Comprehensive transcriptomic analysis of COVID-19 blood, lung, and airway.

ABSTRACT: SARS-CoV2 is a previously uncharacterized coronavirus and causative agent of the COVID-19 pandemic. The host response to SARS-CoV2 has not yet been fully delineated, hampering a precise approach to therapy. To address this, we carried out a comprehensive analysis of gene expression data from the blood, lung, and airway of COVID-19 patients. Our results indicate that COVID-19 pathogenesis is driven by populations of myeloid-lineage cells with highly inflammatory but distinct transcriptional signatures in each compartment. The relative absence of cytotoxic cells in the lung suggests a model in which delayed clearance of the virus may permit exaggerated myeloid cell activation that contributes to disease pathogenesis by the production of inflammatory mediators. The gene expression profiles also identify potential therapeutic targets that could be modified with available drugs. The data suggest that transcriptomic profiling can provide an understanding of the pathogenesis of COVID-19 in individual patients.

COVID-19 Transcriptomic Atlas: A Comprehensive Analysis of COVID-19 Related Transcriptomics Datasets.

Project description:Background: To develop anti-viral drugs and vaccines, it is crucial to understand the molecular basis and pathology of COVID-19. An increase in research output is required to generate data and results at a faster rate, therefore bioinformatics plays a crucial role in COVID-19 research. There is an abundance of transcriptomic data from studies carried out on COVID-19, however, their use is limited by the confounding factors pertaining to each study. The reanalysis of all these datasets in a unified approach should help in understanding the molecular basis of COVID-19. This should allow for the identification of COVID-19 biomarkers expressed in patients and the presence of markers specific to disease severity and condition. Aim: In this study, we aim to use the multiple publicly available transcriptomic datasets retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to identify consistently differential expressed genes in different tissues and clinical settings. Materials and Methods: A list of datasets was generated from NCBI's GEO using the GEOmetadb package through R software. Search keywords included SARS-COV-2 and COVID-19. Datasets in human tissues containing more than ten samples were selected for this study. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in each dataset were identified. Then the common DEGs between different datasets, conditions, tissues and clinical settings were shortlisted. Results: Using a unified approach, we were able to identify common DEGs based on the disease conditions, samples source and clinical settings. For each indication, a different set of genes have been identified, revealing that a multitude of factors play a role in the level of gene expression. Conclusion: Unified reanalysis of publically available transcriptomic data showed promising potential in identifying core targets that can explain the molecular pathology and be used as biomarkers for COVID-19.

COVID-19 whole blood transcriptomic analysis

Project description:In a study of 207 SARS-CoV2-infected individuals with a range of severities followed over 12 weeks from symptom onset, we demonstrate that an early robust bystander CD8 T cell immune response, without systemic inflammation, is characteristic of asymptomatic or mild disease. Those presenting to hospital had delayed bystander responses and systemic inflammation already evident at around symptom onset. Such early evidence of inflammation suggests immunopathology may be inevitable in some individuals, or that preventative intervention might be needed before symptom onset. Viral load does not correlate with the development of this pathological response, but does with its subsequent severity. Immune recovery is complex, with profound persistent cellular abnormalities correlating with a change in the nature of the inflammatory response, where signatures characteristic of increased oxidative phosphorylation and reactive-oxygen species-associated inflammation replace those driven by TNF and IL-6. These late immunometabolic inflammatory changes and unresolved immune defects may have clinical implications.

Comprehensive transcriptomic analysis identifies novel regulators of lung adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Lung adenocarcinoma (LA) is a subtype of lung cancer that accounts for about 40% of all lung cancers. Analysis of molecular mechanisms controlling this cancer can help scientists to detect, control and treat LA. Here, a microarray dataset (GSE118370) containing six normal lung (NL) and six LA samples was screened using GEO2R to find differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Then, DAVID, KEGG and ChEA were used to analyze DEGs-related gene ontology, pathways and transcription factors (TFs), respectively. The Protein-protein interaction network for DEGs and TFs was constructed by STRING and Cytoscape. To find microRNAs and metabolites associated with DEGs, miRTarBase and HMDB were used, respectively. It was found that 350 genes were upregulated and 608 genes were downregulated in LA. The upregulated genes or LA-related gens were enriched in biological process and pathways such as extracellular matrix disassembly and p53 signaling pathway, whereas the downregulated genes or NL-related genes were enriched in cell adhesion and cell-surface receptor signaling pathway. ESR1, KIF18B, BIRC5, CHEK1, CCNB1 and AURKA were determined as hub genes for LA. FOXA1 and TFAP2A had the highest number of connectivity in LA-related TFs. hsa-miR-192-5p and hsa-miR-215-5p could target the highest number of LA-related genes. Metabolite analysis showed that Estrone and NADPH were among the top ten metabolites associated with LA-related genes. Taken together, LA-related genes, especially the hub genes, TFs, and metabolites might be used as novel markers for LA, as well as for diagnosis and guiding therapeutic strategies of LA.

