Systems biological assessment of immunity to severe and mild COVID-19 infections

ABSTRACT: The recent emergence of COVID-19 presents a major global crisis. Profound knowledge gaps remain about the interaction between the virus and the immune system. Here, we used a systems biology approach to analyze immune responses in 76 COVID-19 patients and 69 age and sex- matched controls, from Hong Kong and Atlanta. Mass cytometry revealed prolonged plasmablast and effector T cell responses, reduced myeloid expression of HLA-DR and inhibition of mTOR signaling in plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) during infection. Production of pro-inflammatory cytokines plasma levels of inflammatory mediators, including EN-RAGE, TNFSF14, and Oncostatin-M, which correlated with disease severity, and increased bacterial DNA and endotoxin in plasma in and reduced HLA-DR and CD86 but enhanced EN-RAGE expression in myeloid cells in severe transient expression of IFN stimulated genes in moderate infections, consistent with transcriptomic analysis of bulk PBMCs, that correlated with transient and low levels of plasma COVID-19.

Alterations in circulating monocytes predict COVID-19 severity and include chromatin modifications still detectable six months after recovery

Project description:An early analysis of circulating monocytes may be critical for predicting COVID-19 course and its sequelae. In 131 untreated, acute COVID-19 patients at emergency room (ER) arrival, monocytes showed decreased surface molecules expression, including HLA-DR, in association to an inflammatory cytokine status and limited anti-SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell response. These alterations were mostly normalized in post-COVID-19 patients, 6 months after discharge. Acute COVID-19 monocytes transcriptome showed upregulation of anti-inflammatory, tissue repair genes such as BCL6, AREG and IL-10 and increased accessibility of chromatin. Some of these transcriptomic and epigenetic features still remained in post-COVID-19 monocytes. Importantly, a poorer expression of surface markers and low IRF1 gene transcription in circulating monocytes at ER defined a COVID-19 patients group with impaired SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell response and increased risk of requiring intensive care or dying. An early analysis of monocytes may be useful for COVID-19 patients stratification and to designing innate immunity-focused therapies.

Transcriptome of inflammatory myeloid DCs in psoriasis

Project description:Background: Previous work has identified CD11c+CD1c- dendritic cells (DCs) as the major 'inflammatory' dermal DC population in psoriasis vulgaris and CD1c+ DCs as the 'resident' cutaneous DC population. Objective: To further define molecular differences between these two myeloid dermal DC populations. Methods: Inflammatory and resident DCs were single-cell sorted from psoriasis lesional skin biopsies, and gene array expression profiling was performed. Results were confirmed with RT-PCR, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and double label immunofluorescence. Pooled human keratinocytes were cultured for functional studies. Results: TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 1 and 2, S100A12/EN-RAGE, CD32, and many other inflammatory products were selectively expressed in inflammatory DCs than in resident DCs. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence confirmed higher protein expression on CD1c- versus CD1c+ DCs. TRAIL receptor, death receptor 4 (DR4), was expressed on basal keratinocytes and blood vessels, and in vitro culture of keratinocytes with rh-TRAIL induced CCL20 leukocyte chemokine. Conclusion: CD11c+CD1c- inflammatory DCs in psoriatic lesional skin express a wide range of inflammatory molecules compared to skin resident CD1c+ DCs. Some molecules made by inflammatory DCs, including TRAIL, could have direct effects on keratinocytes or other skin cell types to promote disease pathogenesis. Shave biopsies were cultured overnight in dispase to remove the epidermis. Dermis was cultured for 36-48 hours to obtain dermal single cell suspensions. These cells were stained with HLA-DR, CD11c, BDCA-1 (DCs) and FACS-sorted into HLA-DR+11c+BDCA-1+, HLA-DR+11c+BDCA-1- populations into Trizol. RNA was extracted and processed for microarray. 2 dependent groups.

Increased soluble HLA in COVID-19 present a disease-related, diverse immunopeptidome associated with T cell immunity

Project description:HLA-presented antigenic peptides are central components of T cell-based immunity in infectious disease. Beside HLA molecules on cell surfaces, soluble HLA molecules (sHLA) are released in the blood suggested to impact cellular immune responses. We demonstrated that sHLA levels were significantly increased in COVID-19 patients and convalescent individuals compared to a control cohort and positively correlated with SARS CoV-2-directed cellular immunity. Of note, patients with severe courses of COVID-19 showed reduced sHLA levels. Mass spectrometry-based characterization of sHLA-bound antigenic peptides, the so called soluble immunopeptidome, revealed a COVID-19-associated increased diversity of HLA-presented peptides and identified a naturally presented SARS-CoV-2-derived peptide from the viral nucleoprotein in the plasma of COVID-19 patients. Interestingly, sHLA serum levels directly correlated with the diversity of the soluble immunopeptidome. Together, these findings suggest an inflammation-driven release of sHLA in COVID-19, directly influencing the diversity of the soluble immunopeptidome with implications for SARS-CoV-2-directed T cell-based immunity and disease outcome.

