A Natural Peptide Antigen within the Plasmodium Ribosomal Protein RPL6 Confers Liver TRM Cell-Mediated Immunity against Malaria in Mice

Abstract: Highlights d The Plasmodium ribosomal protein RPL6 is expressed during liver-stage infection d RPL6 can be targeted by specific liver T RM cells for efficient parasite elimination d Prime-and-trap vaccination targeting RPL6 induces effective protection against malaria d RPL6 is highly conserved across global P. falciparum clinical isolates

“…These studies have also demonstrated that substantial numbers of liver T RM cells are associated with higher levels of immunity to malaria, and depletion of these cells ablates protection [6,9]. Based on these results, several complex vaccinations strategies, aimed at trapping activated CD8 + T cells in the liver, have now successfully induced the formation of liver T RM cells in mice [6][7][8][9]. One vaccination strategy, prime-and-trap, is a single injection of a 3-component vaccine designed to prime Plasmodium-specific CD8 + T cells in the spleen and recruit them to the liver to form T RM cells via locally expressed antigen recognition and adjuvant-induced inflammation [6,9].…”

“…A 'prime and trap' vaccination approach induced protective immunity against liver-stage malaria in a preclinical study. 4 T cells are first activated in the spleen with the ribosomal L6 protein from Plasmodium berghei, and then trapped in the liver to form resident memory cells. A single vaccine dose provided lasting protection from sporozoite challenge in a mouse model of malaria.…”
