    Serum <t>IgG</t> and nAb responses to SARS-CoV-2 ancestral and Omicron variants in KTRs in comparison to HCs. Total SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S)-specific IgG ( A ) and neutralizing antibody (nAb) ( B ) against the ancestral strain (red), Omicron BA.1 (green), and Omicron BA.5 (blue) variants measured in KTRs ( n = 81) or HCs ( n = 11) who were previously vaccinated with the initial two-dose mRNA vaccine series prior to dose 3 (pre-D3), 30 days post-dose 3 (30 days post-D3), and 90 days post-dose 3 (90 days post-D3). Total anti-S IgG ( C ) and nAb levels ( D ) at 30 days post-D3 and nAb levels at 90 days post-D3 ( E ) were compared between the ancestral strain, Omicron BA.1, and Omicron BA.5 variants. Total anti-S IgG ( F ) and nAb ( G ) levels against ancestral strain, Omicron BA.1, and Omicron BA.5 variants were compared between KTR and HCs at 30 days post-D3. Dotted lines indicate the limit of detection (LOD), which is −1.52 for the anti-S IgG ELISA assay ( A, C, F ) and 0.17 for the nAb assay ( B, D, E, G ). Open circles represent non-responders with negative serological responses that fall below the LOD value. Solid triangles represent patients with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection during the course of the study. The mean ± 95% CI are shown in each panel. Significance is tested using one-way repeated measures ANOVA ( A–E ), and unpaired t-tests ( F, G ). * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, and **** P < 0.0001. Fold changes (X) are labeled below the significance lines. The number of positive samples out of the total number of samples tested is indicated in parentheses.

    Serum IgG subclass profile to SARS-CoV-2 ancestral strain in KTRs. SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S)-specific IgG subclasses (IgG1-4): IgG1 (yellow), IgG2 (blue), IgG3 (green), and IgG4 (purple) against ancestral strain were measured in KTRs ( n = 81) prior to dose 3 (pre-D3), 30 days post-dose 3 (30 days post-D3), and 90 days post-dose 3 (90 days post-D3) ( A ). Anti-S IgG subclasses antibody levels against SARS-CoV-2 ancestral strain were compared at 30 days post-D3 ( B ) and 90 days post-D3 ( C ) in KTRs with anti-S total IgG (red) as a reference on the left of both panels. A summary panel of anti-S IgG subclass-specific antibody levels against ancestral strain is shown and connected by lines to show the changes of serological responses in IgG subclasses from pre-D3, 30 days post-D3, to 90 days post-D3 ( D ). Comparison of anti-S IgG subclass-specific antibody levels against ancestral strain was made between KTRs and healthy controls (HCs) ( n = 11) at 30 days post-D3 ( E ). Dotted lines indicate the limit of detection (LOD), which is −3.00 for the subclass-specific IgG ELISA assay. Open circles represent non-responders with negative serological responses that fall below the LOD value. olid triangles represent patients with a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection during the course of the study. The mean ± 95% CI are shown in each panel.

    Correlation analyses of antibody concentrations between total IgG vs. IgG1, IgG3, IgA, and IgM. Measured antibody concentrations in EU/mL units were log transformed (log10) and plotted. Pearson r and p values are shown (N = 95). Measured antibody concentrations in EU/mL units were log transformed (log10) and plotted. Pearson r and p values are shown (N = 95). Pearson correlational analyses between total IgG and the respective isotype antibody level (IgG, IgG3, IgA, or IgM) were plotted ( A – D ). The correlations were statistically significant between total IgG and IgG1, IgG3, or IgA, but were not significant between total IgG and IgM.

    Correlation analyses of antibody concentrations between different antibody types. Measured antibody concentrations in EU/mL units were log transformed (log10) and plotted. Pearson r and p values are shown (N = 95). Pearson correlational analyses between IgG1 and IgG3, IgA, or IgM are plotted ( A – F ). Also, correlational analyses between IgG3 and IgA or IgM and between IgA and IgM are plotted. The correlations were statistically significant between IgG1 and IgG3 or IgA, and between IgG3 and IgA. Between IgG1 and IgM, IgG3 and IgM, and IgA and IgM were not significantly different.
