ScRNA-seq of peripheral blood from West Nile Virus-infected patients

ABSTRACT: We profile the peripheral blood of patients infected with West Nile Virus with divergent disease-trajectories (West Nile Encephalitis, West Nile Fever, and asymptomatic) during relatively acute infection and at a convalescent timepoint (~90-days later) using single-cell RNA sequencing in an effort to uncover determinants of disease progression and flesh out the landscape of infection. In the blood of the infected patients, stratified cell-states involved in acute viral infection resolve into more homogenous states at the follow-up blood draws, A dramatic shared transcriptional shift between the primary blood-draws during acute infection and the 90-day follow-ups in all observed compartments allows us to highlight multiple cell-type and cell-state-specific patterns of gene expression.
