Autoantibodies against type I IFNs in patients with life-threatening COVID-19.

Paul Bastard, +140 more
- 23 Oct 2020 - 
TL;DR: A means by which individuals at highest risk of life-threatening COVID-19 can be identified is identified, and the hypothesis that neutralizing auto-Abs against type I IFNs may underlie critical CO VID-19 is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathological inflammation in patients with COVID-19: a key role for monocytes and macrophages.

TL;DR: The potentially pathological roles of macrophages during SARS-CoV-2 infection are described and ongoing and prospective therapeutic strategies to modulate macrophage activation in patients with COVID-19 are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronavirus biology and replication: implications for SARS-CoV-2.

TL;DR: The first discoveries that shape the current understanding of SARS-CoV-2 infection throughout the intracellular viral life cycle are summarized and relate that to the knowledge of coronavirus biology.

Chemokine up-regulation in SARS-coronavirus-infected, monocyte-derived human dendritic cells.

TL;DR: No increase in virus titer was detected in infected DCs and cell-culture supernatant, confirming that virus replication was incomplete and the lack of antiviral cytokine response against a background of intense chemokine up-regulation could represent a mechanism of immune evasion by SARS-CoV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus nsp1 protein suppresses host gene expression by promoting host mRNA degradation.

TL;DR: expression of nsp1, the most N-terminal gene 1 protein, prevented Sendai virus-induced endogenous IFN-β mRNA accumulation without inhibiting dimerization of IFN regulatory factor 3, a protein that is essential for activation of theIFN- β promoter.

Ten Strategies of Interferon Evasion by Viruses.

TL;DR: This Review examines the ten most common strategies that viruses use to subvert the IFN response with examples from publications appearing in the last 10 years of Cell Host & Microbe.

Pathogenic Influenza Viruses and Coronaviruses Utilize Similar and Contrasting Approaches To Control Interferon-Stimulated Gene Responses

TL;DR: Compared models of the human airway, transcriptomics and proteomics datasets were used to compare ISG response patterns following highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI) A virus, 2009 pandemic H1N1, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, and Middle East respiratory syndrome CoV infection, revealing similarities and differences in strategies to control the interferon and innate immune response.
