IgG Isotype specificity, surface expression of NS1 proteins, ADCC, complement fixation, and T cell responses of MVA-ZIKV-NS1 antisera. (a) The magnitude of Ig isotype specificity of immune sera from MVA-ZIKV-NS1 immunized mice was determined by ELISA, using rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin isotype-specific antibodies recognizing IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG3, IgM, or IgA antibodies. (b) NS1-expression of inoculated Vero cells assayed by flow cytometric analysis. (c) ADCC activity observed following incubation of ZIKV-infected Vero cells (target cells) with serial dilutions of immune sera generated from MVA-ZIKV-NS1, Adeno-prME VLPs24, or naïve sera in the presence of effector cells (Jurkat cell line). (d) Complement-mediated lysis of ZIKV-infected Vero cells. C′, native complement, ΔC′, heat inactivated complement. Naïve sera, sera from sham immunized mice. (e,f) T cell responses of immunized mice. (f) ICS analysis of CD8+ T cells demonstrated IL2 and IFNγ production in the CD8+ T cell subset 10 days post-vaccination. (e) No appreciable cytokine production was observed in CD4+ T cells by this time.
