Platelet activation in critically ill COVID-19 patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Microvascular, arterial and venous thrombotic events have been largely described during severe coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). However, mechanisms underlying hemostasis dysregulation remain unclear.

Methods

We explored two independent cross-sectional cohorts to identify soluble markers and gene-expression signatures that discriminated COVID-19 severity and outcomes.

Results

We found that elevated soluble (s)P-selectin at admission was associated with disease severity. Elevated sP-selectin was predictive of intubation and death (ROC AUC = 0.67, p = 0.028 and AUC = 0.74, p = 0.0047, respectively). An optimal cutoff value was predictive of intubation with 66% negative predictive value (NPV) and 61% positive predictive value (PPV), and of death with 90% NPV and 55% PPV. An unbiased gene set enrichment analysis revealed that critically ill patients had increased expression of genes related to platelet activation. Hierarchical clustering identified ITG2AB, GP1BB, PPBP and SELPLG to be upregulated in a grade-dependent manner. ROC curve analysis for the prediction of intubation was significant for SELPLG and PPBP (AUC = 0.8, p = 0.046 for both). An optimal cutoff value for PBPP was predictive of intubation with 100% NPV and 45% PPV, and for SELPLG with 100% NPV and 50% PPV.

Conclusion

We provide evidence that platelets contribute to COVID-19 severity. Plasma sP-selectin level was associated with severity and in-hospital mortality. Transcriptional analysis identified PPBP/CXCL7 and SELPLG as biomarkers for intubation. These findings provide additional evidence for platelet activation in driving critical COVID-19. Specific studies evaluating the performance of these biomarkers are required.

Transcriptomic clustering of critically-ill COVID-19 patients [Day 4 RNAseq]

Project description:Infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 may cause a severe disease, termed COVID-19, with significant mortality. Host responses to this infection, mainly in terms of systemic inflammation, have emerged as key pathogenetic mechanisms, and their modulation is the only therapeutic strategy that has shown a mortality benefit. Herein, we used peripheral blood transcriptomes of critically-ill COVID-19 patients obtained at admission in an Intensive Care Unit, to identify two clusters that, in spite of no major clinical differences, have different gene expression profiles that reveal different underlying pathogenetic mechanisms and ultimately have different ICU outcome. A transcriptomic signature was used to identify these clusters in an external validation cohort, yielding a similar result. These results illustrate the potential of transcriptomic profiles to identify patient endotypes and point to relevant pathogenetic mechanisms in COVID-19.

Glycosylation signature of plasma IgA of critically ill COVID-19 patients

Project description:Total plasma IgA glycosylation was compared between healthy volunteers and volunteers suffering fromo infections with either the influenza A virus or the severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2. Data from functional assays of the same plasma samples, such as neutrophil extracellular trap formation is also available.

Identification of immune correlates of fatal outcomes in critically ill COVID-19 patients

Project description:Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals a shift from focused IFN alpha-driven signals in COVID-19 ICU patients who survive to broad pro-inflammatory responses in fatal COVID-19 – a feature not observed in severe influenza. We conclude that fatal COVID-19 infection is driven by uncoordinated inflammatory responses that drive a hierarchy of T cell activation, elements of which can serve as prognostic indicators and potential targets for immune intervention.

Peripheral blood gene expression according to IFIH1 rs1990760 variants in critically-ill COVID-19 patients

Project description:Background: Outcomes in patients with severe SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) are conditioned by viral control and regulation of inflammation. Variants in IFIH1, a gene coding the cytoplasmatic RNA sensor MDA5, regulate the response to viral infections. Methods: Patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) with documented COVID-19 were prospectively included and IFIH1 rs1990760 genotypes determined. Peripheral blood gene expression, cell populations and immune mediators were measured during the first day after ICU admission before steroid therapy. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from healthy volunteers were exposed ex-vivo to an MDA5 agonist and dexamethasone, and changes in gene expression assessed. ICU discharge and hospital death were modelled using rs1990760 variants and dexamethasone therapy as factors. Findings: 237 patients were studied. Patients with the IFIH1 rs1990760 TT variant showed a decrease in expression of inflammation-related pathways, an anti-inflammatory cell profile and a decrease in pro-inflammatory mediators. Cells with TT variant exposed to an MDA5 agonist ex-vivo showed an increase in FOXO3 and IL6 when dexamethasone was added. All patients with the TT variant not treated with steroids (n=14) survived their ICU stay (HR 2.49 95% confidence interval 1.29 – 4.79). Dexamethasone therapy in this subgroup (N=50) delayed ICU discharge and increased hospital mortality (HR 2.19, 95% confidence interval 1.01 – 4.87) and serum IL-6 concentrations. Interpretation: COVID-19 ICU patients with the IFIH1 rs1990760 TT variant show an ameliorated inflammatory response that results in better outcomes than CC/CT variants. Dexamethasone can reverse this anti-inflammatory phenotype, worsening the outcome. Funding: Instituto de Salud Carlos III.

Lymphocytes, Mean Platelet Volume, and Albumin in Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients with Venous Thromboembolism.

Project description:As one of the frequent complications leading to poor prognosis in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, a better understanding of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in COVID-19 patients is needed. We conducted a single-center, retrospective study on 96 COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) from April to June 2022, in Shanghai Renji Hospital. Records of these COVID-19 patients upon admission were reviewed for demographic information, co-morbidities, vaccinations, treatment, and laboratory tests. VTE occurred in 11 (11.5%) cases among 96 COVID-19 patients despite the standard thromboprophylaxis since ICU admission. In COVID-VTE patients, a significant increase in B cells and a decrease in Ts cells were observed and a strong negative correlation (r = -0.9524, P = .0003) was found between these two populations. In COVID-19 patients with VTE, increased MPV and decreased albumin levels were seen in addition to the common VTE indicators of D-dimer abnormalities. The altered lymphocyte composition in COVID-VTE patients is noteworthy. In addition to D-dimer, MPV and albumin levels might be novel indicators for the risk of VTE in COVID-19 patients.

Neutrophil and monocyte dysfunctional effector response towards bacterial challenge in critically ill COVID-19 patients

Project description:In this study, we aim to evaluate the relation between COVID-19 and bacterial secondary superinfections. We assessed the functional responses of neutrophils and monocytes isolated from acute and recovery COVID-19 patients upon bacterial infection using Flow-cytometry and proteomics based assays. Both neutrophils and monocytes showed impared intracellular microbicidal capacity along with a decreased functional response. Determination of plasma cytokines levels showed a significant association of certain cytokines towards secondary bacterial infection.
