Integrated plasma proteomic and single-cell immune signaling network signatures demarcate mild, moderate, and severe COVID-19

Description

The biological determinants underlying the range of COVID-19 clinical manifestations are not fully understood. Here, over 1400 plasma proteins and 2600 single-cell immune features comprising cell phenotype, endogenous signaling activity, and signaling responses to inflammatory ligands are cross-sectionally assessed in peripheral blood from 97 patients with mild, moderate, and severe COVID-19 and 40 uninfected patients. Using an integrated computational approach to analyze the combined plasma and single-cell proteomic data, we identify and independently validate a multivariate model classifying COVID-19 severity (multi-class AUCtraining = 0.799, p-value = 4.2e-6; multi-class AUCvalidation = 0.773, p-value = 7.7e-6). Examination of informative model features reveals novel biological signatures of COVID-19 severity, including the dysregulation of JAK/STAT, MAPK/mTOR, and NF-κB immune signaling networks in addition to recapitulating known hallmarks of COVID-19. These results provide a set of early determinants of COVID-19 severity that may point to therapeutic targets for prevention and/or treatment of COVID-19 progression.

Notes

The data files contain:
- FCS files of mass cytometry measurements
- PatientCharacteristics: file containing clinical information regarding the patients. Column "Cohort" indicates which samples were used for training and which for validation.
- Penalization matrix: penalization matrix used to penalize the mass cytometry data
- Olink_NPXvalues: data from the Olink plasma proteomic assay. Proteomic values are provided in the arbitrary unit NPX
- CyTOF_FrequencySignaling_preprocessed: Frequencies and processed phosphosignaling responses of the mass cytometry dataset
- Correlation_matrix: Absolute spearman correlation coefficients of the chord diagram depicted in Figure 3D.
