Based, Long-Acting HIV-1 Fusion Inhibitor with an Improved Pharmacokinetic Profile

Wei Xu, Zhe Cong, Qianyu Duan, Qian Wang, Shan Su, Rui Wang, Lu Lu, Jing Xue, Shibo Jiang

Summary: A protein-based, long-acting HIV fusion inhibitor called FLT was designed and constructed, which binds with human serum albumin in a reversible manner to prolong the half-life of the HIV fusion inhibitor T1144. FLT showed high efficiency in inhibiting HIV infection and is considered a promising candidate for a new protein-based anti-HIV drug.

Rock1 is a novel host dependency factor of human enterovirus A71: Implication as a drug target

Xiaoyu Zhao, Cun Li, Man Chun Chiu, Rui Qiao, Shibo Jiang, Pengfei Wang, Jie Zhou

Summary: In this study, potent inhibitors against EV-A71 infection were identified through screening a kinase inhibitor library. Among the hits, the Rock inhibitor GSK269962A was found to efficiently suppress EV-A71 replication in RD cells and human intestinal organoids in a dose-dependent manner. Knockdown of Rock1, but not Rock2, significantly restricted viral replication in RD cells, suggesting that Rock1 could serve as a novel host dependency factor and target for the development of anti-EV-A71 therapeutics.

Advances in SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain-based COVID-19 vaccines

Xiaoqing Guan, Yang Yang, Lanying Du

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant damage to both humans and the economy, and vaccination is crucial in controlling the spread of the virus. The spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, particularly the receptor-binding domain (RBD), is an important target for vaccines. This review discusses the structure and function of the spike protein and its RBD, current COVID-19 vaccines targeting the RBD, and potential strategies for improving RBD-based vaccines. The information provided in this review is important for the rational design and development of safer and more effective COVID-19 vaccines.

A dePEGylated Lipopeptide-Based Pan-Coronavirus Fusion Inhibitor Exhibits Potent and Broad-Spectrum Anti-HIV-1 Activity without Eliciting Anti-PEG Antibodies

Ling Xu, Chao Wang, Wei Xu, Lixiao Xing, Jie Zhou, Jing Pu, Mingming Fu, Lu Lu, Shibo Jiang, Qian Wang

Summary: By replacing the PEG linker in EK1C4 with a short peptide, we designed and synthesized a dePEGylated lipopeptide, EKL1C, which showed potent inhibitory activity against coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, and HIV-1. This indicates that HR1 may serve as a common target for the development of broad-spectrum viral fusion inhibitors, and EKL1C has potential clinical application as a therapeutic or preventive agent against coronavirus, HIV-1, and other class I enveloped viruses.

IgG Fc-Binding Peptide-Conjugated Pan-CoV Fusion Inhibitor Exhibits Extended In Vivo Half-Life and Synergistic Antiviral Effect When Combined with Neutralizing Antibodies

Xiaojie Su, Ziqi Huang, Wei Xu, Qian Wang, Lixiao Xing, Lu Lu, Shibo Jiang, Shuai Xia

Summary: The peptide-based pan-coronavirus fusion inhibitor EK1 is showing promising clinical application prospects against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants. By conjugating EK1 with the human immunoglobulin G Fc-binding peptide (IBP), the engineered peptide IBP-EK1 demonstrates broad-spectrum inhibitory activity against various coronaviruses with improved in vivo half-life. It also shows synergistic effects when combined with monoclonal neutralizing antibodies, suggesting its potential as a long-acting, broad-spectrum antiviral agent against COVID-19 and future highly pathogenic coronaviruses.
