COVID-19 can be severe in pregnant women, and have adverse consequences for the subsequent infant. We profiled the post-infectious immune responses in maternal and child blood as well as breast milk in terms of antibody and cytokine expression and performed histopathological studies on placentae obtained from mothers convalescent from antenatal COVID-19. Seventeen mother-child dyads (8 cases of antenatal COVID-19 and 9 healthy unrelated controls; 34 individuals in total) were recruited to the Gestational Immunity For Transfer (GIFT) study. Maternal and infant blood, and breast milk samples were collected over the first year of life. All samples were analyzed for IgG and IgA against whole SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, the spike receptor-binding domain (RBD), and previously reported immunodominant epitopes, as well as cytokine levels. The placentae were examined microscopically. The study is registered at

GIFT 队列中 2019 年产前冠状病毒病的免疫和病理生理学特征:新加坡病例对照研究
COVID-19 对孕妇来说可能很严重,并对随后的婴儿产生不良后果。我们从抗体和细胞因子表达方面分析了母婴血液以及母乳中的感染后免疫反应,并对从产前 COVID-19 恢复期的母亲获得的胎盘进行了组织病理学研究。妊娠免疫转移 (GIFT) 研究招募了 17 名母子二人组(8 例产前 COVID-19 病例和 9 例健康的无关对照;总共 34 人)。在出生第一年收集母亲和婴儿的血液和母乳样本。所有样本均针对整个 SARS-CoV-2 刺突蛋白、刺突受体结合域 (RBD) 和之前报道的免疫显性表位以及细胞因子水平进行了 IgG 和 IgA 分析。用显微镜检查胎盘。该研究注册于
