<p>The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a highly pathogenic and zoonotic virus with a fatality rate in humans of over 35%. Although several vaccine candidates have been developed, there is still no clinically available vaccine for MERS-CoV. In this study, we developed two types of MERS-CoV vaccines: a recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 encoding the MERS-CoV spike gene (Ad5/MERS) and spike protein nanoparticles formulated with aluminum (alum) adjuvant. Next, we tested a heterologous prime–boost vaccine strategy, which compared priming with Ad5/MERS and boosting with spike protein nanoparticles and vice versa, with homologous prime–boost vaccination comprising priming and boosting with either spike protein nanoparticles or Ad5/MERS. Although both types of vaccine could induce specific immunoglobulin G against MERS-CoV, neutralizing antibodies against MERS-CoV were induced only by heterologous prime–boost immunization and homologous immunization with spike protein nanoparticles. Interestingly, Th1 cell activation was induced by immunization schedules including Ad5/MERS, but not by those including only spike protein nanoparticles. Heterologous prime–boost vaccination regimens including Ad5/MERS elicited simultaneous Th1 and Th2 responses, but homologous prime–boost regimens did not. Thus, heterologous prime–boost may induce longer-lasting immune responses against MERS-CoV because of an appropriate balance of Th1/Th2 responses. However, both heterologous prime–boost and homologous spike protein nanoparticles vaccinations could provide protection from MERS-CoV challenge in mice. Our results demonstrate that heterologous immunization by priming with Ad5/MERS and boosting with spike protein nanoparticles could be an efficient prophylactic strategy against MERS-CoV infection.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<p id="p0015">Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a zoonotic beta coronavirus that can infect several kinds of animals including humans, camels, and bats
<xref rid="b0005" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>
. It is known to cause severe respiratory symptoms and to have a high mortality rate
<xref rid="b0005" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>
. The key receptor for MERS-CoV infection, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), is widely distributed on human endothelial and epithelial cells
<xref rid="b0010" ref-type="bibr">[2]</xref>
. Except for cases in Korea in 2015, most infections with MERS-CoV (82%) have occurred in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The total number of laboratory-confirmed cases of MERS-CoV infection is 2040 with 712 deaths related to MERS-CoV infection since September 2012. Thus, the human mortality rate of MERS-CoV infection is approximately 35%
<xref rid="b0015" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>
.</p>
<p id="p0020">The genome of MERS-CoV is single-stranded RNA that encodes 10 proteins including two replicase polyproteins (open reading frames [ORF], 1ab and 1a), three structural proteins (E, N, and M), a surface glycoprotein (S, spike), which comprises S1 and S2, and five nonstructural proteins (ORF 3, 4a, 4b, and 5)
<xref rid="b0020" ref-type="bibr">[4]</xref>
. The main viral protein is the spike protein, which binds to the cell surface receptor DPP4 during the viral entry stage via the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of spike subunit S1
<xref rid="b0025" ref-type="bibr">[5]</xref>
. Because the spike protein is the most immunogenic structural protein
<xref rid="b0030" ref-type="bibr">[6]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0035" ref-type="bibr">[7]</xref>
, the final goal of most current studies of MERS-CoV vaccines is to elicit neutralizing antibodies against this specific MERS-CoV spike protein.</p>
<p id="p0025">Although several approaches to developing a MERS-CoV vaccine have been reported, there is no clinically approved vaccine for MERS-CoV. Previous studies have investigated viral vector-based vaccines

