Single Nuclei RNA Sequencing Analysis of Cardiac Microthrombi in Fatal Covid-19

ABSTRACT: Cardiac microthrombi have been variably identified at autopsy of Covid-19 decedents. Little is known about the morphologic and molecular changes associated with cardiac microthrombi and whether predictive biomarkers exist. We sought to determine the prevalence, pathogenesis, and biomarker risk factors of Covid-19-associated cardiac microthrombi. In addition to histology and immunohistochemical analyses, we investigated right verticles from 8 Covid-19 decedents via single nuclei RNA sequencing for cell-type specific transcriptional differences between hearts with and without microthrombi, as well as between Covid-19 decedents and publicly available non-Covid-19 donor controls.

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.

Elevated Myl9 reflects the Myl9-containing microthrombi in SARS-CoV-2-induced exudative vasculitis and predicts COVID-19 severity

Project description:The mortality of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is strongly correlated with pulmonary vascular pathology accompanied by SARS-CoV-2 infection-triggered immune dysregulation and aberrant activation of platelets. We combined histological analyses using field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses of the lungs from autopsy samples and single-cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to investigate the pathogenesis of vasculitis and immunothrombosis in COVID-19. We found that SARS-CoV-2 accumulated in the pulmonary vessels, causing exudative vasculitis accompanied by the emergence of thrombospondin-1 (THBS-1)-expressing non-canonical monocytes and the formation of Myosin light chain 9 (Myl9)-containing microthrombi in the lung of COVID-19 patients with fatal disease. The amount of plasma Myl9 in COVID-19 was correlated with the clinical severity and measuring plasma Myl9 together with other markers allowed us to predict the severity of the disease more accurately. This study provides detailed insight into the pathogenesis of vasculitis and immunothrombosis, which may lead to optimal medical treatment for COVID-19.

Transcriptomic profiling of cardiac tissues from SARS-CoV-2 patients identifies DNA damage

Project description:In this study, we investigated the landscape of cardiac tissues collected at rapid autopsy from 7 SARS-CoV-2, 2 pH1N1, and 6 control patients using targeted spatial transcriptomics approaches. The main outcomes for the study were to profile rapid autopsy samples collected from the COVID-19, pH1N1 and normal, non-viral deaths to determine transcriptional changes between the different cohorts. Although SARS-CoV-2 was not detected in cardiac tissue, host transcriptomics showed upregulation of genes associated with DNA damage and repair, heat shock, and M1-like macrophage infiltration in the cardiac tissues of COVID-19 patients. The DNA damage present in the SARS-CoV-2 patient samples, were further confirmed by g-H2Ax immunohistochemistry. In comparison, pH1N1 showed upregulation of Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), in particular interferon and complement pathways, when compared with COVID-19 patients.

SARS-CoV2 infection of iPSC-derived cardiac cells predicts novel cytopathic features in COVID-19 patients

Project description:Mounting clinical evidence indicates severe pathological consequences from COVID-19 in the heart. Here we examine cardiac susceptibility and response to SARS-CoV-2 using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. Of these cell types, SARS-CoV-2 can only productively infect cardiomyocytes, and does so via an endolysosomal mechanism. Transcriptomic profiling of infected cells revealed changes in protein homeostasis and cardiomyocyte contractility, and activation of innate immune response pathways. In addition, we observed a striking pattern of myofibrillar fragmentation, with specific cleavage at the M-line. Numerous cardiomyocytes also lacked nuclear DNA in tissue culture experiments and COVID-19 autopsy specimens. These novel cardiac pathologies induced by SARS-CoV-2 strongly motivate the development of targeted cardioprotective strategies to prevent acute and long-term heart failure in COVID-19 patients.

Vascular Damage, Thromboinflammation, Plasmablast Activation, T-Cell Dysregulation and Pathological Histiocytic Response in Pulmonary Draining Lymph Nodes of COVID-19

Project description:This study aims to characterize pathophysiological changes in lethal COVID-19 lymph nodes. 22 lethal COVID-19 cases and 28 controls were enrolled in this study. Pulmonary draining lymph nodes (mediastinal, tracheal, peribronchial) were collected at autopsy. Control lymph nodes were selected from a range of histomorphological sequelae [unremarkable histology, infectious mononucleosis, follicular hyperplasia, non-SARS related HLH, extrafollicular plasmablast activation, non-SARS related diffuse alveolar damage (DAD), pneumonia]. Gene expression profiling was performed using the HTG EdgeSeq Immune Response Panel. Characteristic patterns of a dysregulated immune response were detected: 1. An accumulation of extrafollicular plasmablasts with a relative paucity or depletion of germinal centers. 2. Evidence of T-cell dysregulation demonstrated by immunohistochemical paucity of FOXP3+, T-Bet+ and LEF1+ positive T-cells and a downregulation of key genes responsible for T-cell crosstalk, maturation and migration as well as a reactivation of herpes viruses in 6/21 COVID-19 lymph nodes (EBV, HSV). 3. Macrophage activation by a proinflammatory, CD163+ phenotype and increased incidence of hemophagocytic activity. 4. Microvascular dysfunction, evidenced by an upregulation of hemostatic (CD36, PROCR, VWF) and proangiogenic (FLT1, TEK) genes and an increase of fibrin microthrombi and CD105+ microvessels. Taken together, these findings imply widespread dysregulation of both innate and adoptive pathways with concordant microvascular dysfunction in severe COVID-19.

hPSC-derived cells to model Macrophage-mediated inflammation in COVID19 Hearts

Project description:We systematically compared autopsy samples from non-COVID-19 donors and COVID-19 patients using RNA-seq and immunohistochemistry. We observed strikingly increased expression levels of CCL2 as well as macrophage infiltration in heart tissues of COVID-19 patients. We generated an immuno-cardiac co-culture platform containing human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs) and macrophages. We found that macrophages induce increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis in CMs by secreting IL-6 and TNF-α after SARS-CoV-2 exposure. Using this immuno-cardiac co-culture platform, we performed a high content screen and identified ranolazine and tofacitinib as compounds that protect CMs from macrophage-induced cardiotoxicity. We established an immuno-host co-culture system to study macrophage-induced host cell damage following SARS-CoV-2 infection, and identified FDA-approved drug candidates that alleviate the macrophage-mediated hyper-inflammation and cellular injury.
