Abstract Background A dysregulated immune response is emerging as a key feature of critical illness in COVID-19. Neutrophils are components early innate immunity that, if not tightly regulated, contribute to uncontrolled systemic inflammation. We sought decipher the role neutrophil phenotypes, functions, and homeostasis COVID-19 disease severity outcome. Methods By using flow cytometry, this longitudinal study compares peripheral whole-blood neutrophils from 90 ICU patients with those 22 SARS-CoV-2-negative hospitalized for severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) 38 healthy controls. also assessed correlations between these phenotypic functional indicators markers endothelial damage well severity. Results At admission, circulating showed continuous basal hyperactivation seen CAP patients, associated higher levels soluble E- P-selectin, which reflect platelet activation.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly infectious virus which responsible for the disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. It increasingly clear that recovered individuals, even those who had mild COVID-19, can suffer from persistent symptoms many months after infection, condition referred to as "long COVID", post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), syndrome, or post condition.

Abstract Although critical for host defense, innate immune cells are also pathologic drivers of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Innate dynamics during Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) ARDS, compared to ARDS from other pathogens, is unclear. Moreover, mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects dexamethasone severe COVID-19 remain elusive. Using single-cell RNA sequencing and plasma proteomics, we discovered that, bacterial was associated with expansion distinct neutrophil states characterized by interferon (IFN) prostaglandin signaling. Dexamethasone affected circulating neutrophils, altered IFN active downregulated interferon-stimulated genes activated IL-1R2 + neutrophils. expanded immunosuppressive immature neutrophils remodeled cellular interactions changing information receivers into providers. Male patients had higher proportions preferential steroid-induced expansion, potentially affecting outcomes. Our atlas (see ‘Data availability’ section) defines COVID-19-enriched molecular action develop targeted immunotherapies COVID-19.

Abstract Dysregulated immune responses against the SARS-CoV-2 virus are instrumental in severe COVID-19. However, signatures associated with immunopathology poorly understood.

Obesity, characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation of the adipose tissue, is associated with adverse coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcomes, yet underlying mechanism unknown. To explore whether severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection tissue contributes to pathogenesis, we evaluated COVID-19 autopsy cases and deeply profiled response SARS-CoV-2 in vitro. In cases, identified RNA adipocytes an inflammatory infiltrate. We two distinct cellular targets infection: a subset tissue-resident macrophages. Mature were permissive infection; although macrophages abortively infected, initiated responses within both infected bystander preadipocytes.

Early stages of deadly respiratory diseases including COVID-19 are challenging to elucidate in humans. Here, we define cellular tropism and transcriptomic effects SARS-CoV-2 virus by productively infecting healthy human lung tissue using scRNA-seq reconstruct the transcriptional program “infection pseudotime” for individual cell types. predominantly infected activated interstitial macrophages (IMs), which can accumulate thousands viral RNA molecules, taking over 60% transcriptome forming dense bodies while inducing host profibrotic (TGFB1, SPP1) inflammatory (early interferon response, CCL2/7/8/13, CXCL10, IL6/10) programs destroying architecture. Infected alveolar (AMs) showed none these extreme responses. Spike-dependent entry into AMs used ACE2 Sialoadhesin/CD169, whereas IM DC-SIGN/CD209. These results identify IMs as a prominent site takeover, focus inflammation fibrosis, suggest targeting CD209 prevent early pathology pneumonia.

At this stage in the COVID-19 pandemic, most infections are "breakthrough" that occur individuals with prior severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) exposure. To refine long-term vaccine strategies against emerging variants, we examined both innate and adaptive immunity breakthrough infections. We performed single-cell transcriptomic, proteomic, functional profiling of primary to compare immune responses from unvaccinated vaccinated during SARS-CoV-2 Delta wave. Breakthrough were characterized by a less activated transcriptomic profile monocytes natural killer cells, induction pathways limiting monocyte migratory potential cell proliferation. Furthermore, observed female-specific increase proteomic activation multiple subsets These insights suggest vaccination prevents overactivation discernible sex-specific patterns underscore harnessing vaccines mitigating pathologic resulting overactivation.