<xref rid="b0050" ref-type="bibr">[10]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0055" ref-type="bibr">[11]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0060" ref-type="bibr">[12]</xref>
, subunit vaccines
<xref rid="b0065" ref-type="bibr">[13]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0070" ref-type="bibr">[14]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0075" ref-type="bibr">[15]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0080" ref-type="bibr">[16]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0085" ref-type="bibr">[17]</xref>
, and DNA vaccines
<xref rid="b0090" ref-type="bibr">[18]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0095" ref-type="bibr">[19]</xref>
. Of these, vaccination using viral vectors or DNA immunization successfully generated neutralizing antibodies and protected against infection
<xref rid="b0060" ref-type="bibr">[12]</xref>
. However, safety concerns about DNA vaccines and their weak induction of neutralizing antibodies plus the possibility of reduced efficacy of viral vector vaccines because of preexisting immunity against the viral vectors induced by repeated immunization cannot be ignored. Although protein subunit vaccines can induce neutralizing antibody, they usually elicit a lower level of cellular immune response which has close association with rapid viral clearance when infection occurs. In addition, subunit vaccines could not induce enough immune responses in host, resulting in failure to make long-term memory of antigen
<xref rid="b0100" ref-type="bibr">[20]</xref>

<p id="p0030">Therefore, we used a heterologous prime–boost immunization strategy combining recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 delivering MERS-CoV spike protein gene (Ad5/MERS) and MERS spike protein nanoparticles, because both types of vaccine have been shown to be safe in human trials. The results of this study showed that this heterologous prime–boost immunization strategy induced good humoral and cellular immune responses including neutralizing antibodies and activation of Th1 cells against MERS-CoV, and could protect mice against MERS-CoV infection. Therefore, this combined immunization with recombinant Ad5/MERS and spike protein nanoparticles may avoid the hurdles of preexisting antibody induced by repeated viral vector immunization and weak Th1 cell responses induced by protein subunit immunization.</p>

<title>Construction and expression of Ad5/MERS and spike protein nanoparticles</title>
<p id="p0075">Adenovirus serotype 5 for delivery of the full-length MERS spike protein gene (Ad5/MERS) was produced and tested for gene transduction efficiency in cell lines. HeLa cells and A549 cells were infected with 1, 10, or 50 MOI of Ad5/MERS. At 24 h after infection, lysates of each cell line were harvested and immunoblotted with a polyclonal anti-MERS spike protein antibody, produced in rats immunized with MERS spike protein nanoparticles formulated with alum. The lysates of HeLa and A549 cell lines infected with Ad5/MERS at over 10 MOI clearly contained the approximately 140-kDa MERS spike protein (
<xref rid="f0005" ref-type="fig">Fig. 1</xref>
A). These data confirmed that Ad5/MERS-infected cells can express the MERS spike protein. In addition, full-length MERS spike protein containing the transmembrane domain (amino acids 1297–1320) was produced in an insect cell culture system (

<title>Discussion</title>
<p id="p0110">Although the first MERS-CoV outbreak occurred in 2012, there is still no commercially licensed MERS-CoV vaccine for human use.

for immunization of mice or nonhuman primates. Subunit vaccines, such as spike protein and RBD protein, induced neutralizing antibody against MERS-CoV, indicating the induction of a humoral immune response, and the DNA vaccine triggered the activation of cytotoxic T cells, indicating the induction of a cellular immune response. However, subunit vaccines usually induce weak cellular immune and Th1 cell responses, whereas DNA vaccines induce weak humoral immune and Th2 cell responses

.</p>
<p id="p0115">In this study, although Ad5/MERS induced spike protein-specific antibodies, these antibodies showed weak neutralizing activity. In contrast, Ad5/MERS induced MERS spike protein-specific IFN-γ-secreting T cells, which indicated the activation of Th1 cells. Moreover, the levels of effector cytokines including TNF-α, IL-2, GM-CSF, and IFN-γ that were produced after stimulation of cultured splenocytes with CD8
<sup>+</sup>
T cell-specific peptide were higher in the Ad5/MERS-immunized groups. These cytokines are associated with both Th1 and Th2 immune responses. Therefore, the cytokine ELISA data indicate that Ad5/MERS immunization triggered activation of both Th1 and Th2 responses against MERS spike protein.</p>
<p id="p0120">However, although the Ad5 vector has some advantages for use in development of vaccines, such as the induction of cellular immune responses and easy production
<xref rid="b0125" ref-type="bibr">[25]</xref>
, previous studies have reported that repeated injections of recombinant Ad5 reduced the presentation of the targeted antigen to antigen-presenting cells because of the presence of preexisting antibody against Ad5, and that this preexisting antibody, which was induced by the first (priming) vaccination, prevented further immune responses. This could be because of the low titers of neutralizing antibody induced by Ad5/MERS
<xref rid="b0130" ref-type="bibr">[26]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0135" ref-type="bibr">[27]</xref>