Spatial transcriptomic characterization of the lung parenchyma during COVID-19 pneumonitis

Project description:Severe lung damage in COVID-19 is known to involve complex interactions between diverse populations of immune and stromal cells. The pneumonitis manifesting in COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome results in spatially heterogenous manifestations of injury, such as infiltrates, loss of epithelial integrity and fibrosis. In this study, we applied a spatial transcriptomics approach to better delineate the cells, pathways and genes responsible for promoting and perpetuating severe tissue pathology in COVID-19 pneumonitis. Guided by tissue histology and multiplex immunofluorescence, we performed a targeted sampling of dozens of regions representing a spectrum of diffuse alveolar damage (mild to severe) from the post-mortem lung of three COVID-19 patients. These microscopic sites of injury had varying known compositions of CD3+ lymphocytes, CD68+ myeloid cells and panCK+ epithelial cells. DCC files are the processed sequencing files using the NanoString DND pipeline. The "Initial Dataset.xlsx" is represents raw gene counts for each probe replicate (n=47). "Post Biological Probe QC.xlsx" removes a sample (n=46) with failed sequencing (no rawReads) and conducts biological probe quality controls to collapse probe replicates into a single count per target gene using the GeoMx Analysis suite (version 2.1.0.102). "qn.exprs.tsv" is the matrix of quantile normalised gene expression by segment (n=46) and "qn.exprs.corrected.tsv" is the matrix of quantile normalised and batch corrected matrix of gene expression by segment (n=46). Rendered multichannel immunofluorescent microscopy png images corresponding to each area of interest (AOI with the acquistion borders outlined in white) are included. Further images can be made available upon request.

Comprehensive Analysis of the Systemic Transcriptomic Alternations and Inflammatory Response during the Occurrence and Progress of COVID-19.

Project description:The pandemic of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has posed huge threats to healthcare systems and the global economy. However, the host response towards COVID-19 on the molecular and cellular levels still lacks full understanding and effective therapies are in urgent need. Here, we integrate three datasets, GSE152641, GSE161777, and GSE157103. Compared to healthy people, 314 differentially expressed genes were identified, which were mostly involved in neutrophil degranulation and cell division. The protein-protein network was established and two significant subsets were filtered by MCODE: ssGSEA and CIBERSORT, which comprehensively revealed the alternation of immune cell abundance. Weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) as well as GO and KEGG analyses unveiled the role of neutrophils and T cells during the progress of the disease. Based on the hospital-free days after 45 days of follow-up and statistical methods such as nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), submap, and linear correlation analysis, 31 genes were regarded as the signature of the peripheral blood of COVID-19. Various immune cells were identified to be related to the prognosis of the patients. Drugs were predicted for the genes in the signature by DGIdb. Overall, our study comprehensively revealed the relationship between the inflammatory response and the disease course, which provided strategies for the treatment of COVID-19.

Comprehensive Meta-Analysis of COVID-19 Global Metabolomics Datasets.

Project description:The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has spread across the world since 2019, causing a global pandemic. The pathogenesis of the viral infection and the associated clinical presentations depend primarily on host factors such as age and immunity, rather than the viral load or its genetic variations. A growing number of omics studies have been conducted to characterize the host immune and metabolic responses underlying the disease progression. Meta-analyses of these datasets have great potential to identify robust molecular signatures to inform clinical care and to facilitate therapeutics development. In this study, we performed a comprehensive meta-analysis of publicly available global metabolomics datasets obtained from three countries (United States, China and Brazil). To overcome high heterogeneity inherent in these datasets, we have (a) implemented a computational pipeline to perform consistent raw spectra processing; (b) conducted meta-analyses at pathway levels instead of individual feature levels; and (c) performed visual data mining on consistent patterns of change between disease severities for individual studies. Our analyses have yielded several key metabolic signatures characterizing disease progression and clinical outcomes. Their biological interpretations were discussed within the context of the current literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive meta-analysis of global metabolomics datasets of COVID-19.

Columbia University/NYP COVID-19 Lung Atlas

Project description:We profiled 116,314 cells using snRNA-seq of 20 frozen lungs obtained from 19 COVID-19 decedents and seven control patients with short postmortem interval (PMI) autopsies. The COVID-19 cohort comprises seven female and 12 male decedents, including 13 patients of Hispanic ethnicity, with an age range from 58 to >89 years who had acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection and succumbed to the disease. The average time from symptom onset to death was 27.5 days (range, 4–63 days). After rapid autopsy with a median PMI of 4 hours (range 2–9 hours) collected tissues were either flash-frozen or frozen following OCT (optimal cutting temperature) embedment and subjected to snRNA-seq using a droplet-based platform (10x Genomics). All included patients had underlying hypertensive disorder and frequently one or more additional co-morbidities associated with increased risk for severe COVID-19.
