Effective vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 is the utmost importance in the current world. More than 1 million deaths are accounted for relevant pandemic disease COVID-19. Recent data showed that D614G genotype of the virus is highly infectious and responsible for almost all infection for 2nd wave. Despite of multiple vaccine development initiatives, there are currently no report that has addressed this critical variant D614G as vaccine candidate. Here we report the development of an mRNA-LNP vaccine considering the D614G variant and characterization of the vaccine in preclinical trial. The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) data with spike protein as probe and competitive neutralization with RBD and S2 domain revealed that immunization generated specific antibody pools against the whole extracellular domain (RBD and S2) of the spike protein. The anti-sera and purified IgGs from immunized mice on day 7 and 14 neutralized SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus in ACE2-expressing HEK293 cells in a dose dependent manner. Importantly, immunization protected mice lungs from pseudovirus entry and cytopathy. The immunologic responses have been implicated by a balanced and stable population of CD4+ cells with a Th1 bias. The IgG2a to IgG1 and (IgG2a+IgG2b) to (IgG1+IgG3) ratios were found 1±0.2 and 1.24±0.1, respectively. These values are comparatively higher than relevant values for other published SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in development,1, 2 and suggesting higher viral clearance capacity for our vaccine. The data suggested great promise for immediate translation of the technology to the clinic. |
