Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the RNA virus responsible for disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Although SARS-CoV-2 was reported to alter several cellular pathways, its impact on DNA integrity and mechanisms involved remain unknown. Here we show that causes damage elicits an altered response. Mechanistically, proteins ORF6 NSP13 cause degradation of response kinase CHK1 through proteasome autophagy, respectively. loss leads deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) shortage, causing impaired S-phase progression, damage, pro-inflammatory pathways activation senescence. Supplementation deoxynucleosides reduces that. Furthermore, N-protein impairs 53BP1 focal recruitment by interfering with damage-induced long non-coding RNAs, thus reducing repair. Key observations are recapitulated in SARS-CoV-2-infected mice patients COVID-19. We propose SARS-CoV-2, boosting ribonucleoside levels promote replication at expense dNTPs hijacking RNAs' biology, threatens genome activation, induction inflammation

Abstract While neuropathological examinations in patients who died from COVID-19 revealed inflammatory changes cerebral white matter, MRI frequently fails to detect abnormalities even the presence of neurological symptoms. Application multi-compartment diffusion microstructure imaging (DMI), that detects small volume shifts between compartments (intra-axonal, extra-axonal and free water/CSF) a matter model, is promising approach overcome this discrepancy.

Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases, and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) linked to severe neurological manifestations. Senescent cells contribute brain aging, but the impact of virus-induced senescence on neuropathologies unknown. Here we show that senescent accumulate in aged human organoids senolytics reduce age-related inflammation rejuvenate transcriptomic aging clocks. In postmortem brains patients with COVID-19 observed increased cell accumulation compared age-matched controls. Exposure acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) induced cellular senescence, analysis revealed unique SARS-CoV-2 inflammatory signature. Senolytic treatment infected blocked viral replication prevented distinct neuronal populations. human-ACE2-overexpressing mice, improved clinical outcomes, promoted dopaminergic neuron survival alleviated proinflammatory gene expression.

The post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), also known as long COVID, is often associated with debilitating symptoms and adverse multisystem consequences. We obtain plasma samples from 117 individuals during 6 months following their acute phase infection to comprehensively profile assess changes in cytokines, proteome, metabolome. Network analysis reveals sustained inflammatory response, platelet degranulation, cellular activation convalescence accompanied by dysregulation arginine biosynthesis, methionine metabolism, taurine tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle processes.
