[Progress in research of influence of gene polymorphisms on vaccine immune response].

To introduce the recent progress in the research of gene polymorphisms and differences in vaccine immune responses, this paper systematically summarizes current findings of the associations between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) polymorphisms and other key immunoregulatory gene variations with vaccine responses across different domains, including COVID-19 and influenza vaccines. Furthermore, it discusses the impact of different genotypes on antibody production, immune protection, and the risk for breakthrough infections. To address the challenges posed by genetic polymorphisms, this paper further summarizes several key strategies for vaccine optimization, including conserved epitope targeting, multivalent vaccine design, and peptide-carrier conjugation approaches. Although genomics has laid a theoretical foundation for precise vaccine design, multiple challenges still persist in current research, such as the complexity of gene-environment interactions and ethical concerns regarding data sharing and privacy protection. Future investigations should further evaluate the effects of specific gene polymorphisms, such as detailed HLA subtypes, on the variations in vaccine immune responses, and elucidate underlying mechanisms by integrating functional studies Exploring and establishing genomics and multi-omics-based precise immunization strategies will provide more effective solutions for vaccine-preventable diseases.