COVID-19 Suceptibility Florida

Project description:To reveal genetic determinants of susceptibility to COVID-19 severity in the population and further explore potential immune-related factors, we performed a genome-wide association study on 284 confirmed COVID-19 patients (cases) and 95 healthy individuals (controls). We compared cases and controls of European (EUR) ancestry and African American (AFR) ancestry separately. To further exploring the linkage between HLA and COVID-19 severity, we applied fine-mapping analysis to dissect the HLA association with mild and severe cases.

Nanostring GeoMx digital spatial profliing of myeloid cells from COVID-19 and normal lung

Project description:To determine definitively whether lung myeloid cells exhibit a pro- or anti-inflammatory signature in COVID-19 disease, we performed digital spatial profiling using the nanoString GeoMx ImmuneOncology plus COVID-19 platform on CD68+ macrophages, myeloperoxidase+ granulocytes and cytokeratin+ epithelium in normal and COVID-19 lung tissue specimens, collecting RNA expression data for each type within 6-8 regions of 5mM tissue sections. One COVID-19 lung tissue yielded minimal sequence data and was excluded from analysis. A volcano plot and heat map of differentially expressed genes within macrophages demonstrate that COVID-19 lung macrophages when compared with normal lung macrophages exhibit a largely alternatively activated, wound-healing signature characterized by expression of the alternatively active macrophage marker CD163, complement/coagulation genes (C1QA, C1QB, THBS1, C1S, C1R), IL6 signaling (STAT2, STAT1) and wound healing (COL3A1, COL6A3), but also interferon response signatures (ISG15, OAS3, IFITM2, IFI6, HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C) (Fig. 3H-J). As one of the tissues used for macrophage spatial profiling was from a patient was positive for the virus at the time of death, we compared the expression profiles of virus+ and virus- specimens and found that macrophages in virus+ tissues predominantly expressed an interferon-associated signature

High-dimensional comparison of monocytes and T cells in post-COVID and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Project description:Up to 30% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients experience persistent sequelae, including pulmonary fibrosis (PF). We examined COVID-19 survivors with impaired lung function and imaging worrisome for developing PF and found within six months, symptoms, restriction and PF improved in some (Early-Resolving COVID-PF), but persisted in others (Late-Resolving COVID-PF). To evaluate immune mechanisms associated with recovery versus persistent PF, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing and multiplex immunostaining on peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with Early- and Late-Resolving COVID-PF and compared them to age-matched controls without respiratory disease. Our analysis showed circulating monocytes were significantly reduced in Late-Resolving COVID-PF patients compared to Early-Resolving COVID-PF and non-diseased controls. Monocyte abundance correlated with pulmonary function forced vital capacity and diffusion capacity. Differential expression analysis revealed MHC-II class molecules were upregulated on the CD8 T cells of Late-Resolving COVID-PF patients but downregulated in monocytes. To determine whether these immune signatures resembled other interstitial lung diseases, we analyzed samples from Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients. IPF patients had a similar marked decrease in monocyte HLA-DR protein expression compared to Late-Resolving COVID-PF patients. Our findings indicate decreased circulating monocytes is associates with decreased lung function and uniquely distinguishes Late-Resolving COVID-PF from Early-Resolving COVID-PF, IPF, and non-diseased controls.

Effects of the circulating environment of COVID-19 on platelet and neutrophil behavior

Project description:Thromboinflammatory complications are well described sequalae of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and there is evidence of both hyperreactive platelet and inflammatory neutrophil biology that contributes to the thromoinflammatory milieu. It has been demonstrated in other thromboinflammatory diseases that the circulating environment may affect cellular behavior, but what role this environment exerts on platelets and neutrophils in COVID-19 remains unknown. We tested the hypotheses that 1) plasma from COVID-19 patients can induce a prothrombotic platelet functional phenotype, and 2) contents released from platelets (platelet releasate) from COVID-19 patients can induce a proinflammatory neutrophil phenotype. We treated platelets with COVID-19 patient and disease control plasma and found that COVID-19 patient plasma promoted auto-aggregation, thereby reducing response to further stimulation ex-vivo. Neither disease condition increased the number of platelets adhered to a collagen and thromboplastin coated parallel plate flow chamber, but both markedly reduced platelet size. We treated healthy neutrophils with COVID-19 patient and disease control platelet releasate and found that COVID-19 patient platelet releasate increased myeloperoxidase-deoxyribonucleic acid complexes and induced changes to neutrophil gene expression. Together these results suggest aspects of the soluble environment of COVID-19 stimulate circulating platelets, and that the contents released from those platelets can elicit inflammatory neutrophil behavior independent of direct cellular contact.

Transcriptome analysis of HLA-DR(+) HSPCs and HLA-DR(-) HSPCs in aplastic anemia patients

Project description:HLA-DR-lacking HSPCs [HLA-DR(-) HSPCs] were detected in aplastic anemia (AA) patients with HLA-DR15. HLA-DR(-) HSPCs may evade the attack by CD4+ T-cells recognizing the autoantigen presented by HLA-DR15. The goal of this study is to clarify the immune escape mechanisms from antigen-specific T-cells by comparing the trranscriptome profile of HLA-DR(+) HSPCs and HLA-DR(-) HSPCs.
