Overview of COVID-19 Virus• COVID-19 is caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory
Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – for the sake of simplicity, we’ll call it the COVID-19 virus
• The COVID-19 virus is an enveloped RNA virus• The COVID-19 virus consists of1
• Spike proteins (S protein)
• Envelope (lipid membrane)
• Envelope (E) and Membrane (M) proteins
• Nucleocapsid
• Nucleoproteins (N protein)
• Genetic material (RNA)
• Miscellaneous proteins
• Non-structural proteins (nsp)
• Accessory proteins (ORF, and others)3D Printed Model of COVID-19; Image Credit: NIAID-RML

• There are a number of potential epitopes that have been confirmed or are hypothesized to generate an immune response1,2:• S protein• N protein• M protein• Nsp3, nsp4• ORF3a, ORF8
• These epitopes have been confirmed or hypothesized to generate both T- and B-cell responses1,2
• For the purposes of today’s discussion, we will be focusing on B-Cell responses

General Review of Antibody DevelopmentUnderstanding antibody development1:
• Antibodies are produced by activated B-cells (also called plasma cells)
• B-lymphocytes recognize their targets through immunoglobulins present on the cell surface (B-cell receptor)
• Once a B-lymphocyte recognizes its target, it must also be activated by CD4+ T-cells (helper T-cells), which secrete B-lymphocyte growth factors
• Activated B-cells become plasma cells or memory B-cells
• Each plasma cell makes a single type of antibody• There are 5 general classes of antibody
(immunoglobulins)• IgA• IgD• IgE• IgM• IgG

General Review of Antibody Development• Understanding antibody development1:
• It takes time to develop an antibody response once exposed to antigen1
• IgM: Initial antibody produced upon initial exposure to antigen
• IgM appears 4-7 days after initial exposure, and peaks 7-10 days after initial exposure
• IgG: Longer term antibody produced upon initial exposure – provides long term protection against pathogen
• IgG appears 7-10 days after initial exposure, and peaks 10-14 days after initial exposure
• Upon re-exposure, memory B-cells rapidly reactivate plasma cells, which produce IgG, neutralizing pathogen

Do People Generate an Antibody Response to COVID-19?
• Yes!
• A cross-sectional study from 3 hospitals which included 285 pts demonstrated that 100% of pts develop either IgM, IgG, or both within 19 days of symptom onset• All pts were confirmed to be COVID-19+ by
PCR
• Serum Ig levels tested by ELISA

Unusual Regulatory Climate
• Ordinarily a test is developed by a company. Then the FDA evaluates and approves it after extensive testing. Clinical labs do a quick validation to make sure everything is working correctly on site.
• Due to current situation, FDA issued Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). High complexity CLIA certified labs just inherited all the work, liability and risk of what FDA used to do for us.
• Antibody testing was turned loose by FDA even before EUA issuance. Even more imperative that lab validation be performed carefully and correctly.
