Distinct systemic and mucosal immune responses to SARS-CoV-2

Abstract: Coordinated local mucosal and systemic immune responses following SARS-CoV-2 infection protect against COVID-19 pathologies or fail leading to severe clinical outcomes. To understand this process, we performed an integrated analysis of SARS-CoV-2 spike-specific antibodies, cytokines, viral load and 16S bacterial communities in paired nasopharyngeal swabs and plasma samples from a cohort of clinically distinct COVID-19 patients during acute infection. Plasma viral load was associated with systemic inflammatory … Show more

“…Thus, dynamic recruitment of various adaptive and innate populations mediating inflammation and antiviral function to the upper respiratory tract was observed during hospitalization with cell type numbers in convalescence that closely resembled levels measured in healthy donors. Of note, we did not observe an increase in nasal B cells in hospitalized patients, which corroborates observations that mucosal antibody levels seem reduced compared to systemic titres in hospitalized patients 12,29 .…”

“…Whether elevated levels of cytokines at the nasopharyngeal mucosae may influence viral transmissibility or reflects differences in the kinetic or extent of viral shedding will deserve further exploration. It will be also worth determining whether cytokines are elevated in blood samples from individuals infected with B.1.1.7, since a tissue compartmentalization of SARS-CoV-2 immune responses have been recently reported, with a role for the nasopharyngeal microbiome in regulating local and systemic immunity that determines COVID-19 clinical outcomes 18 .…”

“…We performed this analysis on the second Perturbed systemic production of cytokines is a hallmark of disease severity in COVD-19 patients [28][29][30][31] . It has also been reported a dysbiosis and a modification of cytokine profile at mucosal surfaces in severe patients 18 . In this previous study, performed on samples from individuals infected before B.1.1.7 spreading, cytokine responses were compartmentalized 18 samples.…”