<xref rid="b0170" ref-type="bibr">[34]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0175" ref-type="bibr">[35]</xref>
. Furthermore, these methods are dependent on the experimental conditions or the researcher’s skill. Therefore, to overcome this disadvantage but to take advantage of a viral vector vaccine, in this study we used a heterologous prime–boost vaccination strategy, in which Ad5/MERS was used for the first (priming) vaccination to activate the cellular immune response and then MERS spike protein nanoparticles was used for the second and third (first and second booster) vaccinations to activate the humoral immune response. As shown in
<xref rid="f0015" ref-type="fig">Fig. 3</xref>
,
<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>
, this strategy induced both specific neutralizing antibody and Th1 cells against MERS spike protein, indicating that it could effectively trigger a cellular immune response by priming with Ad5/MERS and bypass the limitations of viral vectors by boosting with MERS spike protein nanoparticles.</p>
<p id="p0125">A recent study analyzing patients who survived MERS virus infection demonstrated that survival depended on induction of both a cell-mediated immune response and neutralizing antibody
<xref rid="b0180" ref-type="bibr">[36]</xref>
. The analysis showed a correlation between the severity of symptoms, the activation of T cells extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and the intensity of the antibody response. According to these data, patients with stronger activation of a MERS-specific CD8
<sup>+</sup>
T cell response showed faster viral clearance and had relatively shorter exposure to the virus. In this regard, adenovirus vaccines, which are known to increase cellular immune responses via activation of CD8

T cells

,
<xref rid="b0185" ref-type="bibr">[37]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0190" ref-type="bibr">[38]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0195" ref-type="bibr">[39]</xref>
, may be strategic candidates for a MERS vaccine. The results shown in
<xref rid="f0030" ref-type="fig">Fig. 6</xref>
indicate that both the Ad5/MERS–spike protein group and the spike protein group were protected against MERS-CoV challenge, as indicated by smaller body weight loss and less severe lung pathology after MERS-CoV infection. However, the spike protein group did not induce a Th1 immune response, but rather a Th2 immune response including induction of neutralizing antibody. This imbalance of Th1/Th2 responses suggests that immunization with spike protein nanoparticles alone may provide short-term protection against virus infection but not long-term maintenance of a protective immune response.</p>
<p id="p0130">Previously, formalin-inactivated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine induced severe vaccine-enhanced respiratory disease (VERD) after natural RSV infection
<xref rid="b0205" ref-type="bibr">[41]</xref>
. Therefore, our safety concern is that VERD, even during a long interval between vaccination and natural infection, may increase MERS-CoV because it is another respiratory virus
<xref rid="b0005" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>
. It has also been shown that the induction of allergic and biased Th2 immune responses and infiltration of inflammatory cells in the airways and lungs are the main characteristics of VERD in RSV-inactivated vaccines
<xref rid="b0210" ref-type="bibr">[42]</xref>
,
<xref rid="b0215" ref-type="bibr">[43]</xref>
. Our heterologous prime-boost immunization strategy with Ad5/MERS and spike protein nanoparticle clearly showed a balanced induction of Th1 and Th2 immune responses. Therefore, this vaccine strategy may be safe. However, it requires more detailed study.</p>
<p id="p0135">Therefore, the heterologous vaccination strategy used in this study (Ad5/MERS prime and spike protein nanoparticles boost) is the method that would be most feasibly applied in the clinic, because it effectively uses the advantages of both a viral vector vaccine and a protein vaccine, concurrently inducing both Th1 and Th2 immune responses to induce protective immunity against MERS-CoV.</p>
