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.

Project description:Dexamethasone is the standard of care for critically ill patients with COVID-19, but its immunological effects in this setting and the mechanisms by which it decreases mortality are not understood. We performed bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing of the lower respiratory tract and blood, and plasma cytokine profiling to study the effect of dexamethasone on systemic and pulmonary immune cells. We find signatures of decreased viral injury, antigen presentation, and T cell recruitment in patients treated with dexamethasone. We identify compartment- and cell- specific differences in the effect of dexamethasone in patients with severe COVID that are reproducible in publicly available datasets. Our results highlight the importance of studying compartmentalized inflammation in critically ill patients.

Project description:The adult data set. The pathogenesis of multi-organ dysfunction associated with severe acute SARS-CoV-2 infection remains poorly understood. Endothelial damage and microvascular thrombosis have been identified as drivers of COVID-19 severity, yet the mechanisms underlying these processes remain elusive. A multiomics approach identified alterations in analytes associated with fluid shear stress-responsive pathways in critically ill COVID-19 adults as compared to non-COVID critically ill adults.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate cell physiology by altering protein expression, but the biology of platelet miRNAs is largely unexplored. We tested whether platelet miRNA levels were associated with platelet reactivity by genome-wide profiling using platelet RNA from 19 healthy subjects. We found that human platelets express 284 miRNAs. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of miRNA profiles resulted in 2 groups of subjects that appeared to cluster by platelet aggregation phenotypes. Seventy-four miRNAs were differentially expressed (DE) between subjects grouped according to platelet aggregation to epinephrine, a subset of which predicted the platelet reactivity response. Using whole genome mRNA expression data on these same subjects, we computationally generated a high-priority list of miRNA-mRNA pairs in which the DE platelet miRNAs had binding sites in 3'UTRs of DE mRNAs, and the levels were negatively correlated. Three miRNA-mRNA pairs (miR-200b:PRKAR2B, miR-495:KLHL5 and miR-107:CLOCK) were selected from this list and all 3 miRNAs knocked down protein expression from the target mRNA. Reduced activation from platelets lacking PRKAR2B supported these findings. In summary, (1) platelet miRNAs are able to repress expression of platelet proteins, (2) miRNA profiles are associated with and may predict platelet reactivity, and (3) bioinformatic approaches can successfully identify functional miRNAs in platelets. Total RNA from the platelets of 19 donors was harvested and labeled with Hy3. Reference RNA (a pool of all samples) was labeled with Hy5. This submission represents the miRNA expression component of the study.

Project description:To explore the diverse platelet microRNA (miRNA) expression between high platelet reactivity (HPR) and low platelet reactivity (LPR) patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), we enrolled a cohort of ACS patients and performed miRNA expression profiling of platelets from four HPR and four LPR patients using human miRNA microarray system. VerifyNow P2Y12 assay was applied to indentify HPR and LPR. Venous blood was drawn from the patients and was centrifuged to prepare platelets. Among the candidate differentially expressed miRNAs, miR-15b expression was further confirmed to be lower in platelets of 22 HPR patients than 17 LPR by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). We enrolled a consecutive cohort of 290 ACS patients and assessed the platelet reactivity using VerifyNow P2Y12 assay. In this study, HPR was defined as M-bM-^IM-%300 platelet reactivity unit (PRU) while LPR <170 PRU. miRNA microarray analysis was performed in platelets of four HPR and four LPR patients with ACS.

Project description:To identify the miRNA expressing profiles of Platelet microparticlesï¼PMPs, we have employed the Agilent Human miRNA 8Ã60K (Design ID:046064) microarray. Platelet microparticles. The platelets were derived from citrated blood of healthy human donors under an Institutional Review Board-approved protocol. Platelets were isolated after centrifugation of blood (1200r for 30 min at 21â), then the supernatant (platelet-rich plasma) was centrifuged at 2000r for 30 min at 21â, and the pellet containing platelets was resuspended in RPMI-1640 medium (HyClone, Logan, UT). Platelets were counted (Clinical Laboratory, Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital, Shanghai) and adjusted to a density of 150 à 106 cells/mL before supplement with 1.5% ACD(sigma ) and stimulated with thrombin (1.0 u/mL; Takeda Austria) for 1 h. PMPs were in the supernatant after centrifugation at 4000r for 10 min at 4â,then the supernatants were centrifuged at 50,000 à g for 60 min at 4 °C. The pellets containing MPs were resuspended in RPMI-1640 medium and quantified by BCA method. The gene expressions of three independent paired PMPs from platelets stimulated by thrombin or apoptosis.

Project description:Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been obtained by centrifuging whole blood at 160 g for 15 min at room temperature. Platelets have been activated with 2 different physiologic agonists, namely collagen (60ug/mL) or Thrombin Receptor Activating Peptide (TRAP 25uM) under continuous stirring. An aliquot of platelets has been obtained at 120 minutes following collagen and TRAP and then processed to determine mRNA expression profiles. Time 0, indicating samples before any agonist treatment, was used as baseline. Total RNA was extracted using the mirVana PARIS kit (LifeTechnologies), according to manufacturers instruction. Indexed libraries were prepared using 500 ng of total RNA as starting material and sequenced on HiSeq 1500 (Illumina, USA) at a concentration of 8pM for 2x100 plus 7 additional cycles for indexes sequencing. Standard workflow for quality control through RTA and bcl2fastq conversion tool was applied.
