Abstrakt: | Background: Shigella is the third leading global cause of moderate or severe diarrhoea among children younger than 5 years globally, and is the leading cause in children aged 24-59 months. The mechanism of protection against Shigella infection and disease in endemic areas is uncertain. We aimed to compare the Shigella-specific antibody responses in individuals living in Shigella-endemic and non-endemic areas, and to identify correlates of protection in a Shigella-endemic location. Methods: We applied a systems approach to retrospectively analyse serological responses to Shigella across endemic and non-endemic populations. We profiled serum samples collected from 44 individuals from the USA without previous exposure to Shigella and who were experimentally challenged with Shigella sonnei (non-endemic setting), and serum samples collected from 55 Peruvian army recruits (endemic setting). In the endemic setting, a subset of 37 samples collected from individuals infected with culture-confirmed Shigella flexneri 2a were divided into two groups: susceptible, which included individuals infected within 90 days of entering the camp (n=29); or resistant, which included individuals infected later than 90 days after entering the camp (n=8). We analysed Shigella-specific antibody isotype, subclass, and Fc receptor binding profiles across IpaB, IpaC, IpaD, and lipopolysaccharide from S flexneri 2a, 3a, and 6, and S sonnei, and O-specific polysaccharide (OSP) from S flexneri 2a and 3a and S sonnei. We also evaluated antibody-mediated complement deposition and innate immune cell activation. The main outcome of interest was the detection of antibody markers and functionality associated with protection against shigellosis in a high-burden endemic setting. Findings: Adults with endemic exposure to Shigella possessed broad and functional antibody responses across polysaccharide, glycolipid, and protein antigens compared with individuals from non-endemic regions. In a setting with high Shigella burden, elevated levels of OSP-specific Fcα receptor (FcαR) binding antibodies were associated with resistance to shigellosis, whereas total OSP-specific IgA was not, suggesting a potentially unique functionality. OSP-specific FcαR binding IgA found in resistant individuals activated bactericidal neutrophil functions including phagocytosis, degranulation, and production of reactive oxygen species. Moreover, IgA depletion from resistant serum significantly reduced binding of OSP-specific antibodies to FcαR and antibody-mediated activation of neutrophils and monocytes. Interpretation: Our findings suggest that OSP-specific functional IgA responses contribute to protective immunity against Shigella infection in a high-burden setting. These findings will assist in the development and evaluation of Shigella vaccines. Funding: US National Institutes of Health.
