Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Despite these potential caveats, our findings were validated by challenge of animals with the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.351/beta variant, wherein mRNA-1273 vaccination also prevented infection-induced lung inflammation. There are some limitations of this study to consider. First, the relatively transient and self-limiting nature of SARS-CoV-2 infection and infection-elicited inflammation in macaques makes it difficult to place these observations into context of human disease. Many of the pathways, cell types, transcriptional signatures, and correlates of protection identified in our analysis have also been defined in humans with acute COVID-19, but the magnitude and timing of the events may not be homologous. Second, the route of virus administration has been shown to influence infection and inflammation in other models of SARS-CoV-2 challenge (35), so that the IN/IT route of infection used in this study may result in subtly different features of infection and inflammation than aerosol-mediated infection. In conclusion, this study defines the lower respiratory tract cellular and transcriptional signature associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in macaques using two distinct viral variants, and identifies conserved signatures of vaccine-elicited protection from infection-attendant inflammation. These data emphasize the contribution of inflammatory/migratory DCs and macrophages to lower respiratory tract inflammation following SARS-CoV-2 infection, and define a critical relationship between ...
