The PPV23 immunizes healthy elderly and other high-risk populations against pneumococcal disease. Immune mechanisms whereby these populations differently mount antibody(Ab) and cellular responses to PPV23 vaccination remain unknown. Here, healthy elderly, those elderly with prior tuberculosis-cured history (TB-cured), and HIV-infected humans were vaccinated with PPV23, and assessed for opsonophagocytic Ab responses and potential cellular mechanisms. PPV23 vaccination elicited hierarchical responses of opsonophagocytic Ab. PPV23-elicited Ab titers were highest in healthy elderly, significantly lower in TB-cured elderly and lowest in HIV-infected subjects. Mechanistically, high PPV23-elicited Ab titers in healthy elderly were associated with increases in CD19 + CD69+ cells and CD19 + CD138 + plasma cells. Surprisingly, TB-cured elderly failed to show PPV23-induced increases in these cells. While HIV-infected subjects showed a depressed CD19 + CD69+ cellular response, PPV23 vaccination uncovered HIV-related over-reactive increases in CD19 + CD138 + cells. For the first time, we demonstrate that PPV23-elicted opsonophagocytic Ab titers correlate with different cellular responses in healthy, TB-cured and HIV statuses.
