Humoral and cellular immunity in patients with rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (2022)
Journal Article
Gumber, L., Gomez, N., Hopkins, G., Tucis, D., Bartlett, L., Ayling, K., …Fairclough, L. (2023). Humoral and cellular immunity in patients with rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Rheumatology, 62(6), 2294-2303. https://doi.org/10.1093/rheumatology/keac574

Objectives: COVID-19 vaccine responses in rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases (RAIRD) remain poorly understood, in particular there is little known about whether people develop effective T-cell responses. We conducted a prospective cohort study to eva... Read More about Humoral and cellular immunity in patients with rare autoimmune rheumatic diseases following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

The changing vaccine landscape: rates of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy in young adults during vaccine rollout (2022)
Journal Article
Knight, H., Jia, R., Ayling, K., Blake, H., Morling, J. R., Villalon, A. M., …Vedhara, K. (2023). The changing vaccine landscape: rates of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance and hesitancy in young adults during vaccine rollout. Perspectives in Public Health, 143(4), 220-224. https://doi.org/10.1177/17579139221094750

Aims: Development and rollout of vaccines offers the best opportunity for population protection against the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus. However, hesitancy towards the vaccines might impede successful uptake in the United Kingdom, particularly in you...

HLA-DR polymorphism in SARS-CoV-2 infection and susceptibility to symptomatic COVID-19 (2022)
Journal Article
Astbury, S., Reynolds, C. J., Butler, D. K., Munoz-Sandoval, D. C., Lin, K., Pieper, F. P., …Altmann, D. M. (2022). HLA-DR polymorphism in SARS-CoV-2 infection and susceptibility to symptomatic COVID-19. Immunology, 166(1), 68-77. https://doi.org/10.1111/imm.13450

SARS-CoV-2 infection results in different outcomes ranging from asymptomatic infection to mild or severe disease and death. Reasons for this diversity of outcome include differences in challenge dose, age, gender, comorbidity and host genomic variati...

Relationship between Anxiety, Depression, and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Infection: Proof of Concept (2022)
Journal Article
Vedhara, K., Ayling, K., Jia, R., Fairclough, L., Morling, J. R., Ball, J. K., …Tighe, P. (2022). Relationship between Anxiety, Depression, and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Infection: Proof of Concept. Journal of Infectious Diseases, 225(12), 2137-2141. https://doi.org/10.1093/infdis/jiac006

Background: Psychological factors can influence susceptibility to viral infections. We examined whether such influences are evident in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Methods: Participants (n=102) completed mea...

Serum Levels of Proinflammatory Lipid Mediators and Specialized Proresolving Molecules Are Increased in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 and Correlate With Markers of the Adaptive Immune Response (2022)
Journal Article
Turnbull, J., Jha, R. R., Ortori, C. A., Lunt, E., Tighe, P. J., Irving, W. L., …Chapman, V. (2022). Serum Levels of Proinflammatory Lipid Mediators and Specialized Proresolving Molecules Are Increased in Patients With Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 and Correlate With Markers of the Adaptive Immune Response. Journal of Infectious Diseases, 225(12), 2142-2154. https://doi.org/10.1093/infdis/jiab632

BACKGROUND: Specialized proresolution molecules (SPMs) halt the transition to chronic pathogenic inflammation. We aimed to quantify serum levels of pro- and anti-inflammatory bioactive lipids in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-C...
