Although critical illness has been associated with SARS-CoV-2-induced hyperinflammation, the immune correlates of severe COVID-19 remain unclear. Here, we comprehensively analyzed peripheral blood perturbations in 42 SARS-CoV-2 infected and recovered individuals. We identified extensive induction activation multiple lineages, including T cell activation, oligoclonal plasmablast expansion, Fc trafficking receptor modulation on innate lymphocytes granulocytes, that distinguished cases from...

Rationale: Potentially hazardous CpG-containing cell-free mitochondrial DNA (cf-mtDNA) is routinely released into the circulation and associated with morbidity mortality in critically ill patients. How body avoids inappropriate innate immune activation by cf-mtDNA remains unknown. Because red blood cells (RBCs) modulate responses scavenging chemokines, we hypothesized that RBCs may attenuate CpG-induced lung inflammation through direct of DNA.Objectives: To determine mechanisms CpG-DNA...

COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus, can progress to multisystem organ failure and viral sepsis characterized respiratory failure, arrhythmias, thromboembolic complications, shock with high mortality. Autopsy preclinical evidence implicate aberrant complement activation in endothelial injury failure. Erythrocytes express receptors are capable of binding immune complexes; therefore, we investigated patients COVID-19 using erythrocytes as a tool diagnose activation. We discovered...

The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is an important marker of lung epithelial injury and may be associated with impaired alveolar fluid clearance. We hypothesized that patients primary graft dysfunction (PGD) after transplantation would have higher RAGE levels in plasma than without PGD.To test the association soluble (sRAGE) PGD a prospective, multicenter cohort study.We measured sRAGE at 6 24 hours allograft reperfusion 317 transplant recipients seven centers. outcome...

Abstract Although critical illness has been associated with SARS-CoV-2-induced hyperinflammation, the immune correlates of severe COVID-19 remain unclear. Here, we comprehensively analyzed peripheral blood perturbations in 42 SARS-CoV-2 infected and recovered individuals. We identified broad changes neutrophils, NK cells, monocytes during COVID-19, suggesting excessive mobilization innate lineages. found marked activation within T B highly oligoclonal cell populations, profound plasmablast...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome is associated with a robust inflammatory response that damages the vascular endothelium, impairing gas exchange. While restoration of microcapillaries critical to avoid mortality, therapeutic targeting this process requires greater understanding endothelial repair mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate lung endothelium possesses substantial regenerative capacity and lineage tracing reveals native source after influenza injury. Ablation chicken ovalbumin upstream...

COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus, can progress to multi-organ failure characterized respiratory insufficiency, arrhythmias, thromboembolic complications and shock. The mortality of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 is unacceptably high new strategies are urgently needed rapidly identify treat at risk for organ failure. Clinical epidemiologic studies demonstrate that vulnerability greatest after viral clearance from upper airway, which suggests dysregulation host immune...

BACKGROUND. The molecular signature of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is poorly described, and the degree to which hyperinflammation or specific tissue injury contributes outcomes unknown. Therefore, we profiled inflammation dynamics over first 7 days ARDS, associated biomarkers with mortality, persistent multiple organ dysfunction (MODS).

Novel screening techniques for early detection of lung cancer are urgently needed. Profiling circulating tumor cell-free DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a promising tool biopsy-free genotyping. However, both the scarcity and short half-life ctDNA substantially limit sensitivity clinical utility methodologies. Our discovery that red blood cells (RBCs) sequester mitochondrial opens new avenue detecting nucleic acids, RBCs represent an unrecognized reservoir acid. Here, we show acquire following...

BACKGROUND: Recent evidence suggests that storage‐induced alterations of the red blood cell (RBC) are associated with adverse consequences in susceptible hosts. As RBCs have been shown to form advanced glycation end products (AGEs) after increased oxidative stress and under pathologic conditions, we examined whether stored undergo modification specific AGE N ‐(carboxymethyl)lysine ( ε ‐CML) during standard banking conditions. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Purified, fresh from volunteers were...
